Makers of Alia Bhatt's Sadak 2 song Ishq Kamaal accused of plagiarism

Mahesh Bhatt's Sadak 2 has been the talk of the town of late and recently the trailer of the film dropped online. Now, music producer  Shezan Saleem aka JO-G has claimed that a song that plays in the trailer is very similar to a composition he had produced back in the year 2011. Taking to his Twitter he was pointing out the similarities between the two songs.  He mentions  in his tweet that his song from 2011, Rabba Ho has a very similar tune to Sadak 2's song Ishq Kamal and he wants to bring this similarity to everyone's notice.

He wrote in a tweet, hours after the release of Sadak 2’s trailer, “What do we do about this. Copied from a song that I produced in Pakistan and launched in 2011. Let’s talk guys.” The attached video, which has been shot on a phone, shows Shezan narrating details about the similarities, and playing portions from both songs to prove his point. Sadak 2 is a sequel to 1991 hit Sadak, also directed by Mahesh Bhatt and starring his daughter Pooja and Sanjay Dutt. Sanjay Dutt, who reprises his role as a driver named Ravi in the new film, announced a day before the trailer released that he was taking a break for medical treatment. Sadak 2, in which Alia Bhatt stars as a young woman working on exposing a godman, will release later this month on Disney+Hotstar. The film also stars Aditya Roy Kapur, Makarand Deshpande and Gulshan Grover.
