Copycats

I am writing this entry just as an observation. Remember the song tu hi meri shab hain from the Hindi movie Gangster? Well, that was sung by KK. There is a song called my heart is beating from the Telugu movie Jalsa. It is a song that one would say has been 'inspired' by the former. This song has also been sung by KK who in turn a Malayali. The music director might have thought that if he were copying the song, he might as well use the same singer :P It's a beautiful song though, both lyrics wise and tune wise (kinda different from the original, not a total ripoff :) )

This is the Telugu song.

This is the Hindi song.

This is an article on KK.

Update: From my cousin, Gayatri - this is the 'inspiration' for tu hi meri shab hain, Oliver Shanti & Friends - ‘Sacral Nirvana’.
