The Bangladesh-based Version

Recently a song from Fizza Ali Meerza’s production, Kooch Na Karin was copied frame by frame by a Bangladeshi singer named Shahid.

You can watch it here:

The original single from the OST of Load Wedding was composed by Shani Arshad. Azhar Abbas lent his vocals to the track.

While Shahid’s song is an original composition, the visuals are an almost perfect replica of Kooch Na Karin.

Even Nabeel Qureshi’s associate director Kamran Lodhi noticed the ‘similarities’.

The associate director made it a point to call out Shahid for plagiarizing Kooch Na Karin. Qureshi was just shocked.

“I couldn’t believe it!”

Not the First Incident of Its Kind

The director is shocked even though this is not the first time this has happened. Previously his film Actor in Law got an Oriya rendition (we gotta stop calling it that).

Actor in Law was also copied frame-by-frame in a regional ‘Oriya’ language movie. Nabeel Qureshi claims that even Batti Gul Meter Chalu was a copy of Actor in Law. 

The 2018 film Batti Gul Meter Chalu cast Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor.

Load Wedding was a romantic comedy that raises the social evil of dowry in desi wedding. Recently the cast of Load Wedding celebrated the anti-dowry resolution in the Punjab Assembly.
