Badshah released a Bengali, English, and Punjabi track featuring the gorgeous Jacqueline Fernandez as the leading lady in the music video this March. This cool new dance number is definitely a catchy and fun tune but it’s already sparked up a whole lot of controversy!
The Bengali lyrics of the song are taken from a classic folk song from the 70s by singer Ratan Kahar titled ‘Borolok-er beti lo.’ Kahar is quite poor and his music and lyrics have been plagiarized previously without credit and compensation. Though the song details do say that its a Bengali folk song but the original writer himself has not been credited.
