"Almost every Bollywood movie song is copied like the tune and they also have copied japanese songs and also old/new pakistani songs," said a fan. "I thought so, it was copied, from somewhere," said another fan. "We knew you are a legend and true musician from the core of the heart. Unfortunately, we have cheater neighbors. They do not have the minds to work. They thought, it would be easy to pick any song or music cheaters always be cheats. But legends and their lyrics never die. All the best wishes, you are one of my favorite," added another fan.
