Ever since the release of the song Bulleya from Aishwarya Rai, Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma starter Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, social media has been flooded by the comments that the track is similar to Papa Roach's Last Resort.
It was also said that the guitar riff which appears throughout the song is actually a replayed sample of Genghis Khan by Iron Maiden. A few others on the social media opined that the song was inspired by Sayonee which was composed and sung by the popular Pakistani band Junoon.
SpotboyE.com got in touch with the producer of the track Sunny MR who denied the allegations and emphasised that the track was not inspired by any of these songs. "The Bulleya guitar riff is, musically, no where close to any of the songs it's being referred to. The notes are totally different. The riff is in a simple 1/16 timing widely used in many genres not limited to any specific song. This timing is also used for many background score pieces. It's like calling a rock song a copy of another rock song just because they use the same set of instruments," said Sunny.
