Mangeshkar Sisters- Usha And Lata Slam Sonakshi Sinha's Mungda; Say, "It's Been Ripped Off"
The makers of Total Dhamaal have been receiving flak for film's new dance number Mungda. And now, the original singer of the song Usha Mangeshkar, composer Rajesh Roshan and also legendary singer, Lata Mangeshkar have slammed the makers for ‘ripping it off’
Not only
netizens have been slamming the recreated version of the iconic song Mungda
from Indra Kumar’s Total Dhamaal featuring Sonakshi Sinha, the original and
legendary singer of the song has also blasted the makers for ‘ripping of it in
arbitrary manner". According to a report in Deccan Chronicle, Mangeshkar
sisters- Usha and Lata ji have reacted on the latest version.
Usha
Mangeshkar told the leading website, “Our songs were created after a great deal
of thought and they were done with sensitivity and care. To rip them off in
this arbitrary manner is not correct.”
Further, Bharat Ratna recipient Lata ji slammed the makers for not taking the approval from them before recreating the song. She said, “We are not asked if we approve or not. No one seeks our consent before using our songs. Is that right?”
Music director Rajesh Roshan, who composed the original, has also shared his objection and said, “I think there is less of inspiration and more of perspiration in the music industry. The filmmakers have lost confidence in creating new songs.” He further added, “I gave Usha Mangeshkarji the song to sing. She sang several songs for me and was one of those competent singers who could breathe life into a tune.”
