Jumma Chumma vs Tamma Tamma: Bollywood plagiarised the same song twice, composers fought for credit | Bollywood News

Jumma Chumma vs Tamma Tamma: Bollywood plagiarised the same song twice, composers fought for credit | Bollywood News

Music has always been an essential part of Hindi films. In fact, Indian films are uniquely known around the world for their song and dance routine, and the audience here is quite proud of it. For decades, the audience has been fed a steady diet of film songs and at one point, the popularity of film songs nearly eroded independent music in the country. This led to the dominance of film music composers. But, all power comes with great responsibility, and unfortunately, many music composers here took their audience for a ride. The idea of plagiarising songs isn’t a new one in India, and shockingly, it’s not even looked down upon. So when Bappi Lahiri and Laxmikant-Pyarelal both “took inspiration” from the same Guinean song, neither was embarrassed, but both of them called the other one “unethical” for copying the same song as them. ‘Ethics’ of plagiarism in Bollywood music There is no way this would fly in 2026, but the early 1990s were a simpler time, for there was no internet and if someone …

Archana Puran Singh and Parmeet Sethi’s son Aayushmaan Sethi was recently duped of Rs 87,000 in an alleged credit card scam. The incident was revealed by the actor-couple’s elder son, Aaryamann Sethi, in his YouTube vlog on Aary Vlogs. While the situation initially caused panic, the family eventually laughed it off, joking that Aayushmaan is now a “regular customer” of fraudsters, given that he had previously lost Rs 80,000 in a similar incident. A segment from Aaryamann’s latest vlog shows a visibly panicked Aayushmaan announcing, “My credit card got swiped for Rs 87,000.” Archana, seated beside him, immediately responded, “Just cancel it.

However, MS Dhoni has been at the forefront of the franchises successful reign and Fleming preferring to be in the background. In the last two seasons, with Dhoni stepping aside and Fleming leading the charge, and the franchise’s performance witnessing a dip, the spotlight has shifted to Kiwi. While the likes of Gautam Gambhir and Andy Flower have walked away with accolades, the story isn’t the same with Fleming. And asked whether he has got due credit for winning the five titles, Fleming said, “No, it’s not really. It’s actually purely the players,” he said on the eve of their match against Delhi Capitals. “For me, it just gives us another year coaching. And it’s always been the case. The players do it. The coaching off the field is really important, but the performances on the field win titles. And, yes, we play a …

RBI extends 450-day export credit benefit till June 30

The Reserve Bank of India on Tuesday extended the enhanced export credit period of up to 450 days till June 30, 2026, to support exporters facing disruptions due to the ongoing West Asia crisis.
