Tanishk Bagchi Reacts To Claims That Saiyaara Title Song Is Copied From One Direction Track: "Whatever I Do..."
New Delhi: Mohit Suri's musical Saiyaara has been making waves on social media, courtesy its music. Tanishk Bagchi, who is one of the composers of the song along with singers Faheem Abdullah, Arslan Nizami, now reacted to the controversy that the title song of the film has been copied from One Direction's Night Changes and Jubin Nautiyal's Humnava Mere in a chat with India Today. What's Happening While social media is flooded with reels featuring Saiyaara title track, a section of the Internet claimed that the song has been copied from One Direction's Night Changes and Jubin Nautiyal's Humnava Mere. Speaking to India Today, Tanishk Bagchi said, "Whatever I do, people will have something to say because they don't have [anything better to do]. They keep on looking for opportunities to put me down. But ultimately, the song will go wherever it's destined to, and that's what's happening with Saiyaara too. As for the comparisons, if you look at the melody, the chords are the same. The A minor scale has just about 3-4 chords but every melody has a different soul. That doesn't mean that anything was stolen. Even if you can do that, it's really difficult to make it a hit." "All said and done, we didn't steal anything. The similarities are fine, it can happen, but it's not like we did it on purpose. Idhar se utha ke udhar nahi kiya (we didn't pick and add anything). We worked on the emotion of the song, and that worked. That's the magic of the track 'Saiyaara'," he said in his defence. "The best thing is that it's an original Hindi song, a pure Hindi song. There is no collaboration with foreign artists; everyone associated is home-grown, so that's a big achievement for me. I did have an intuition that this could go viral, but I never expected it to top global charts. I think it's purely the hard work on the song and the pure intention that worked in its favour," he said. Saiyaara title track featured on Spotify's viral top 50 tracks, along with making it to the top five global hit songs on the platform. In A Nutshell

Is Saiyaara's title track copied from Jubin Nautiyal and One Direction?
Actors Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's 'Saiyaara' is making headlines, and for various reasons. From the highest opening for a debutant to fans going crazy for the movie in the theatres. But there have been other headlines speculating whether the film was copied from a Korean movie, 'A Moment To Remember'. Now people have moved to the movie's songs, and if they have been copied from the former British boy-band One Direction and Indian singer Jubin specifically, the title track of Saiyaara, a soaring ballad that's been topping charts and social reels, is now under fire for sounding, let's say, suspiciously familiar. The whispers began online, and now they've grown louder. Is 'Saiyaara's' main theme copied from One Direction's 'Night Changes' and Jubin Nautiyal's 'Humnava Mere'? The intro is a haunting piano melody that sets the tone for 'Saiyaara's' heartbreak anthem. But if you've ever cried to 'Night Changes' during your teenage years, you'll notice something jarringly similar. The two intros are near identical, right down to the key, the note progression, and the emotional timbre. The only major difference? Saiyaara's tempo is slowed, almost like someone pressed the heartbreak button twice. As the song progresses, listeners online claim that the rest of the composition borrows heavily from Jubin Nautiyal's 'Humnava Mere'. From the rhythm to the pacing, the similarity is undeniable. In fact, a fan video circulating on Facebook even lines up both tracks side by side, and the resemblance is hard to a look at the video: (Video Credit: Facebook/Sunit Singh Manisha)Inspiration in music isn't new.

But with social media receipts now part of every public court, the debate continues to gain the accusations, 'Saiyaara' is still drawing crowds, and the chemistry between Panday and Padda, paired with the film's emotional core, is connecting with audiences. The film's blend of drama, romance, and music is clearly working.- Ends

"Earlier, it was very difficult to dream of becoming an artist": Singer Jubin Nautiyal hails evolution of Indian music industry
By Palash Srivastava New Delhi [India], June 24 (ANI): Singer Jubin Nautiyal praised the current scenario of the Indian music industry, calling it more approachable and easier for upcoming artists to compose songs with the help of technology. In an interview with ANI, Nautiyal hailed the evolution of the music industry in India while referencing the recent collaborations between Indian and international artists, including Ed Sheeran and Arijit Singh's new hit song 'Sapphire'. The 'Raatan Lambiyaan' singer expressed his happiness at the consumption of Indian music in foreign countries and English music in India. 'Now, there is no national and international, it has all become one. And there's so much English music being consumed in India, and there's so much Indian music being consumed outside. So it's all the same now,' said Jubin Nautiyal. Jubin Nautiyal shot to fame with his song 'Ek Mulaqat' from the film 'Sonali Cable' in 2014. The singer gradually built his diverse discography with the help of memorable hits like 'Kuch Din (Kaabil), 'Bawara Mann' (Jolly LLB 2), 'Akh Lad Jaave' (Loveyaatri) and others. The singer called the present scenario of the Indian music industry a 'great time' for the musicians, as now they can compose their music independently without the help of a music label. 'It's a great time for artists, all the upcoming artists. It's a great time because now you can release your own music. You don't need an absolute music label to release your music. You can do your own thing as an independent artist,' said Nautiyal. Looking back at his struggling days, the singer said that earlier, the path to success for music artists was quite 'difficult' as it required a lot of struggle to reach a breakthrough stage of their career. He added that music composition has become easier and more approachable due to technological advancements. 'Earlier, it was very difficult to dream of becoming an artist. There was a lot of way to even reach a point where people will accept that, Okay, now you should start struggling in your journey to become an artist. But now you can dream and figure it out. Today, making music has become so easy because of technology, and singing has become so easy. Everything has become so much easier and more approachable. So I think it's just showing the power of music as how deeply everybody wants to connect to music and do a lot of crazy things in music,' said Jubin Nautiyal. Nautiyal has been in the music industry for over a decade. He believes that music has become more approachable and will blossom in the coming five years. 'In five years, I think we'll be, we'll multiply at least four to five times as an industry. It's amazing. Today, anybody can approach music. Earlier, you had to buy a cassette to even start, and a CD to even start. But now, just one click and you can listen to a song that was released in Africa 15-20 years back. So that's the power we are at right now,' said Jubin Nautiyal. Jubin Nautiyal's recent song, 'Barbaad,' has created a buzz in the entertainment industry. It is the second song from the upcoming movie Saiyaara, directed by Mohit Suri and starring debutant Ahaan Panday in the lead role. The movie is produced under the banner of Yash Raj Films. It is slated to release in theatres worldwide on July 18, 2025. (ANI)
