Katrina is a copycat

er ‘Chikni Chameli’ number is allegedly a rip-off of a Marathi song

Katrina’s superhot item number ‘Chikni Chameli’ in Karan Johar’s upcoming movie ‘Agneepath’ is in the headlines once again. The song is apparently a rip-off of a Marathi song ‘Kombadi palali’ that featured in the movie ‘Jatra’ in 2006. However, brothers Atul and Ajay Gogavale who scored the music for the original Marathi track were quick to defend themselves. “Yes ‘Chikni Chameli’ is a Hindi version of our Marathi song. We had to make the Hindi version even better. So it’s different in a way,” they said.

Sources have revealed that singer Shreya Ghoshal has lent her voice to Katrina Kaif in the song which is touted to be the next ‘Sheila Ki Jawani’. Now, that’s a tall order to match. But when it’s Kat grooving to a hot number, does it matter whether it’s an original or a copy?
