No, dear Gops. There is no debate about that. It is 100% unethical of Hindi makers not to credit the original composer whose tunes were blatantly used. -- btw, ever since ARR has come full force in Hindi, the piracy of his songs by other Hindi MDs has got stopped. There are no more outright copies like several versions of Muqabla. -- Rawat
