Bipasha Basu's Song Stirs Buzz for Similarity to Beyoncé;s 'Beautiful Liar'
Bipasha Basu's new song in the movie "Jodi Breakers" is creating a lot of buzz in the web because it sounds very similar to Beyoncé and Shakira's song "Beautiful Liar."
When asked about the similarity, Basu's music director Salim Merchant said: "I don't really know which song you are talking about, but what we have created is an original number."
"We make sure none of our music sounds similar to anyone else's," he said according to Indian Celebrities' website Mid Day.
Bipasha Basu also addressed the claims.
"Salim-Sulaiman first made the composition and presented it to me. I really love their works. And I made my manager, family members and friends listen to it, and everyone simply loved it," the singer said according to the Hindu Times.
On the similarity to Beyoncé's number, however, she told Mid Day: "Oh really? I didn't know that."
