As a lifestyle expert with decades of experience in the music industry, I find myself deeply moved by the recent credit controversy surrounding Abhijeet Bhattacharya, Shah Rukh Khan, and Dua Lipa. Having witnessed the dynamic evolution of Bollywood music over the years, I can’t help but reflect on how the industry has grown from humble beginnings to a global phenomenon.
On Sunday, Abhijeet Bhattacharya’s son vigorously responded to Shah Rukh Khan being acknowledged after Dua Lipa performed the viral blend of Levitating and Woh Ladki Jo. He voiced his displeasure as he felt that his father’s name was left out from the credits. At the same time, for the first time in this ongoing credit dispute, the established singer made it clear to Dua Lipa that the song was originally by Shah Rukh Khan.
Abhijeet Bhattacharya told Hindustan Times that the controversy is unnecessary and compared those stirring it to pesky mosquitoes. He said, “They are like mosquitoes; they neither take nor give. If a leader wins, they find joy in a small morsel and dance on the streets.
He further mentioned, “Dua was made to understand that this song is Shah Rukh’s.” He stated that the global sensation must have thought that Shah Rukh Khan was a singer like Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley, but nobody told her that Khan was a “superstar” like Sylvester Stallone.
He pointed out that it wasn’t anyone’s fault as Mr. Abhijeet Bhattacharya didn’t sing the song, but he did mention that there’s a credit dispute among him, SRK, and Dua. Bhattacharya recalled receiving numerous calls from various parts of the world when the song was played during the concert.
He noted, “If there’s no need for credit, what use is it to me now?” He continued by stating that although Baadshah’s music was popular, the film itself didn’t fare well when it initially came out.
Bhattacharya acknowledged that the tune didn’t initially gain much popularity, but it exploded after DJ Ruchir Kulkarni’s mash-up, which became viral four years ago. He highlighted that one of its advantages is the inclusion of Shah Rukh Khan in the song.
The 66-year-old expressed that there’s no issue between him and the celeb, and during the playing of the tune, others could tell he was speaking as well. On a final remark, he added, “I believe he too must find it all quite entertaining.
