Mahesh Babu's 'Pilla Chao...' is blatant rip off from an Italian song

'Pilla Chao...', the popular track of The Businessman, is the latest song to enrol its name to the list of rip-offs. It has been discovered that the Telugu number is lifted from an Italian partisan song on World War II titled 'Bella ciao...'.

The fans of the original track has been expressing their anger on Youtube by dropping comments after they found that 'Pilla Chao...' has similarities between 'Bella Ciao...'. The Telugu track is composed by S Thaman. In the recent past, the music directors of Nenu Naa Rakshasi were accused of plagiarising the soundtracks from the popular albums of Michael Jackson.

However, the forthcoming movie stars Mahesh Babu and Kajal Aggarwal in the leads. The Businessman directed by Puri Jagannath has six songs of which three tracks have already become chartbusters.
