In
the
highly
competitive
glamour
world,
even
a
silly
mistake
can
cost
a
friendship.
Who
knows
this
better
but
Pritam,
the
reputed
Bollywood
music
director
of
"Life...
in
a
Metro".
Pritam
was
previously
a
guitarist
with
Bangla
band
Chandrabindoo
before
he
came
to
Mumbai.
Pritam
has
recently
given
the
music
for
new
film
Kaise
Kahein.
Chandrabindoo
members
are
now
alleging
that
one
of
the
songs
in
the
movie,
"Aarzoo
hai
pyar
ka",
has
been
lifted
from
the
band's
hit
track
"Bromha
Jaanen".
Anindo
Chatterjee,
the
lead
vocalist
and
lyricist
of
Chandrabindoo,
feels
bad
about
the
turn
of
events.
"It's
good
to
know
that
our
music
has
the
potential
to
do
well
in
Hindi
songs,
but
some
recognition
should
also
be
given
to
the
original
piece
from
where
it
is
taken."
What
hurts
the
band
members
even
more
is
that
they
are
still
friends
with
Pritam.
"There
should
have
been
some
discussion
with
us
in
this
matter.
A
fan
from
Bhopal
sent
a
link
of
the
film
song
to
Upal
(another
vocalist
and
lyricist
of
the
band).
The
similarity
was
obvious."
Whenever
the
band
does
shows
in
Mumbai
the
members
make
sure
they
meet
up
with
Pritam.
Anindo
says
Pritam
now
keeps
calling
them
up
to
clear
his
name.
The
music
director
claims
the
composition
is
Imran
Ali's
and
he
had
nothing
to
do
with
it.
Logically,
the
explanation
doesn't
make
much
sense.
But
the
band
is
hesitating
to
take
drastic
action
for
friendship's
sake.
Only
the
concerned
music
company
can
take
legal
action
now.
In
the
bid
to
gain
fame,
it
seems
like
Pritam
is
on
the
verge
of
losing
some
of
his
most
genuine
friends.
