Now days when stealing the music from other films are quite common, Wajid, of the composer duo Sajid-Wajid came out clean regarding the music secrets of Rowdy Rathore.

Recently he confessed that a part of the music in their Rowdy Rathore’ score is borrowed from the original Telugu film Vikramarkudu. Directed by Prabhu Deva, Rowdy Rathore, that has Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha in the lead roles, is set for a June 1 release.

"There is a signature tune in Vikramarkudu, which we couldn’t avoid. It was an integral part of the theme in the Telugu film. Our producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who is very music-minded, our director Prabhu Deva and my brother Sajid decided that we needed to incorporate that refrain in the Hindi remake, so we did," said Wajid.

"We’ve taken the rights of the original music and then we’ve used it. We`ve also changed the original tune completely. But we still want to draw attention to the borrowed bits before others jump in gleefully and accuse us of plagiarism," he adds tongue-in-cheek that there is nothing underhand about the appropriation.

Well, we think that’s an honest confession to be made!
