TIL Desk Bollywood/ Bollywood Filmmaker Anubhav Sinha has claimed that a campaign song released by the BJP in Bihar, ahead of the state assembly elections, is a copy of his rap song, Bambai Mein Ka Baa.
The Bihar BJP song is titled ‘Bihar Mein Ee Ba (this is what Bihar has)’, and seeks to highlight the state’s healthcare and education infrastructure, the credit facilities provided in the wake of the lockdown, and other steps taken by the NDA government in Bihar.
Sinha’s song, released last month, features actor Manoj Bajpayee, and comes with the message that it is the absence of opportunities in their home states that forces people from Bihar to look for jobs in Mumbai, often in difficult conditions. Both Sinha and Bajpayee trace their roots to Bihar.
