Mumbai: Sajid Nadiadwala’s latest offering, ‘Housefull 5’, is proving to be a colossal hit at the box office, drawing massive crowds with its extensive and star-studded cast. Famous film critic, Taran Adarsh wrote on X, “‘HOUSEFULL 5’ STORMS INTERNATIONAL MARKETS – AKSHAY KUMAR’S BIGGEST OPENER OVERSEAS… #Housefull5 is enjoying a triumphant run in international markets… Grosses $ 4 million [and counting] in its opening weekend – the highest ever for an #AkshayKumar starter.”
However, amidst its roaring success, the film’s chart-topping song, “Laal Pari,” finds itself at the center of a “copying” controversy, with choreographer Remo D’Souza facing accusations of plagiarism.
The allegations stem from renowned content creator Sandeep Brahman, who claims that a specific dance step in “Laal Pari” has been lifted directly from his original work without due credit. Brahman, known for his distinctive dance moves, recently took to Instagram to highlight the striking similarity between his “signature” step and a prominent move featured in the hit song.
“Laal Pari,” which has become a viral sensation, showcases the lead actors donning hats and performing a head-shaking step that Sandeep Brahman asserts is his unique creation. To substantiate his claim, Brahman shared an old video of himself performing the identical move, juxtaposing it with the song’s choreography.
In his emotional Instagram post, Brahman wrote, “You all have seen my signature moves. My move has been copied in the song Laal Pari from Housefull 5. Many of my friends DMed me on Instagram. So, I double-checked on Instagram and YouTube. They have neither mentioned me nor given me credit. I don’t know what is happening. I want you guys to share this video with as many people as possible. I want you to support me.”
The accusation has ignited a debate on social media, with fans and industry observers weighing in on the originality of choreography in Bollywood. As ‘Housefull 5’ continues its triumphant run at the box office, all eyes are now on Remo D’Souza and the film’s production team to address Sandeep Brahman’s claims.
