There is no denying the fact that Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone’s Pathaan is one of the most awaited films of 2023. The excitement for the film is sky-high considering the fact that SRK returns to the screen in a full-fledged role after a huge gap of four years. The superstar was last seen in his home production Zero (2018), which also starred Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif in lead roles.

While the makers are yet to drop the trailer of the film, they recently treated fans with the first song from the action entertainer, called Besharam Rang. Filmed on Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone across breathtakingly beautiful locations, the song boasts of upbeat music and sizzling chemistry between the duo and is still trending on YouTube.


While a number of people are busy enjoying the song, some users on social media have accused composers Vishal and Sheykhar of plagiarising the initial beats of it. Yes, you read that right.

Many Twitter users have alleged that the beat of the song sounds like that of ‘Makeba’. To prove their point, they have put together edits of both the beats playing back-to-back. Have a look!

In addition to Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, Pathaan also features John Abraham in an important role. Helmed by Siddharth Anand, the much-anticipated film is scheduled to land in cinemas on January 25, 2023.
