Adnan Sami in 'Bhar Do Jholi Meri'

While many were talking about Adnan Sami Khan's comeback in Bajrangi Bhaijaan in the not-so-liked rendition of 'Bhar Do Jholi', it turned out that the singer, filmmakers, distributors as well as music distributors had never acquired the rights to use the popular qawali.

The qawali's copyright holders, EMI Pakistan, has issued a legal notice that bars the film from using the song without the fulfillment of legal formalities. 'Bhar Do Jholi' is the kalaam of Purnam Allahabadi and was first sung by the late Sabri Brothers, Haji Ghulam Fareed Sabri and Haji Maqbool Sabri.

The notice dated July 9 2015 is addressed to Kabir Khan, Salman Khan, Adnan Sami Khan, T-Series and Media Concepts (T-Series' representative in Pakistan). It talks about the popularity of qawali and accepts the practice of their reworking by various artists as long as 'original copyrights get the rightful remunerations for their creations':
 
Bhar Do Jholi' is the kalaam of Purnam Allahabadi .. HOW CAN EMI can claim ownership? kalam of legendary poets are sung by different singers.
 
Woh! This time the CopyCat industry has stolen our Qawali, not surprised at all.
