This is not the first time blatant plagiarism happens to Trinidadian music. In Brazil Geronimo did a version of a song by Lord Kitchner, named it "Jubiaba", and listed himself as the author in his album. I actually watched an interview where he said: "When I made Jubiaba"... Later Os Paralamas do Sucesso recorded Jubiabá and gave proper credit to the author. I viewed that as an "in your face" to Geronimo.

It was great that lord shorty gave credit to Indians about om shanti om. LP should have similary given credit to him for the song though.

@prateekluthra911 Kishore Kumar actually copied it from Lord Shorty

One of the greatest songs ever produced in Trinidad. I can still see my father singing this song and sipping his coffee with a smile of contentment on his face. Love you dad! Thank you Shorty.

@prateekluthra911 you got it backwards...
I am shocked at how obviously this was ripped off for "Om Shanti Om" in the 1980 movie Karz. Shorty really should have been given credit.

I completely agree with you. Kishore Kumar ruled in the Indian version. But Laxmikant Pyarelal are still wrong for not giving proper credit for their version of this song.
