Amitabh interview clarifying Jumma Chumma Controversy

Amitabh interview 1991. The Controversy arosed as Jumma chumma became super hit song even before the release of film 'Hum'.Both hit songs Jumma Chumma and Tamma Tamma (Madhuri Sanjay Starer)sounded similar tunes ,the main conflict arrosed as to which song composer should have been given its due credit. Watch it how Amitabh clarified it.
The debate has been raging for more than fifteen years. Many able men - heroes, great thinkers, all - on both sides have fallen, without a solution in sight. Who would win in a fight between the songs, Jumma Chumma De De from Hum and Tamma Tamma Loge from Thanedaar.
Brief note if you were either a Mooninite up until last night, or just too young to know what I'm talking about:
In 1990-91, Indians were in possession of a record by Guinea native Mory Kante. The song in question was called Tamma Tamma, and it became the inspiration for two songs featured in two different Hindi films. Ignoring the fact that they had both ripped off the same song, the Laxmikant-Pyarelal camp and the Bhappi Lahiri camp began pointing fingers, each accusing the other of having stolen original music from them. Laximikant-Pyarelal's version was to go into the Amitabh movie Hum (1991), while the Bhappida song was meant for the Sanjay Dutt vehicle, Thanedaar (1990). Although the movies were released within months of each other, Thanedaar didn't actually see the light of day until much later because of problems with its release date.

I'am from Guinea (in West africa). For us there is no doubt that the beat of the song was ripped from Mory Kante 's Tama.

Can anybody sumarize what Amitabh is saying in this interview??????

[ifthyder]

Being a guinea resident , i am amazed, how do you know Amitabh? do you watch his films how do u understand language then ?

[AksheeShadow]

please read about origin of urdu. and stop ruining indian videos

[Kissingscenes]

Now if i say

English = ''seems like u don't knw much abt ur language''

Urdu = ''Lagta hai aap ko apni zuban ke bare mein zada ilm nahin''

Pure Hindi = ''Lagta hai aap ko apni bhasha ke bare mein adhik gyaan nahin''

If u check closely, both the sentences in Hindi and urdu. There r only few words different.

Much = adhik (sanskrit derived) in HINDI

Much = zada (arabic or turkish derived) in URDU

you = aap (sanskrit derived) in both urdu and hindi

IF STILL U DON GET IT THEN U NEVER WILL

@dantato2

He is saying that music is created by Music Director, lyrics are written by lyricist, actions are directed by directors... we actors are just the puppets of them, and we professionally do what they command us to. So it'd be better if you go and ask them. Also, this controversy about two Indian movies having the same music in their songs.

[MusafirHoonYaro]

Amitabh-ji - aapko koyee safaayee dene ki zaroorat naheen hai. Sir - you have performed wonderfully in the picturization of this song just as you have done in every other performance.

very hot man

[nsmarajit]

@ifthyder wo sasura pagla gaya hai

[arene40]

Her dress swaying around effortlessly, All the wetness, him waving his big hose. Ay caramba!!!! Got to go and THINK about this.

[arene40]

Oh man. Just when I thought that I couldn't crush on Amitji anymore. I am 20 years younger than him but because the cinema showed his movies twenty years later, I thought he was my age. i crushed him when he was younger. I LOVED him when he matured. Now seeing this clip, I am so LUSTED. and i am a native born african american woman from BOSTON!!! Go figure. Amitji is the BESTEST,

good old VHS so unclear!

@Kissingscenes trying to explain to the trouble mongers is futile...they have their agenda, so I feel our best bet is, we stick to doing things we do, & not change to their ways. They thrive only if we change.

[Kissingscenes]

@aparaajita10 AGREED !! Thts wat i am tryin to say to all these pple !! thanks

[aparaajita10]

@Kissingscenes Hindi was used being in India in its various dialects before the muslas came to India. Their languages were Turkish, Arabic, Persian. And once they settled in India, they started using the Indian languages interspersed with their words either in pure form or simplified. That is how urdu evolved. When you look at the history of evolution of languages, you will see that before the arabs & Persians came to India, there was no urdu, just as before 1947, there was no pakistan.
