MUMBAI - Legendary Indian singer Late Mangeshkar has hit out against top Pakistani singer Atif Aslam over copying her song
She has said she has not heard Atif Aslam’s remake of her song *Chalte Chalte* and does not want to hear it either.
Responding to a question regarding her reaction to Aslam’s version, Lata told* IANS* that she has not heard it and “I don’t want to hear it”.
“This trend of remixing old songs saddens me. Where is the creativity in simply lifting acknowledged, beloved classics and shuffling the notes around? I’ve even heard that the lyrics are changed in the remixes. By whose consent?" she asked.
She further said, "The original poets and composers wrote what they had to. Nobody has the right to tamper with the creativity of these great composers and lyricists."
