"They are complete copies of Pakistani songs."
Music composer Amaal Mallik has launched a scathing public attack on fellow composer Tanishk Bagchi without naming him directly.
The explosive posts came days after Tanishk’s now-deleted tweet about royalties from Saiyaara sparked a public row with Yash Raj Films.
Amaal took to X and referred to Tanishk through the pointed phrase “Mr Remix & Destroyer of Originals” throughout his posts.
He began by accusing the composer of paying for public relations and using old pictures of Amaal to generate media coverage.
Amaal wrote: “Dear Mr Remix & Destroyer of Originals.
“10 years too late, but I will show the world your aukaad.
“You don’t deserve my mention also after all that has gone down, so please mera 2017-18 ka photos leke articles likhwana bandh kar Lala.
“Paid PR ka paisa tum label se kama chuke ho, but kharach galat jagah kar rahe ho.
“Phir mujhe har saal call karke, ya mere manager ke saamne mera bhai banne ka dhong kyu karta hai re tu.
“Such unmanly behaviour man…Sheesh!”
Amaal then turned his attention specifically to Saiyaara and made a serious accusation about the film’s title track credits.
He wrote: “If I speak up about how you bagged the film Saiyaara, and stole the song right under Faheem Abdullah & Arsalan Nizami’s nose to make Mohit Suri take you in the film, then you will know.”
The composer then escalated his allegations dramatically by making claims involving female singers and professional misconduct.
He wrote: “Should I mention what you have done to female singers and their lives, Me too nahi, Me Three ho jaayega tujhpar.”
He further alleged: “Should I tell the world how you gave me a swear and asked me to leave certain films and songs cause you had bills to pay…..”
Amaal also revisited the broader royalty debate and claimed he had long warned composers to stand united against remakes.
He wrote: “Stop crying now like a little b**ch about royalties when I had told you & many others to be united.
“Kept calling you time and again trying to explain to you why the f**k you shouldn’t do ‘Aashiq Banaya Aapne’ & ‘Masakali.'”
He went on to defend Yash Raj Films and questioned Tanishk’s decision to criticise the banner that had supported his work:
“YRF is the clearest, most legal and easiest production house to work with and they won’t retaliate because of Mohit Suri’s intervention, the same man who got you to delete your petty post.
“You are composing for the next Yash Raj film, but you have no gratitude for the money and effort spent by them to make your copied song ‘Saiyaara’ a global anthem….Shame.”
He also made a striking allegation that ‘Saiyaara’ itself was copied from another existing track in the industry.
“You’re a bloody thief; your originals are also not originals.”
“They are complete copies of Pakistani songs, some other composer’s stolen songs, folk melody lifts or just straight copies from even people’s YouTube covers.”
Amaal also dragged T-Series and Bhushan Kumar into his posts, alleging Tanishk criticised the label privately but avoided doing so publicly.
He concluded his lengthy and explosive thread with a direct and unmistakable warning to the composer he had been addressing.
Amaal Mallik recently composed ‘Yeh Awarapan’ for Emraan Hashmi’s Awarapan 2, featuring Arijit Singh on vocals.
He has also been vocal on social media about alleged paid PR campaigns targeting him and his recent musical work.
