Mumbai: Farhan Saeed recently called out Salim Merchant for stealing his composition in the latest song Haareya. Farhan claimed that Salim's song is a copy of his previously released track Roiyaan.
Taking to his Twitter, Farhan expressed his disappointment towards Salim's new song Haareya saying that it is a total copy of his song Roiyaan released in 2014.

Someone just sent me @salim_merchant song HAREYA, which is a total copy of my song ROIYAAN. I wonder they have the audacity to call themselves artists when they steal someone's work. Karna hi hai to pooch ke kuro aur ager poochna nahin hai to at least acha to kuro!#stopstealing

Reacting to Farhan's accusation of plagiarism, Salim called it a coincidence saying that he never heard his song.
He replied, "Farhan I just heard your song. It’s a mere coincidence that the chorus of Haareya is like your song. To be honest I’ve never heard it before. It happens many a times when notes have a natural progression from each other. @Sulaiman & I have a track record of never plagiarising."

Further, Farhan agreed to him saying that another coincidence is that they have the same lyricist Kumar.
Farhan wrote, "@salim_merchant and @Sulaiman @salim_merchant If you say so! Another co-incidence is we have the same lyricist! Anyway good luck!"

Salim, one half of the popular composer duo Salim-Sulaiman, further defended himself saying that if he had to copy, he would have done that earlier in his career.
"If I had to copy, I would have done that way long back in my career. I really wish I had heard your song before I made mine. Would have surely made changes to our composition to make it sound different from yours. Anyway, hope you understand," he tweeted.
