MUMBAI: Anu Malik is being called out for plagiarising Israel's national anthem titled Hatikvah for the song Mera Mulk Mera Desh from Ajay 1996 film Diljale. The music director is being trolled on Twitter for "copying" the exact tune of Israel's national anthem that was played at the Tokyo Olympics after Israeli gymnast Artem Dolgopyat won a gold medal. The clip of Israel's national anthem at the Tokyo Olympics went viral instantly as many viewers brought the matter to attention that Anu Malik, who has been trolled for plagiarising music in the past, has once again repeated history by "stealing" Israel's national anthem.
"So, Anu Malik didn't spare even Israeli national anthem while copying tune for Diljale's Mera Mulk Mera Desh in 1996. Thanks to the internet we now know this," said a user, while another wrote, "The National anthem tune has some familiarity to the Indian song... Mera Mulk Mera Desh? Or is it just me?"
A Twitter user wrote: "Anu Malik copying the national anthem of a country to make a Bollywood song is so Anu Malik!"

This so-called singer Anu Malik had not spared even the national anthem of a nation while copying.

In the past, he has been accused of copying other musicians' work. The singer has been called out for copying Linear's Sending All My Love for Neend Churayi Meri from Ishq and the music of Toto Cutugno's L'Italiano for the song Nasha Ye Pyar Ka Nasha.
