Dil Kyun Yeh Mera-Kites Movie (Full Song)

Madona

Last week Ryan and I were talking about how the excessive Madonna references in Lady GaGa's "Alejandro" video don't bother us in the same way Christina Aguilera's "Not Myself Tonight" homages do. Is GaGa more deserving of borrowing from the Queen of Pop? [ed note: possibly]

I began to wonder if it's possible for a modern day female pop star to completely avoid referencing Madge's work. The woman has been performing for close to three decades, so if you have an idea there's a good chance she's had it first.

Now a new video, made by some very dedicated fans (via), edits together the most egregious ways in which LaGa has ripped off Madonna throughout her videos. It takes a few big leaps but also makes some astute observations. Give it a gander and decide if the similarities are coincidence, homage or copyright infringement.

Shah Rukh's camaraderie with Bachchan parivaar at the London premiere of Raavan was for all to see. Spotted in a humorous mood, SRK in his trademark style pulled Abhishek's leg saying he had come here to see him in a lungi.

On being asked what is he looking forward to in the movie, SRK caught Abhishek by hand, and said, "I've come here to see Abhishek in a lungi."

A reporter further teased Abhishek asking if he knew how to wear a lungi. Abhishek said in a highly accented tone, "I haven't worn it before. But it's just like wrapping a towel around."

Besides pulling Abhishek's leg SRK didn't forget to praise the film. "It's one of the finest film being ever made; one of the finest stories I've ever heard. I'm sure the movie will do very well."
