Satyamev Jayate anthem lifted from Euphoria

Sunday was an afternoon to bear in mind with Aamir Khan's TV debut that had all of the nation talking about more serious issues than simply candy floss entertainment on television. Close at the heels of the show's success comes a problem with the band Euphoria alleging that the chorus of the show's 22-minute anthem 'Satyamev Jayate' have been lifted from the band's decade-old song that goes by the similar name.

Apparently, the lead singer of Euphoria, Palash Sen, was shocked to listen to the chorus of composer Ram Sampath's version because it is precisely kind of like the song with the similar name that Euphoria released in 2000. Palash has since sent a legal notice to them.

Palash further adds that had the composer asked him for his song, he would have agreed to offer it without inquiring for any compensation, except a small credit to the band. At the other hand, Ram Sampath denied having any knowledge of the legal notice and refused to touch upon the matter.
