Plagiarism is relevant to different musical styles in different ways. Music plagiarism is defined as using tune, or melody that would closely imitate with another author’s music without proper attribution (Keyt 1988 Stav 2014). In contrast, as a “creative art”, music is subject to Intellectual Property, and Copyright Laws. For many years, music industry is controlled by “customary laws”, which are not obligatory and therefore subject to violation (Stav 2014). However, it is not clear whether similar focus has been made in the music industry.

During the investigation, it was possible to identify a vast number of plagiarised tunes, snippets, or even the full songs.

This study has taken the initiative to investigate the extent of plagiaristic activities within one Indian cinematic music industry. Whilst a vast majority of Indian cinemagoers may not have noticed these plagiarised tunes, some journalists and vigilant music lovers have noticed these activities. Since the expectations of the public for songs that are enjoyable are high, many music directors are seeking elsewhere to “ borrow” tunes.
Unlike the traditional music, the Indian cinematic music is extremely popular amongst the public. It may occur either by stealing a musical idea (a melody or motif) or sampling (a portion of one sound, or tune is copied into a different song). Music plagiarism is defined as using tune, or melody that would closely imitate with another author’s music without proper attributions.
