BLACKPINK’s Jennie Faces Plagiarism Allegations Over New Song Resembling Alia Bhatt's Rani Theme

Fans claim Jennie’s upcoming track 'Like Jennie' mirrors the intro theme from Alia Bhatt's character in the Bollywood film 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani'.

Jennie of BLACKPINK has been accused by fans of copying the theme song for Alia Bhatt's character Rani in the 2023 Bollywood film 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani'.
The teaser for Jennie’s new song 'Like Jennie' features repetitive vocals and beats that some listeners say closely resemble Rani’s intro theme composed by Pritam.
Social media is abuzz with side-by-side comparisons of the two tracks, with some fans supporting the plagiarism claims while others argue the similarities are coincidental or common in music.
Pritam, the composer of Rani's theme, has yet to comment on the controversy, while Jennie is preparing for the release of her solo album on March 7.
The debate has also reignited discussions about past allegations of plagiarism in Bollywood and K-pop, with fans divided over whether Jennie or Pritam is at fault.
