Chahat Fateh Ali Khan’s latest hit track, ‘Bado Badi,’ has been removed from YouTube due to a copyright dispute. The song, which had quickly gained popularity across South Asia, is allegedly a rendition of a classic piece originally performed by the legendary Pakistani artist Noor Jehan in the 1973 film “Banarasi Thug.”
Despite amassing millions of views within a month of its April 2024 release, Khan’s version faced removal following claims of copyright infringement.

‘Bado Badi’ achieved widespread acclaim, capturing the attention of audiences in countries like India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. The track’s success highlighted Khan’s growing influence in the South Asian music scene.
Chahat Fateh Ali Khan first rose to prominence during the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020, sharing his music videos on various online platforms. His repertoire includes popular songs such as “Pyara PSL,” “Lota Lota,” “Gol Kattara,” and “Tu Chor Chor Chor,” which are known for their repetitive beats and altered lyrics from existing tracks. This unique approach has often sparked divided opinions among listeners.
Khan’s distinctive style has led to numerous online memes, and he was even invited to the International Pakistan Prestige Awards (IPPA) in 2023. However, his unconventional music has elicited mixed reactions from the public. Some view it as entertaining, while others criticize it for its perceived lack of musical depth.
This ongoing debate about Khan’s work reflects broader discussions on entertainment, audience engagement, and the definition of artistic expression.
