Saaho’s ‘Baby Won’t You Tell Me’ Poster Accused Of ‘Art Theft’, Netizens Furious

Prabhas-Shraddha Kapoor starrer Saaho hit the big screen on Friday and action-mongers eagerly await the movie to set new par in action movie genre. However, just a day before its release, the movie has come under fire for copying artwork by Shilo Shiv Suleman for their ‘Baby Won’t You Tell Me’ poster. The uncanny similarity between the song poster and Shilo’s artwork which she also posted it on her Instagram handle was noted by the infamous critic, Diet Sabya.

While the inspiration of the song where Shraddha tailing behind Prabha in their romantic number ‘Baby Won’t You Tell Me’, remains unclear or even if it 'copied' so to say, one must comply to the fact that the similarities are very much plausible. Calling out the creators of Saaho, a user commented on the poster, ''If you are done with bringing huge surprises for your fans please ask for permissions before using an artist's artwork or at least do the simple respect of giving credits’’.

After pointing out the ‘similarities’ by the critic a lot of netizens have also questioned as to why credit was not given to Shilo Shiv Suleman calling it ‘350 crores of copying’. 

‘It was just an inspiration LoL , it’s good that they are using the art but man , at least give credit to the artist who has put their blood and sweat into it. Yuck’ another commented.

Talking about the Instagram critic page, Diet Sabya who have unabashedly called out many celebrities for copying, the creators, who choose to remain unknown reportedly told HT over e-mail, “Copying isn’t cool and we will make sure the online universe knows that... About time serial offenders, influential or upcoming — be called out for their mediocrity’’.

The Sujeeth-directorial starring hits the big screen on 30 August.
