We recently received emails from our fans all over India. From what we know, DJ Shezwood made a remix of BC Sutta. The remix is being aired on Channel V at the moment. Meghna Nandu is playing the role of a seductress in the video, who mesmerizes a group of people to set their belongings aside, which, obviously, includes the sutta.
Ms. Meghna says, “It has the same tune of the original song but instead of encouraging people to smoke, my song tells them to kick the butt.” Wait…Isn’t this piracy? She’s copying the tune of the original song without even letting the owners know. It is not like Zeest isn’t working anymore, or Zeest has officially given up music. We could understand her point only if we were down. Just because we didn’t release any other songs does not mean anyone can go around copying our song. Novacaine says in her blog entry, “The tune of the ‘Sutta Mix’ is going to be the same as the original track. How convenient! Never was a better excuse given to blatantly copy a song.”
Producer Gautham Sarumini, Director Lovel, Vocalist Saru Maini, DJ Shezwood & Ms. Meghna owe Zeest big time. They have absolutely no right to earn like that. There is something in this world known as “copyright laws”. They did not give credit to Zeest for using the melody of their song.

As far as doing something about it is concerned, that will be taken care of shortly..
Peace

copyright laws in india? as good as non existants. people rip off songs from oldies and no one can actually do a thing about it.
even asha bhonsley criticized it but later on started singing remixed versions of her own old song.
the song is out. you can only request the music channels to boycott such songs. but they are not going to listen is my guess.
February 15, 2007 at 3:26 pm |
this ‘dj’ whoever he is has tried to make a name on the name of skip to make himself a hit but he has forgotten he cnt suceed puttin others down
rocksssssss
infact i think skip u dnt hav to worry at all they r publicising ur song instead of their own
coz they dnt hav
gud music
nor lyrics
nor d video
ppl infact will ask which is d original n more will become aware of ur song n certainly enjoy the most
n watever that bitch is sayin that original sutta is ‘encouraging ppl to smoke n all’
dont v hav brains what we shud b doin n what not
first i guess she shud be learning ethics!!!!
isnt she wrong in exposing her ‘not so gud lookin body’ n corrupting children
first she shud learn n then go preech ppl wat to do n wat not to
as always sutta (original)
n will always!!!!!!
long live sutta………..
February 15, 2007 at 5:26 pm |
Hey Preeti…You’re right..But you see, they’re not giving any credit to Zeest or Skip. A little note of “thanks for using the tune of your song” wouldn’t have hurt anyone…
Peace
February 16, 2007 at 5:48 am |
those fools tried to copy the real legend but have totally failed.
That bitch is trying to justify her failure,
we should not worry this shit will soon be off from the channel V.
What SKiP can do is he should now get the song’s music copyright against his name……..
rest all BC-Sutta

February 22, 2007 at 8:55 am |
this song “dont smoke sutta’ is a total shit.. The yjst want to encash the popularity of sutta song bu zeest in india.. But baap tho baap hi rehta hai yaar..
They dnt knw tht ‘Sutta’ is not only a song.. its a life cycle of everyother person..
So keep ‘ORIGINAL SUTTA’ rocking
February 22, 2007 at 9:47 am |
This is what they wanted! Publicity for some reason or the other! And of course! What better way than copying a song obviously famous among the youth?
Though we are up against the song, the controversy generated has definitely spread a buzz thus making people switching channels continuously to view the video.
Clearly, it shows lack of original talent.
As far as piracy and copyright are concerned, B.C Sutta is like a home video, without a sponsor or a music house backing it(correct me if im wrong!). Thus too sadly the sweet bastards cannot be sued.
But at the end of the day, all those who’ve heard Sutta will continue listening to the song, boycotting the remix. Soooooo, who gives a damn!
Sing along!
“Doston mein baitha, mein sutta pe rahaa…”
February 22, 2007 at 9:49 am |
Oh and by the way! SkiP! My mate! Don’t lose heart!
As they say,”Imitation is the best form of flattery”

*Edited by Admin – Lets not use abusive language*
No matter how much i liked the BC sutta, it sure has a very negative connotation. Irrespective, DJs always have remixed oiginal songs and this one send s avery positive note as well. So *Edited by Admin* you guys who have been cribbing and get around to make another song.

March 1, 2007 at 3:08 pm |
enough has been said about the piracy incident, i am not a big zeest fan simply because i havent heard any other songs, except for of course the sutta song.
wanted to know how many songs you guys have done?
do u still do music ?
and if you have more songs then what would be the best way to get em?
regards
March 1, 2007 at 3:47 pm |

btw copies remain copies .. n who ever watches it kno s its a copy of SUTTA.. n everyone say’s “wot a bitch .. fkin copycat… spoilt d whole song”.. she cudnt even do a nice job… its a big FLOP…
March 1, 2007 at 5:21 pm |
Raghav: Skip has a lot of songs but he hasn’t released them yet. Yes, he’s still doing music. We’ll let our members know whenever Skip releases more songs…
Peace
March 2, 2007 at 4:45 pm |
cheap remix that’s all i can say about that song,
they don’t understand it’s not only about sutta but there’s also a feeling of freedom associated with BC SUTTA about all the restrictions in our society.
March 7, 2007 at 6:48 am |
thatss a kul song……….but i need its wordin 4 this song???????where do i get it from?????????//
March 7, 2007 at 10:53 am |
Karishman: Wording??? Are you talking about the remix or the original??
March 8, 2007 at 3:18 pm |
man….this is just too much … i cant believe i am getting personal bout this song!! screw these ppl s asses!!
March 10, 2007 at 3:55 am |
terrible,terrible,TERRIBLE remake.
the remix needed pretty women to distract us from the awfulness of the song.
the original didn’t even need a video.
need i say more?

Correct me if I’m wrong.. but the tune for BC Sutta was also taken from a popular English song titled “Centerfold” by the J. Geils Band…..
October 14, 2008 at 12:49 pm |
Although the chorus of Centerfold bears a slight resemblence to BC Sutta, I doubt they lifted the tune from there.
As for the DJ copying the tune, sue his ass and rip it apart.
I know you guys don’t wanna have the “greedy bastards” image, but if you don’t protect what’s yours, you are allowing piracy to grow.
