Filmmaker Rajiv Rai has expressed concern over the unauthorized use of his iconic song “Saat Samundar” from Vishwatma (1992) in the teaser of the upcoming romantic comedy Tu Meri Main Tera, starring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday.
The 32-second teaser, released in December 2024, featured the opening beats of the classic track, prompting Rai to take action. Speaking to Mid-Day, he revealed that he was surprised to hear the familiar musical cues and immediately instructed his legal team to contact Dharma Productions and Saregama, the music label that holds distribution rights to his works. According to Rai, no prior approval was sought for using the track in the film’s promotional material.
“Saat Samundar’s beats are not in the latest teaser. I am unsure if they are part of the final film
