There's no place on Earth where it hasn't been played — and now, someone's even copied it. I'm considering filing a copyright infringement case. But at the same time, seeing an Indian music director's work replicated internationally is also a proud moment. It makes me happy and reminds me of what I'm capable of. In life, whether people doubt you or copy your work, how you respond defines your growth. Taking it all in stride is a sign of maturity — and that's the real path to success,' he said.

In November 2024, Turkish pop singer Atiye released Anlayana — a track that soon found itself in direct comparison with Oo Antava. From the tone and tempo to the groove of the chorus, many listeners noted striking similarities between the two songs. While some suggested that Anlayana may have been inspired by the Telugu hit, others went further, accusing Atiye of lifting the tune without credit.

At the Tamil trailer launch of Thandel earlier this year, he ha shared, 'When I went to Turkey for vacation, I heard a song playing at a club that instantly felt familiar — the tune made me think I'd heard it before, and it sounded a lot like an Indian song. My wife felt the same. For a moment, I even thought maybe a Turkish song had been copied in India. But then I realised it was actually the remix version of Oo Antava. Hearing that track in a club in Turkey truly shows how far DSP's music has reached. His talent is echoing across countries. I've known him since my school days, he's always been hardworking, and it's inspiring to see that he still remains the same.' Karthi Have the tables turned? As DSP considers legal options, Atiye and her team have yet to issue a statement regarding the matter. The question of whether the similarities between the two tracks are a result of coincidence or intentional replication remains unresolved. However, the controversy signals a shift. Historically, Indian songs have often faced plagiarism accusations from international artistes. This time, though, the situation seems to have reversed, with Oo Antava now at the centre of an international plagiarism debate. It's clear that South Indian music is pushing beyond its linguistic and geographic limits.

Devi Sri Prasad Accuses Turkish Singer Of Copying Oo Antava, Says He Might Take Legal Action
Devi Sri Prasad has slammed Turkish singer Atiye for allegedly copying Oo Antava from Pushpa in her song Anlayana. He says legal action is under consideration. Years after Oo Antava became a cultural phenomenon with the release of Pushpa: The Rise, the song has now stirred up an unexpected international controversy. Composer Devi Sri Prasad, popularly known as DSP, has accused Turkish pop singer Atiye of copying the chart-topping track in her single Anlayana, released seven months ago. The Allu Arjun–Samantha Ruth Prabhu starrer continues to make waves—but this time, for alleged plagiarism. Speaking at a recent event, DSP expressed both disappointment and reluctant pride. 'Many people enjoyed Oo Antava in various ways, but now I've come to know that it has been copied into Turkish. There are many similarities in singer Atiye's version. One has to call it a plain copy," he stated in Telugu. He went on to say, 'I'm thinking about filing a case against them. But I'm also proud—this just shows the international appeal of our music." Turkish singers have a history of rehashing songs from India. This one, released in 2024, rehashed Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava from Pushpa (2021) by our own @ThisIsDSP. By the way, this is not sampling. Turkish song details: Singer: Atiye Song: Anlayana. — Sylvian (@Sylvianism) June 29, 2025 The song, known for its seductive beats and Samantha's sizzling screen presence, had taken social media by storm upon release in 2021. Interestingly, even Samantha herself was initially hesitant about the bold number. Reflecting on the experience in an earlier interview with Galatta Plus, she revealed that the role pushed her far outside her comfort zone. 'Who thinks of me for a special song, and that too, one in which I had to look really hot? I was always playing the cute, bubbly, girl-next-door." She added that it wasn't just about dance steps. 'It was about the attitude—the fierce, confident woman who's always comfortable in her sexuality—all of which I am not," she admitted candidly. Recalling her first day on set, she said, 'I was shaking in front of 500 junior artists before the first shot. I was so nervous." With Oo Antava continuing to leave an impact years later—both creatively and legally—it seems the song's journey is far from over. Whether DSP proceeds with legal action remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the reach of Telugu music now extends well beyond borders. First Published:
