Well, the opening ceremony of PSL 4 was a whole new story. People were disappointed with the ceremony at so many levels and couldn’t understand many things and performances that were going on. Among all the performances outlined for starting the league, one was by Aima Baig and Shuja Haider. The duo performed Disco Deewane which is sung originally by Nazia Hassan and Zohaib Hassan.
People were not happy with it and yes, Twitter was on roll asking why was it even remixed. Now, Zoheb Hassan has om out and called out PSL 4’s management for using the song without even asking for permission from the singer which is against copyright laws. He expressed his disappointment on Twitter:

“I was shocked to see that a reputable platform like PSL used our track Disco Dewane without our prior permission. Outright infringement of intellectual property should be condemned and I am going to take a legal stand on this one !@OfficialPSL @pid_gov— Zoheb Hassan (@zoheb_hassan) February 15, 2019
Well, the rights over intellectual property should always be respected, no matter where you are using a piece!
