Here is my take on this. I have a feeling that when you listen to a song for a long time it kind of imbibes itself inside you. Then it starts reflecting in your work.
 
Take Dus Bahane...(rocking number no doubt) but listen carefully to the opening beats before the singer starts with 'here now;here now'.
Now play taal se taal mila, listen to the humming after the initial water drop sounds. Voila we found a match.
 
It would not be wise to say Vishal Shekhar copied these tunes. Its just that they are influenced by Rehman's songs so much that it starts showing up in their work.
Hell if I started composing music tomorrow, it would be the same case.
 
So most of the times if certain notes are similar to a song composed by someone else - it is merely a deja vu. The other song is influencing your song in an indirect way. I would consider such songs as a compliment to Rehman's song rather than take out my knife and rip apart the composers.
 
With all due respect composing music is the most precious talent which only few people are gifted with. So lets not drag down other composers just to prove our point.
 
 
On the flip side, we also have some composers who copy songs note by note. You cannot do much about them. Just stop buying their music.
 
Here is some food for thought
The tram sequence bgm from yuva which goes as "anjaana anjaani" sounds like the spiderman theme song. You know the one that used to play in the cartoons. Now I doubt if anyone will raise a finger against Rehman.
 
So just chill guys and enjoy the great music from the maestro.....
