Plagiarising case filed against IIFA for Sridevi tribute video

The popular IIFA Awards 2018, which aired on television yesterday, saw the industry giving a tribute to the late legendary actress Sridevi, whose tragic demise left the whole country shocked.

A video was played at the event, which was dedicated to the actress, highlighting her memorable stint in Bollywood. However, the video has now landed IIFA in trouble, as a lady, Saba Arif, has alleged that the video was plagiarised from a tribute video which she had made and uploaded on YouTube, that too in March 2018.

As per Saba, IIFA apparently used the video without taking any permission and only added a voice-over and a few more stills to it, to be presented as a revised version. The lady was also not given any credit for the same.

Saba took to Facebook to express her displeasure about the same. Check out her post here:

Below is the video prepared by Saba for her idol:

IIFA on the other hand, presented the video in the below format:

If this is true, then we believe Saba sure deserves some credit for her hard-work. What do you guys think?
