The song ‘Shoorveer’ was featured in the film. Following this, Rajasthani singer Rapperiya Baalam released a video on social media claiming that the song belongs to him and was used without permission. According to the rapper, the song was used in the film during scenes involving violence and gunfire, which tarnished the image of his state, whereas he had originally created the song as a tribute to Maharana Pratap.<\/p>\n In the video, he said, “Some of you might ask why my heart is broken. You might say that I should be happy because my song is in Mirzapur. But the Mirzapur team did not take my permission to use my song. Who gave them permission? I certainly didn’t.”<\/p>\n Rapper questions use of \u2018Shoorveer\u2019 in the film<\/p>\n Rapperiya Baalam said the song \u2018Shoorveer\u2019 is dedicated to Maharana Pratap and questioned its use in a film where it could be seen as glorifying the villain. He said the team should have approached him if they wanted to use the song and added that he would have offered several ideas.<\/p>\n He also raised questions about the song\u2019s copyright and licensing, asking who had granted the rights and whether the proper copyright permissions were in place.<\/p>\n \u2018Mirzapur: The Movie\u2019 becomes Excel Entertainment\u2019s biggest opener<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2018Mirzapur: The Movie\u2019 is among Excel Entertainment\u2019s first major theatrical films based on a successful streaming franchise.
