Prabhas fans notice Hollywood film The Lost Bus has similar background score to Salaar
The trailer of Matthew McConaughey and America Ferrera’s The Lost Bus was released on YouTube a few days ago. It has now come to the attention of several Indian viewers that the background music used in one section of the trailer is eerily similar to the one that was in Prabhas-starrer Salaar. Many fans commented the same and bombarded social media with comments.
Many fans pointed out that a section of the background score, starting from 1:10 mark in the trailer for the Hollywood film The Lost Bus, had a striking resemblance to the composition from Salaar’s original soundtrack, composed by Ravi Basrur.
How internet reacted
One fan commented, “Listen to the background music from 1:13, it’s the same Salaar BGM.” Another said, “Did anyone else hear Salaar bgm in this or just me??” Someone said, “The BGM at 1:22 Secs was #Salaar ‘s which was composed by #RaviBasrur. He also said in an interview he got 2-3 calls from Hollywood to compose music…”
A comment read, “You’ve seen Indian music directors copying Hollywood background music (BGM). But for the first time, Hollywood music directors have stolen the BGM from the Indian movie Salaar. That’s Rebelwood for you!” “Salaar OST is just goated man,” read a comment.
