Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan has issued a legal notice to Aam Admi Party (AAP) leader Dr Kumar Vishvas. The AAP leader has been accused of using a poem by Harivanshrai Bachchan without the required permissions.

It all started when Bachchan's fan page shared a video of Dr Vishvas singing the late poet’s famous poem, ‘Need Ka Nirman Phir Phir’, on Twitter. Although his recitation received positive comments from the Twitterati, it didn’t go down well with the actor who felt this is a case of copyright violation.

Although Dr Vishvas agreed to delete the video, it has still not been taken down. The entire affair has generated mixed responses from Twitter users.
