For Do Patti, Reshma's popular folk track Akhiyan Nu Rehan De has been reimagined as Akhiyaan De Kol, a pacey dance number featuring Sanon in a red leather bodysuit.
Siddiqui, known for Pakistani dramas Ghughi and Maat as well as Bollywood film Mom, shared a screengrab of the music video of Akhiyaan De Kol on X.
"Imitation can be flattering, but not when it means tearing apart a classic by a legend. Please show some respect for Reshma jee and the legacy she left behind. Her music deserves to be treated with the dignity it commands, not reduced to just another sordid ripoff," the actor wrote on the microblogging site on Monday.
According to the YouTube link of Akhiyaan De Kol, Tanishk Bagchi has composed the song which has lyrics by Kausar Munir. It is sung by Shilpa Rao with rap performed and written by Mellow D.
The page has also credited original song makers, including Reshma as the singer, Khan Muhammad as the composer, Sehrai Gurdas Puri as the lyricist, as well as 1979 EMI (Pakistan) Ltd for song copyrights.
Do Patti, directed by Shashanka Chaturvedi and written by Kanika Dhillon, will start streaming on Netflix from October 25.
