Copyright issues[]
Since Jal's album, Aadat, and Aslam's album, Jal Pari, shared certain tracks such as "Aadat", "Bheegi Yaadein" and "Ankhon Se", a war over rights began which resulted in both sides claiming to possess hard proof to support their respective claims that they alone owned these songs.[citation needed]
