Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan sent a notice to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and poet Kumar Vishwas for using a poem by his late father, Harivansh Rai Bachchan, in a tribute video and Kumar Vishwas offered him to pay Rs.32.

Big B took to Twitter and shared a post saying, "this is a copyright infringement .. ! legal will take care of this."

Amitabh's tweet came after the AAP leader posted a video on his social network account with the caption, "Mahakavi Harivansh Rai Bachchan defines 'Phoenix in melody 'Need Ka Nirman'. Listen and share #Tarpan4 @SrBachchan."

After senior Bachchan's reaction, Kumar Vishwas tweeted and disclosed the earnings he made through the video.


"Rcvd appreciation frm all poet's family but Notice frm you Sir.Deleting the Tribute video to Babuji.Sending earned Rs 32 as demanded.Pranam," he wrote on his Twitter handle.

The video, with Harivansh Rai Bachchan's poem 'Need ka Nirmaan Phir Phir', was a part of Kumar Vishwas's programme 'Tarpan', in which the AAP- leader-cum-poet paid tribute to noted Hindi poets.

The video has been removed from YouTube.
