Recently, it was noted how famous brand Coldplay seemed to have a very similar video to local singer Abdullah Qureshi’s just a mere 6 months later.

The uncanny resemblance of how the video of song, ‘Daddy’ transpires are very similar to Abdullah’s ‘Laapata’ as shown below:

“I myself am a huge Coldplay fan,” said Abdullah. “I grew up listening to them. I feel like if it’s anyone’s fault, it’s the production house – named Aardman Animations – that made the video, unless it was Coldplay’s own idea.”

We have yet to hear from a spokesperson for Coldplay.
