Vishwavidhaata is a 1997 Hindi-language film directed by Farogh Siddique starring Jackie Shroff, Ayesha Jhulka, Sharad Kapoor, Pooja Batra, Arjun and Ashish Vidyarthi. The film is shot in India and Sharjah. It is a loose remake of the Tamil film Pudhiya Mugam, written by Suresh Chandra Menon.[1] The film features songs composed by A. R. Rahman, re-used from Pudhiya Mugam. Rahman was upset with the producers since the music was re-used in the film without his permission.[2]
