Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's music had a big impact on [[Bollywood music]], inspiring numerous Indian musicians working in [[Bollywood]] since the late 1980s. For example, he inspired [[A. R. Rahman]] and [[Javed Akhtar]], both of whom he collaborated with. However, there were many hit [[filmi]] songs from other Indian [[music director]]s that plagiarised Khan's music.<ref name="Hindu">{{cite news|url=http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1418/14181230.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20011230173145/http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1418/14181230.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=30 December 2001|title=The stilled voice |author=Amit Baruah, R.

Despite the significant number of hit Bollywood songs plagiarised from his music, he was reportedly tolerant towards the plagiarism.<ref name="Chaudhuri"/><ref name="rediff">{{cite news |title=A rare encounter with Ustad Nusrat Ali Khan |url=http://www.rediff.com/movies/apr/05nusrat.htm |access-date=23 December 2018 |work=[[Rediff]] |date=1997}}</ref> In one interview, he jokingly gave "Best Copy" awards to Viju Shah and [[Anu Malik]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Bollywood songs copied from Pakistan will break your heart |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/viral-news/shocking-twitter-thread-showing-bollywood-songs-copied-from-pakistan-will-break-you-heart/articleshow/62564935.cms |work=The Times of India |date=19 January 2018}}</ref> In his defense, Malik claimed that he loved Khan's music and was actually showing admiration by using his tunes.<ref name="rediff"/> However, Khan was reportedly aggrieved when Malik turned his spiritual "Allah Hoo, Allah Hoo" into "I Love You, I Love You" in ''[[Auzaar]]''.<ref name="Chaudhuri"/> Khan said "he has taken my devotional song ''Allahu'' and converted it into ''I love you''. He should at least respect my religious songs."<ref name="rediff"/>

His music also appears on soundtracks for [[Hollywood films]] such as ''[[The Last Temptation of Christ (film)|The Last Temptation of Christ]]'' (1988), ''[[Natural Born Killers]]'' (1994), and ''[[Dead Man Walking (film)|Dead Man Walking]]'' (1995).<ref name="Chaudhuri"/>
