Pasoori Song India VS Pakistan
Ali Sethi VS Arijit Singh Public Reaction
Download Latest Version Here
Indians are
reacting sharply to Bollywood's remake of Pasoori Remake, a Pakistani pop song
which became a smash hit in both nations last year.
Originally
sung by Ali Sethi and Shae Gill, the quirky number featured in Coke Studios
Pakistan - the country's longest-running music show.
An Indian
version of the song released to mixed reviews on Monday.
Many
listeners said they found the rendition unnecessary, but others said they loved
the feel of the new version.
Titled
Pasoori Nu, the remake features in the upcoming Bollywood film, Satyaprem Ki
Katha, and stars actors Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani.
The song's
official music video has been viewed more than nine million times on YouTube
since its release on Monday.
There had
been a lot of excitement around its release - given how the new version is sung
by Arijit Singh, one of India's biggest playback singers in recent years, and
is penned by Sethi himself along with Indian writer Gurpreet Saini.
The song
retains the original chorus along with its catchy pop hook but overall has a
more romantic feel to it. Agg lavaan teriya majbooriya nu (Set fire to your
compulsions), Singh croons in perfect imitation of Sethi's voice, as the actors
dance and embrace each other against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains.

But on Monday,
many Indians criticised the music video and accused its makers of "totally
ruining" the original song for them.
"Nice
try, don't try again," one user wrote.
"No
doubt Arijit Singh is an amazing singer. But you need to stop messing with good
songs," another added.
Others said
they were tired of Bollywood's habit of rehashing old films and songs into new
content. "Can't you people let things stay original?" original
a user asked.
However,
several others defended the song and accused its critics of being unnecessarily
harsh.
"Loved
this version of Pasoori Remake," a fan wrote, while another added: "Arijit
sir's version of Pasoori Remake, the best gift for every music fan."
Pasoori Remake, a
Punjabi word which roughly translates to "a complicated mess",
released last year in the 14th season of Coke Studio Pakistan. Produced by the
soda company, the show features studio-recorded performances by some of the
country's most famous artists and is hugely popular in India.
The song was
a massive hit in India, where it garnered millions of views, topped music
charts for weeks and inspired a flurry of remakes.
