Even though producer Mukesh Bhatt was not gung-ho about the idea, director Mohit Suri introduced the concept of music videos to Bollywood with the chartbusting Woh Lamhein Woh Raatein remix from his film, Zeher.
He continued the successful trend with the remix of Kya Mujhe Pyaar Hai from Woh Lamhe. For his latest film, Awarapan, releasing worldwide on June 29, he has shot two music videos, both of which are set to take the nation by storm.
The first (already on air) is DJ Suketu’s remix of To Phir Aao, shot in Hong Kong, and featuring Pakistani singer Mustafa Zahid along with Emraan Hashmi. Suketu has even remixed Zahid’s other rendition, Tera Mera Rishta, whose video will follow on the airwaves in the weeks to come.
However, the track that is fast becoming the secret favourite of youngsters is Suzanne’s foot-tapping Mahiya, originally composed by the British-Pakistani singer, Annie.
In this war between the Pakistani singers, let’s see whose track in Awarapan emerges victorious at the end of it all!
