Rajkummar Rao
Rajkummar Rao recently made his music video debut with Achha sila diya, a recreation of the '90s heartbreak song. So, imagine our surprise when he says that he doesn't subscribe to the idea of remixes.
What made him give a nod to B Praak's reimagination then? "I used to listen to the original song, back in the day. Unless a recreation is done with [an honest] intent and the same sentiment, I am not a fan.
For me, the intent is important," says the actor, adding that the track will remind listeners of the Sonu Nigam hit. "The reason I said yes to it was that it had a new take to the song. So many things have been changed from the original, but the soul is similar."
