There have been countless times when song remakes disappointed us real bad and we even felt like cursing the remakers. But not every song remake is that bad. Proving this we have brought you some song remakes that will make you forget all the bad remakes like Masakali 2.0
1. Khoya Khoya Chand
Mohammed Rafi sang the original song, which was released in 1960 in Kala Bazaar and starred Dev Anand and Waheeda Rehman. The only remake that managed to give it a new lease on life was in the underappreciated Shaitan. We’re sorry, but gentle music set against scenes of horrible horror have a special place in our hearts. The lyrics remain unchanged, yet this remix is expertly crafted.
2. The Humma Song
This is one of the most imaginative and captivating remakes. The soulful combination of A R Rahman’s timeless music and seductive vocals is a highly beautiful combination. This song’s direction eloquently conveys the connection between the performers. This is great music to dance to alone or with others.
3. Gud Naal Ishq Mitha
Back in the 1990s, Bally Sagoo and Malaika Arora in leather pants made this song the perfect shaadi song. It was once again the top song of the shaadi season, thanks to Rochak Kohli, Navraj Hans, and Harshdeep Kaur. Also, keep an eye out for Anil Kapoor’s never-ending vigour. It’s almost contagious. The music is fantastic, and people will always feel compelled to dance to it.
4. Hungama Ho Gaya
Asha Bhosle and Anhonee from 1973 are the creators of the original version of this song. In 2014’s Queen, Kangana Ranaut was spreading havoc in Paris while having the fun of her life after her would-be husband rejected her. This rendition transformed the original from a normal cabaret song to a liberation song.
5. Aapka Kya Hoga Janabe Ali
Mika and Sunidhi have created a very enjoyable show, and it has been presented in the same way. The lyrics are in sync with the music, and the choreography captures the mood of the song so well that it is as well-liked as the original.
6. Gulon Mein Rang Bhare
Another remake of a renowned lyrical song, Arijit’s voice gives complete justice to Faiz Ahmed sir’s words, which elegantly depict the core of a relationship. Everything in this song will make you realise how a hurt human feels, and it will give us all a sense of that pain. A song that makes your heart feel heavy but you still keep it in your heart, it’s a true gem.
7. Ae Zindagi Gale Laga Le
This song demonstrates how to build a remake without ruining the original. Arijit Singh has perfectly captured the beauty of this song while preserving the song’s original atmosphere. This is a truly captivating song, with SRK’s charisma and Arijit Singh’s vocals doing wonders. A remake that will be as well-received as the original.
8. Gazab Ka Hai Din
Jubin’s lyrical voice has resurrected a wonderful jewel. The lyrics take away your despair and leave you with a glimmer of joy in your eyes; in particular, “Dekho kareeb se mile hain naseeb se” is so emotional that it makes you feel an eternal tie with someone in your heart. A remake of such high quality that it will be remembered for decades.
9. Ghar Se Nikalte Hi
This music is nice and calming, and it has similar vibes to the original song. Arman has sung it beautifully, and the music and lyrics beautifully reflect the essence of adoration. This song makes this generation fall in love in the same way that the original song made previous generations fall in love.
10. Chan Kitthan
The lyrics, the artists, and the director are all excellent in this song. Those lyrics work like poetry on the heart of anyone in love, and the song has the same effect on us all like the original. The times that are discussed in it are the same moments that we think about when we are alone.
Remakes are commonplace. Someone may be so impressed by a piece of work that they feel compelled to recreate it from their perspective to demonstrate how it influenced them. And we believe that this adds to the original product because the reproduction demonstrates how many different ways it may be understood. Simply listen to the song “Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga.” Did you know it can be sung by a girl to another girl? We didn’t anticipate this, and it’s a pleasant surprise. We advise you to go for it if you can accomplish something like this or rework a song using modern instruments (not trends!) and new vocals. However, if you’re doing none of it and just banking on the success and nostalgia of the original, then don’t.
