What were the (Kisho)recreators thinking?

Yeh Jawani Hai Diwani – the title track of Jawani Diwani – was fabulous.

One of Kishore Kumar’s most popular solos to date, it was penned by Anand Bakshi and composed by the one and only R D Burman.

The track inspired Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, the Ranbir Kapoor-Deepika Padukone-starrer that released in 2013.

But since I’m no fan of the trend of tampering with classics, I’ve got to say that I wasn’t exactly keen to croon, “Gili Gili Akkha” on listening to its recreated version [i.e., The Jawaani Song, from Student of the Year 2 (2019).]
