Phir Dhan Te Nan: Shahid Kapoor’s Kaminey Song Gets a Twist in Arjun Kapoor’s Kuttey, Vishal Bhardwaj Stirs Up the Memories of Original Song

The makers of Kuttey on Thursday unveiled the new song Phir Dhan Te Nan from Aasmaan Bhardwaj's upcoming directorial. Composer of the track Vishal Bhardwaj, shares his thoughts of what went behind composing it. He said: "Phir Dhan Te Nan is an emotion which wells up inside you. It's catchy, yet stirs up the memories of the original song, Dhan Te Nan, which was a chartbuster that never lost its charm. It is played even today. Perhaps that's why, initially it was challenging for us to compose Phir Dhan Te Nan think about making changes to the original tune." Kuttey Song Awaara Dogs: Arjun Kapoor and Tabu Are Badass in This Trippy Track From the Thriller (Watch Video).

"We needed to integrate both, keeping the originality of the former with the freshness of the latter intact. Another challenge was that Dhan Te Nan is so perfect. That's why we had to have multiple sittings, discussions and jamming sessions before finalising the new version." Phir Dhan Te Nan is a recreation of the song Dhan Te Nan from the Shahid Kapoor-starrer Kaminey.

Vishal Bhardwaj says Dhan Te Nan was composed more than a dozen years ago. "So we had to keep in mind that the changes in the new version had to reflect the contemporary beats and music of today yet have its soul intact. A major decision was retaining the original singers and lyricist again - Sukhwinder and Vishal Dadlani, singing Phir Dhan Te Nan with the legendary Gulzar saab writing the lyrics." He added: "We will always be extremely thankful to Gulzar saab for helping us with this one too. Vishal's vibrant voice combined with Sukhwinder's crooning spells magic for our song. It's sensuous, rhythmic and pulsating.
