Yes, another remake on the cards. Bad news or good news, you decide! Saif Ali Khan's Jawaani Jaaneman has the remake of the cult classic song, "Ole Ole" in it and we seriously have mixed feelings about the same. While the only relief is that it stars the original star, Saif, did we really need another version of it? Well, if Yeh Dillagi makers have no problem, who are the fans to even convey their dismay? Saif Ali Khan To Recreate 'Ole Ole' in a New Rehashed Version of the Song for Jawaani Jaaneman.
Music composer (?) Tanishk Bagchi told mid-day, "Since Ole ole is an all-time classic, the producers [Jackky Bhagnani and Jay Shewakramani] decided on recreating this fun song. Lyricist Shabbir [Ahmed] and I have worked on quite a few songs. While writing the lyrics for this track, he tried to retain the fun element. The idea was to the better the original song and enhance its feel."
On the other hand, director Nitin Kakkar thinks that he wanted to 'enhance' the original song. He said, "Considering it became a cult song, there is a lot of pressure riding on us as we want the track to resonate with the audience the way the original version did."
Well, the original song was sung by Abhijeet Bhattacharya, and composed by Dilip Sen-Sameer Sen, written by Sameer. Well, we don't know it turns out good or not but we sure need some new talent in the industry who can give us new songs to cherish for the generations to come. The movie will hit the theatres earlier on January 31, 2020.
