Dua Lipa surprised the audiences at her Mumbai concert when she pulled off a stunner with a mash-up of her song ‘Levitating’ and ‘Wo Ladki Jo Sabse Alag Hai’ from the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer ‘Baadshah’.
The mash-up is a viral hit, and was created by DJ Ruchir. Ruchir, a fan of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan considers 'Woh Ladki Jo' one of his favourite songs. "As a 90s kid and an SRK fan, this legendary song is my all time favourite and with Dua Lipa's Levitating taking over the charge, I knew I had to fuse them together," he said in an introductory video he created for himself on Instagram in July this year.
Ruchir had uploaded a reel on Instagram using the audio in 2021. In December 2022, he uploaded an extended version of the mashup on his YouTube channel which currently has 20 million views.
After Dua Lipa's surprise act, Ruchir took to his Instagram stories and wrote, "@dualipa performing on my mashup is the greatest achievement of my life".
In a recent interview with Bombay Times, Lipa admitted she had heard the mashup and was “blown away” by it. She called it "amazing”. When asked who her favourite Bollywood actor is, she said, “I love Shah Rukh Khan!” During her previous performance in the city in 2019, Lipa had met Shah Rukh Khan and the duo did the superstar's iconic pose.
