SRK-Juhi's classic song 'Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam' reimagined for Vicky Kaushal's 'Bad Newz', netizens say 'Surprised KJo allowed this'

Vicky Kaushal

The songs from the upcoming film 'Bad Newz' starring Vicky Kaushal, Ammy Virk and Triptii Dimri have been the talks of the town. After 'Tauba Tauba' and 'Jaanam', the makers have now dropped the remake of the classic 90s song 'Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam'. The original song is from the film 'Duplicate' and was picturised on Shah Rukh Khan, Juhi Chawla, and Sonali Bendre. The original song was sung by Udit Narayan and Alk Yagnik. 


The new version of 'Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam' is picturised on the lead characters of 'Bad Newz' and narrates the complications of their bond. The film narrates the story of Triptii becoming pregnant with Vicky and Ammy Virk's kids at the same time. It is a rare condition. The film takes a funny route while addressing this rare condition. 


The reimagined version retains the vocals by the original singers and is recreated by Lijo George and DJ Chetas. "Javed Akhtar's lyrics, set to Anu Malik's original composition, this new version brings a modern twist to a timeless favorite that will capture your heart," reads the brief of the reimagined version. The song refers to Vicky Kaushal's character as Mehboob while Ammy Virk is the Sanam to Triptii's character.
