It’s nostalgia time as Coolie No. 1 is ready for a retread. Ahead of Varun Dhawan and Sara Ali Khan’s film premiere on Amazon Prime, the creators released the song, Tujhko Mirchi Lagi, on Monday.
The sights and sounds of Chowpatty Street from the original have been replaced by an ensemble of pop colors in the new song. While Varun is dressed in T-shirts and pants, Sara chose a tutu-style dress. The song from the ’90s was much more homey with Govinda’s tees with bold prints and Karisma’s saris.
With Varun and Sara, the song features original singers Kumar Sanu and Alka Yagnik. It has been reinvented by Lilo Geor-DJ Chetas, the original song was composed by Anand-Milind and the lyrics were written by Sameer.
Speaking about the remake, director David Dhawan said, “The songs from the original Coolie No. 1 are hugely popular and timeless. According to me, these clues also helped the movie. It was always clear to me that if I ever did this movie again, I would use these blockbuster songs. The songs in the original were created by music directors Anand Milind and written by lyricist Sameer, who is close to me. We have worked a lot together, including these songs in the new Coolie No.1 was my way of getting revenge. “
Coolie No 1 is a remake of David’s 1995 film of the same name. It will premiere on Christmas (December 25) on Amazon Prime Video. Produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Jackky Bhagnani, and Deepshikha Deshmukh, the film also stars Paresh Rawal, Jaaved Jaaferi, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, and Shikha Talsania, among others.
The song Hussn Hai Suhana, also a remix of a hit song from the original film, previously released.
