MUMBAI: Singer Akanksha Bhandari, who debuted in Bollywood playback singing with the soulful song, Tere Liye, is back with its reprised version. The newbie singer had crooned the original song along side singing sensation Atif Aslam for the Bollywood movie, Namaste England.
Spilling beans on what motivated her to sing Tere Liye Reprise, Akanksha says, “I had not sung the whole song for the film. So, a lot of my friends and fans told me that ‘you should do your version of the song’ as it might suit my voice.”
“I have given it a little a Punjabi folk touch and added percussions to the reprised version of Tere Liye. This is how we made the song different from the original one,” explains the talented singer, while revealing how the song is different from the original number.
