MUMBAI: Some are missing Sukhwinder Singh and Sunidhi Chauhan’s strong vocals, while others feel the original is too fresh to be touched. Reactions received to the recreated version of O Saki Saki in the upcoming Batla House have been mixed so far. The original song was sung by Sukhwinder and Sunidhi for the 2004 film, Musafir.
One of the singers of the new version, Tulsi Kumar, says that every person is entitled to his or her viewpoint, and she looked at the bright side.
Tulsi stated, “O Saki Saki is getting an amazing response. The entire packaging of the song (is good). I think Tanishk Bagchi has recreated it beautifully.”

Koena Mitra, the actress who featured in the original song, criticizes this remake and states- “My song from Musafir –Saaki – has been recreated. The combination of Sunidhi, Sukhwinder, Vishal and Shekhar are outstanding. Didn’t like the new version, it’s a mess!”
So far, the response of the audience has been pretty amazing. The Bollywood industry is currently into several remixes and remakes, most of which, end up being disliked by the public (often due to immense love for the original). Even then, O Saki Saki has managed to be among the top trending songs.
