MUMBAI: Singer-songwriter Shibani Kashyap recreates Bollywood’s golden melody “Mere Mehboob”, a song about unrequited love.
A masterpiece composition by the great Laxmikant-Pyarelal, written by Anand Bakshi and sung by the legendary Kishore Kumar. “The original song always fascinated me”, said Shibani.
“I always wanted to remake it in my own style. I decomposed the music in a very RnB and trap genre and sang it a bit differently, my attempt was to give it a youthful global feel”. She played it to Saregama and they loved it.
