Ramesh Taurani and Kumar Taurani spoke to Komal Nahta about remixes and recreated versions of old songs. While many believe that recreations are a worrying trend and that music composers should focus only on original compositions, Kumar Taurani had a different take. He said, “More recreations should be made. Every film should have recreated songs. Certain classic songs have a long legacy, have been promoted extensively and enjoy strong recall value. When these songs are presented in a new avatar, they tend to work big time. This happened with the recreated versions of ‘Chunari Chunari’ ( Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai ; 2026) and ‘Chamma Chamma’ ( Fraud Saiyaan ; 2019). Recently, ‘Aankhon Se Tune 2.0’ ( Bhai Tera Star Hai ; 2026) also worked. Usually, songs would get around 20,000 streams. But after being recreated, their streams suddenly jumped into the millions! This benefits the original versions as well.” Ramesh Taurani added, “There was a film called Crew (2024). Two of its s...

Kumar Taurani BREAKS silence on Vashu Bhagnani legal battle; reveals fallout after decades-old friendship: “Abhi thodi doori hai”; questions, “He filed case in a court located 200-300 kms from Patna. Wahaan jaane ki kya zaroorat hai aapko?”

In May 2026, producer Vashu Bhagnani filed a case in Katihar, Bihar, over the alleged unauthorized use of songs from his films. The issue erupted with the recreated versions of ‘Chunari Chunari’ and ‘Ishq Sona Hai’ . Vashu Bhagnani argued that these tracks are from his film Biwi No 1 (1999) and that the makers of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai (2026) didn’t have the right to use them. Meanwhile, Tips, which produced the Varun Dhawan-starrer, made it clear that they have all the rights to use the songs. Ramesh Taurani and Kumar Taurani didn’t talk much on this issue. But now they finally broke their silence during their interview with Komal Nahta. The brothers were asked about the feud between producers and music companies over remixes and recreations. Kumar Taurani reasoned that the producers’ argument that they should get some royalty from recreated versions doesn’t hold water. He said, “ Aapne paise leke mujhe maal de diya. Toh ab kiska maal hua ? Suppose I buy an M F Husain pain...

Nishant Singh had limited screen time in Panorama Studios’ Drishyam 2 and Drishyam The Conclusion , but he made a mark with his performance and well-etched character. He plays Shiv, while Neha Joshi essays the role of his wife, Jenny. The two pretend to be friendly neighbours of Vijay Salgaonkar (Ajay Devgn). Unknown to Vijay and his family, they are actually undercover cops tasked with finding that one clue which could prove that the Salgaonkars killed Meera Deshmukh’s (Tabu) son, Sam. The two characters appear in Drishyam The Conclusion as well, and their recordings play an important role in the proceedings. Moreover, when advocate Indrajit Shetty (Prakash Raj) refers to them as ‘Changu Mangu’, audiences erupt with laughter, making their characters even more memorable. Interestingly, Nishant Singh also appeared in Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019) as SF Commando Rahil Hussain and was part of Major Vihaan Singh Shergill’s (Vicky Kaushal) unit. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood ...
