About Pasoori, Rid, that's t-series, they can make the worst remake of any iconic song with no regret.๐Ÿคก Even though I love the og songs of T-series, they don't do justice with the remakes, and why a remake when nobody even asked for it lol)
Coke Studio India and Pakistan have been releasing bops in many languages for decades, and most of them have ended up being translated into a Bollywood Hindi remake song. And it's not like they are making these songs known by remaking them when they literally ARE popular.
I am a Rajasthani, and I cringed real hard when I first heard the Hindi remake of Chaudhary song (an old Coke studio song in Marwari, which was also featured in Balika Vadhu if yk). Even though I speak Hindi, that song was literally a part of my Childhood! and hearing that song being translated into Hindi was painful, the og vibes didn't match at all!
I understand that Bollywood produces many movies in a single year that contain way too many songs, so they can't help but make few remakes, but still, why? Even the the general public doesn't like these remakes, they still make them! I literally have a love-hate relationship with T-Series in this whole music production matter. :')
Sorry for my long ramble, I never really shared my thoughts on this topic with anyone before, and I genuinely apologize if I bored you and you had to read all of this. :')
ahhh, don't apologise for the ramble, i understand what you're saying. you're right, bollywood does produce a shit ton of movies a year, so they're bound to hit a wall once in a while when it comes to new music. choosing old songs and remaking them seems like an easy option and i don't blame them. but yeah, i think sometimes it doesn't quite work. i don't necessarily think the pasoori remake is bad, i just think it wasn't needed bc the original is already so amazing.. and i think if it's hard to come up with music, it's also sometimes okay to not include any at all โ€” i know a lot of movies that had 0-2 songs in them, but they were still such a success (looking at you, pathaan), but yeah. i understand that music is an integral part of bollywood, i just hope that even if they continue making remakes, they do so carefully or let the same artists sing those. some just weren't my thing :(
