Vidya Balan set to recreate Sridevi’s ‘Hawa Hawai’

Actress Vidya Balan is set to dance to Sridevi’s chartbuster ‘Hawa Hawai’ from the 1987 blockbuster ‘Mr. India’ in ‘Tumhari Sulu’.

For ‘Tumhari Sulu’, the iconic number is being recreated by Tanishk Bagchi, known for giving contemporary touch to 1990s hit songs like ‘Humma humma’ and ‘Tamma tamma’.

The makers felt that instead of getting the track re-sung by a new voice, it would be wise to retain Kavita Krishnamurthy’s voice, as the track was synonymous with her unique vocals.

Rajeev Surti will choreograph the track in June.

The film’s director Suresh Triveni said in a statement: “I am elated to have such a cult number in the film. It plays a key role in the film and is not just a remix for the end credits.”

“Our intention is to pay a true tribute to the original and revive it in its full glory. I am looking forward to the flower power team of Vidya and Neha (Dhupia) to break a leg.”

‘Tumhari Sulu’, a slice-of-life family film. It releases in theatres worldwide on December 1.

  • Sridevi was called Lady Amitabh Bachchan. Watch the original song and see the fun, attitude and glam she brings to the. Lot of good and graceful dancers like Madhuri, Katz etc., but no one can match the fun and masti of Sri. She teases every step.

  • They are ruining all actually
    1. How epic was Humma Humma with Manisha Koirala in Bombay and what Baadshah did to it in Ok Jaanu

    2. How laila was ruined with a pornstar

    3. A cult song of Amitji was ruined (Saara jamana)
    4. They ruined Tamma tamma and Tu cheej Badi from Mohra-a career defining song of Raveena Tandon

    And now this

  • Why? This is utter NON-SENSE!

    Don’t have the creative freedom to create something new & fresh rather than always defaming classic old tracks?

    I am deeply pained to see no chartbusters from today’s films, songs have no shelf life, during 90s, we used to have at least one hit song from even a flop film.

    I guess these kinds of so-called rework is slowly downgrading the quality of B-town music/movies.

    They need to learn something desperately from South & movies such as Baahubali 1 & 2.

  • Yesterday i saw mermaid (3200 cr)
    highest grosser of china, this proved that Chinese audience are brainless.. this was the most FAALTU AND. BAKWAAS MOVIE. these brainless audience like this kind of shitty and tutti movies..
    They are brainless enough to judge a good or bad movie ..
    Even CRAP kung fu yoga grossed huge money..
    Xxx xander cage which was a superflop in all country but collected 165usd in china alone ..many Hollywood crap flopped in usa but collected huge money in china

    So Gross Collection of dangal in china is not a big deal ,,,many crap movies are collecting in china..china is known for this.

    {tingu khan is still behind of chhedi singh’s “sonu sood” KUNG FU YOGA
    highest grosser in china by an indian
    1.sonu sood and disha patani’s kung fu YOGA
    2.deepika padukone’s XXX
    3.tingu khan’s dangal
    }

    Now baahubali2 collection in india is certainly a game changer and certainly a yardstick..
    No movie in india has ever done a business of 1000 nett in india….so called mr. Perfectionist highest is 387cr..even Hollywood biggie gets tinny amount here…
    Whereas in china Hollywood movie dominates..
    Film business in India is by far more tougher than other country..
    For making a new yardstick of film business in India the movie has to be extra extra extraordinary…. Like mughleazam , sholay,hahk had done before…
    And now baahubali2 has done something unbelievable this time..
    Take a bow ss rajamouli’s baahubali2 “prabhas the megastar”
