Badshah Recreated ‘Humma Humma’ For ‘Ok Jaanu’ And Twitter Lost Its Shit. LEGIT!

Sequels and remakes are the order of the day in Bollywood now! Either the B-town makers/producers are too fond of the old or we’re just running out of ideas (wake up call, maybe? ). While the odds of getting it right is one in a million, the end result is often disappointing. And don’t even get me started on the list!

But wait, Badshah (yes, he, who won’t play your song until you’ve repeated it bazillion times) has a career to make!

Badshah, recently recreated ‘Humma Humma’, a 90’s classic by A. R. Rahman for the upcoming movie ‘Ok Jaanu‘ starring Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapoor.

But, the output has made Twitterati very angry. Netizens have taken to their social media accounts and tweeted their minds (and my heart) out! Let’s unleash the wrath, shall we?

How to deal with the torture that the remixed #HummaHumma is?

Dear Bollywood, Thank you for ruining one more cult song from 90's. That rap in #HummaHumma sounds like crap.

On the one hand, it's just a song, on the other YOU DON"T MESS WITH HUMMA HUMMA.
