Singer Usha Uthup expressed joy over the recreation of her iconic song "Ramba Ho" in the film Dhurandhar but noted that the makers did not contact her for it.
The iconic song "Ramba Ho" from the 1981 film 'Armaan' has been recreated for the upcoming period spy thriller 'Dhurandhar' directed by Aditya Dhar, featuring Ranveer Singh. While Usha Uthup, the original singer, has expressed her happiness over the song's revival and its reach to new audiences, she also remarked that the makers of the film did not reach out to her regarding the recreation. This indicates a common situation in the industry where original artists may not be consulted on remakes of their work.
In an interview with Radio Nasha, Usha shared her positive reaction upon hearing the new version, appreciating the effort made by the new singer, Madhubanti Bagchi. She emphasized that she is not someone who feels negatively about others performing her songs, instead celebrating the fact that her work continues to resonate and be reimagined for modern audiences. Usha's comments reflect an open-minded attitude towards artistic reinterpretation, a mindset that is becoming increasingly important in today's entertainment landscape.
Overall, while the lack of contact from the filmmakers may be a point of concern for Usha, her emphasis remains on the joy of witnessing her music continue to thrive. This creates a dialogue on the respect and recognition for original artists in the age of music remakes and reinvention in the film industry.
