Bollywood thrashed for ‘ruining’ Junoon’s iconic ‘Sayonee’

Bollywood’s golden days are long gone. One of the world’s biggest film industries is now surviving on remakes and its latest remake has irked Pakistanis for ‘ruining’ a classic.

Lucky Nadiadwala’s upcoming musical thriller Sayonee includes a remake of Junoon’s 90’s classic Sayonee. The remake has been sung by the much-loved playback artist Arijit Singh. According to Indian media, the music of the song has been composed by Joy-Anjan, while Alaukik Rahi penned the lyrics.

The makers of the film dropped the teaser for the song on Tuesday.

“Get ready to revive the 90’s legendary song,” read the caption of the teaser.

The modern rendition has left Pakistanis fuming, who took to Twitter to express their rage.

There are some things that should not be attempted.

This is one of them. https://t.co/KgriJ5bMbV

Make your own music @TSeries – this is the anthem of our youth. You will not own this one. @sufisal did you sell this song to them? https://t.co/ygj8OPmQ1a

I didn’t want to be the one to say it, but this. It takes a special kind of hypocrisy to throw Pakistani artists out of India and then profit off of copying our classics. https://t.co/uVzbzoUZPu

You can’t get away with offending more than 200 million people on a personal level. This is not it.

Some users even appealed to Prime Minister Imran Khan to take action against India for this.

Dear @ImranKhanPTI, we can tolerate anything & everything but this is beyond forgiveness…. Send a nuke down their throat for this abomination. #Sayonee https://t.co/dHXnbeQzup

This rendition of Sayonee has to count as some generation of warfare really we destroy their planes they destroy our songs

A Twitter user also pointed out that this is not the first time Bollywood did something like this.

Also important to mention this isn’t the first time they did this. Bol Hu from Nescafé basement was used in a movie without mentioning the names of the singers, just a small acknowledgement to Nescafé basement hidden in the description. https://t.co/hI48jNMgxX

Meanwhile, Salman Ahmad, sharing his thoughts on the song said: “Now Bollywood is singing Junoon. Sayonee has become the most covered, most performed Pakistani song in the subcontinent.”

Sayonee – Junoon (Azadi) https://t.co/9BgSPFG5sL When I was in college, most everyone in 🇵🇰 was singing Bollywood & western tunes on campus. Now #Bollywood is singing #Junoon. #Sayonee has become the most covered, most performed #Pakistani song in the Subcontinent #Tabdeeli
