was
then
remixed
for
Shraddha
Kapoor
and
Aditya
Roy
Kapur's
OK
Jaanu
and
quite
a
lot
of
people
disliked
the
newer
version
of
the
song
and
considered
it
as
an
insult
to
the
original
classic.
The
music
for
both
Bombay
and
OK
Jaanu
was
composed
by
A.R
Rahman
and
when
asked
if
he
felt
happy
remixing
the
original
classic,
he
said,
"I wasn't happy with the idea, initially. I was really hesitant about it at the start... But Shaad (the film's director) was insistent. He kept on asking if we could use the song. So I asked Tanishk to come up with the first four bars of the song, and I kind of liked the beat. It sounded good and a bit different."
Singer Remo Fernandes, who sang the original track back in 1995 came down heavily on the new version of the song by saying, "The song is a pale, insipid version of the original."
