One
of
the
most
popular
tracks
of
recent
times,
Zingaat
has
been
recreated
for
Ishaan
Khatter
and
Janhvi
Kapoor's
Hindi
film
debut
"Dhadak"
but
the
duo
says
they
faced
no
pressure
while
shooting
for
the
popular
number.
Directed
by
Shashank
Khaitan,
Dhadak
is
an
official
Hindi
adaptation
of
2016
critically-acclaimed
Marathi
blockbuster
Sairat.
While
the
soundtrack
of
Sairat
was
a
hit,
Zingaat
went
on
to
become
a
crossover
song
took
the
audience
by
storm
-
not
only
in
the
country
but
also
internationally.
When
asked
if
recreating
the
song
was
a
intimidating,
Janhvi
told
reporters,
"There
was
no
pressure.
We
wanted
to
make
a
good
song,
something
that
is
true
to
our
film
but
we
didn't
take
any
pressure.
We
were
trying
to
play
our
characters,
trying
to
make
ourdirector
happy
and
listening
to
Farah
Khan(choreographer)
ma'am."
Ishaan
echoed
the
same
sentiment
and
said
the
song
has
a
universal
appeal
and
the
team's
effort
was
to
'capture
the
moment
and
be
sincere
to
it'.
They
were
speaking
at
the
launch
of
the
song,
here.
It
has
been
composed
by
Ajay-Atul,
who
had
also
composed
the
original
song,
and
has
lyrics
penned
by
Amitabh
Bhattacharya.
The
song
has
been
choreographed
by
Farah
Khan
and
Ishaan
said
apart
from
the
hook
step,
free
style
dominates
the
number.
"Farah
and
Shashank's
idea
was
that
we
will
not
choreograph
too
much,
we
will
define
a
hook
step
and
then
we
will
just
let
go,
let
people
dance
the
way
they
want
to
when
they
listen
to
the
song.
We
wanted
to
capture
that,"
he
said.
While
the
original
film
was
set
in
Maharashtra
and
hence
the
Marathi
word
Zingaat
went
perfectly
with
it.
When
asked
why
he
retained
the
song
title
for
"Dhadak"
which
is
based
in
Rajasthan,
Shashank
said,
"The
word
'zingaat' was
never
used
in
popular
Marathi
literature.
"It
doesn't
even
have
a
defined
meaning,
it
suggests
being
carefree.
The
way
we
have
used
it,
'naache
zing-zing-zingaat'
would
suggest
to
dance
carefree.
So
I
don't
think
there
should
be
any
problem
with
it."
