am
so
thrilled
with
the
response
from
my
Indian
fans
to
'Future
Nostalgia'.
I
had
an
amazing
time
in
India
in
2019,
and
so
I
always
wanted
to
do
something
special
for
them.
The
Indian
music
icon
Amaal
Mallik
has
remixed
the

much
as
I

be
collaborating
with
such
a
talented
pop
star
and
global

is
something
we
all
love,
hence
it's
quite
an
honour
for
me
to
be
doing
the
official
India
remix,
giving
an
Indian
touch
to
one
of
her

tracks.
Prakriti
Kakar,
Sukriti
Kakar,
Kunaal
Vermaa
and
I
feel
elated
to
be
coming
together
to
remix
Levitating,
one
of
the
standout
songs
on
the
'Future
Nostalgia'
album!
Congratulations
are
in
order
for
Dua
on
her
Grammy
win,
and
I
think
it's
the
best
time
to
be
dropping
this
track
of
ours.
I
look
forward
to
the
reception."
Sukriti
Kakar
also
opened
up
about
the
collaboration,
"Dua
Lipa
was
the
reason
I
wrote
my
first
single
in
2019.
I've
been
following
her
work
so
closely
since
the
very
beginning.
We've
been
so
inspired
by
her
work
for
as
long
as
I
can
remember."
"Levitating
has
been
literally
everywhere,
and
everyone
knows
it
word
for
word.
We've
made
an
Indian
version
of
the
song,
and
I
can't
wait
to
share
it
with
the
world!
I'm
so
excited
that
I
got
to
do
this
with
my
twin
sister
Prakriti,
as
well
as
Amaal
Malik
who
produced
the
remix
and
gave
it
a
desi
touch,
as
we
all
have
been
long-time
fans
of
Dua
and
her
world
of
music!" she
added.
Prakriti
Kakar
added,
"Collaborating
with
Dua
Lipa
is
nothing
short
of
a
dream
for
us.
We
have
always
been
her
fan
from
her
first
few
songs,
and
today,
when
she
is
one
of
the
most
streamed
artists
in
the
world,
we
still
don't
miss
a
single
song
or
performance.
She's
also
one
of
the
biggest
inspirations
behind
our
songwriting
career."
"To
have
sung
on
a
remix
of
her
massive
hit
'Levitating'
is
both
an
honour
and
a
responsibility
for
us.
I
hope
people
enjoy
our
Indian
take
on
the
song.
Amaal
Mallik
has
produced
this
official
remix,
giving
it
a
whole
new
approach!
We
hope
people
enjoy
this
one
just
as
much
as
they've
enjoyed
the
original
song," he
