Nora Fatehi can be seen grooving on a reprised version of Rekha's Ek toh Kum Zindagani from Jaanbaaz in the new movie Marjaavaan. Read here to know the details.
After crossing 300 million views for 'Dilbar' and 40 million views for 'Saki Saki' on Youtube, Nora Fatehi is back and has been receiving immense popularity with her reprised version of ‘Ek Toh Kum Zindagani’. Within just one day, the song from the film Marjaavaan crossed 20 million views on YouTube. And within a week, it gained 50 million views on YouTube.
Nora Fatehi hails from Canada. She made her acting debut with the Bollywood movie Roar: Tigers of the Sundarbans in 2014. The Canadian dancer has created a loyal fan base for herself after first being seen in Big Boss season 9. After that, she entered Bollywood with her first dance number Dilbar in Satyamev Jayate.
This song is a reprised version of Rekha’s iconic hit number ‘Pyaar Do Pyaar Lo’ from the movie Janbaaz (1986). Janbaaz starred Firoz Khan, Anil Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, and Sridevi. The Nora Fatehi’s dance number released on the occasion of Rekha’s birthday on October 10. It has gathered a lot of appreciation since then.
Netizens' reaction
Since the song is a reprised version of a very famous song featuring iconic actor Rekha, the opinions on the new version have been mixed. While some love watching Nora Fatehi dance on the new song, others say that Bollywood is spoiling old popular songs by making new versions of them every month. Some also say that there is not much creativity involved in picking up a famous song from the past and making a reprised version of it. ‘Ek Toh Kum Zindagani’ is not the first time an original song has been remade. Akshay Kumar in Thank You has also danced on a reprised version of 'Pyaar Do Pyaar Lo'.
