In a shocking turn of events, Indian singer Arijit Singh’s rendition of the song “Pasoori” – now released as Pasoori Nu – has left fans and music enthusiasts in a state of utter despair. The once melodious tune, originally a Coke Studio single by Shae Gill and Ali Sethi, has now been reduced to a mere cacophony of noise, generating negative reactions from both India and Pakistan.
The song, featured in the upcoming film SatyaPrem Ki Katha, has been accused of ruining the brilliance of the original, sparking a musical outrage that has transcended borders.
Social Media is Abuzz
Directed by Sameer Vidwans and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, Shareen Mantri Kedia, and Kishor Arora, SatyaPrem Ki Katha stars Kartik Aaryan, Kiara Advani, Shikha Talsania, Ritu Shivpuri, Supriya Pathak, Mahru Sheikh, and Gajraj Rao. While the film’s cast and crew eagerly await the movie’s release, the controversy surrounding “Pasoori” has cast a dark shadow over their efforts.
Social media has been abuzz with scathing reviews and hilarious memes, as fans from both sides of the border express their disappointment and anger. One user tweeted, “Arijit Singh’s rendition of Pasoori is like mixing ketchup with biryani – a culinary and musical disaster!” Another chimed in saying, “If I wanted to listen to a cat screeching, I would have just stepped on its tail. #PasooriRuined.”
Pakistanis Outraged With Pasoori Nu
Pakistanis are rightfully outraged at the new release and want answers to Bollywood’s blatant hypocrisy towards Pakistan. While the industry has an ‘All-Pakistan ban in place’ with Pakistani artists being isolated and secluded from all recent releases, Pasoori has somehow made the cut.
As the dust settles on this musical debacle, one thing is for certain – “Pasoori” will forever be remembered as a cautionary tale of how not to remake a classic. In the immortal words of one disgruntled fan, “Arijit, you had one job. ONE JOB!”
