The gen-next star of Bollywood Kartik Aaryan who enjoyed phenomenal success with Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety is soon coming to woo us again with Kriti Sanon in his upcoming film Luka Chuppi. The story of this desi rom-com will travel from Mathura to Gwalior and Agra and if the trailer is anything to by, it is going to be an entertaining ride. Kartik is playing the character of a star reporter from a local TV channel. On the other hand, Kriti plays a Mathura girl who had gone to Delhi to study and now is back in her hometown. While the buzz was always there, it has only amped up now! Also Read - Janhvi Kapoor to Mrunal Thakur: Can you guess real age of young Bollywood actresses?

In fact, it will definitely garner more headlines cause the makers have dropped the first song of the album, a remix of the 90s song Yeh Khabar Chapwa Do that featured Akshay Kumar and Urmila Matondkar. The redux has been recreated by White Noise studios and has been choreographed by Vijay Ganguly. But while the core tune is the same, coupled with familial shenanigans true to the theme of the film, this version fails to recreate the same magic. Yes, it is nice to see Aparshakti Khurrana, Pankaj Tripathi and the entire fam shake a leg, the track minus the hook line falls flat on face. Watch the video here.

The film has been bankrolled by Dinesh Vijan and has been directed by Laxman Utekar who has worked in films like Blue, Dear Zindagi and English Vinglish. It is all set to release on 1st March.

BL Verdict: The remix does not do justice to the original number. Apart from the hook line and the visual of the entire family dancing together, nothing else registers.
