Katrina can be seen dancing with Akshay while donning a silver metallic saree in an empty amusement park in rain. The reprised version is composed by Tanishq Bagchi while Farah Khan has choreographed the moves. Katrina and Akshay had earlier paid a tribute to ‘Tip Tip Barsa Paani’ in their film ‘De Dana Dan’, with the song ‘Gale Lag Ja’, in which the actress was seen wearing a yellow saree.
Here’s how netizens reacted to the recreated version:
Earlier, Raveena Tandon ‘liked’ tweets that praised her version of ‘Tip Tip Barsa Paani’ as opposed to Katrina’s. While Katrina has received praise for her performance in the song, several ‘90s children felt the remix didn’t surpass the original version.
Although Raveena is yet to publicly comment on it, she did like two tweets that seemingly praised her version of the song. The first tweet read, “Original Tip Tip Barsa Pani is something else, that too in early 90s.” Another tweet featured moments from the original song. “Raveena Tandon in Mohra (1994) Dir.Rajiv Rai,” the tweet read, featuring her pictures from the song.
Many fans had also shared similar opinions on the YouTube video of the new song. “It’s a cute version actually. Old is on another level of sensuousness n masterpiece,” a fan said. “This is good… but no one can match Raveena Tandon….she still comes to my mind first whenever I hear this song,” another fan wrote. “Katrina is good. But Raveena was Excellent,” read another comment.
