New Delhi: The Ali Sethi song 'Pasoori' has been recreated by the makers of the movie 'Satyaprem Ki Katha', starring Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani. Arijit Singh and Tulsi Kumar have sung the new version, and Rochak Kohli and Ali are credited with the composition. According to Rochak, they received "a lot of hatred" after the song was released, but as more people are listening to it, they "are saying that this isn't as bad as we expected," he stated in a recent interview.


Speaking to News18, Rochak added that although they can't control the reactions, they had anticipated it even before they began planning the remake. The music composer said, "Even before we created the remake, everyone including Ali and Arijit expected such reactions because it is like disrupting something that has been done really well. So the initial reactions were only on the idea that Pasoori was being recreated as many hadn’t even heard the song. We launched the song on Monday morning and we received a lot of hatred. As people are listening to it, their reactions are turning positive and are saying that this isn’t as bad as we expected,” 


According to Rochak Kohli, the song was created with "honest intentions" and "the best talent available." He continued further, "The song has the approval of the original creators. Also, we make sure that we don’t hurt anyone’s sentiments. The original song was poetic and in Punjabi, we decided to simplify it and keep it in Hindi. There were many challenges but overall we are very satisfied with the new version.”



Since the original song's debut, Arijit Singh has performed "Pasoori" at numerous concerts. Ali Sethi, who sang the song at Coachella, has been a fan of Arijit's singing abilities for a while. Ali frequently refers up Arijit's superior voice and his familiarity with classical music when discussing how Hindi film music isn't as remarkable as it once was in interviews.


'Satyaprem Ki Katha' starring Kiara Advani and Kartik Aaryan will be releasing in theatres on June 29.
