Since the past few weeks, the internet has been grooving to the melodious tunes of Mohit Suri's Saiyaara. Apart from Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's charismatic performances and sizzling onscreen chemistry, it was the soulful music of the romantic drama which truly connected with audiences. Especially the title track Saiyaara, helmed by Irshad Kamil, Tanishk Bagchi, Faheem Abdullah and Arslan Nizami, which is hauntingly beautiful and leaves a lasting impact. Well, an AI version of the song has now gone viral in late legend Kishore Kumar's voice. The track has been put in the backdrop of Amitabh Bachchan and Moushumi Chatterjee's iconic song Rimjhim Gire Sawan from Manzil (1979). Saiyaara and the new AI track
Amitabh Bachchan and Moushumi Chatterjee's Rimjhim Gire Sawan, helmed by Kishore Kumar, continues to be one of the most iconic tracks of Bollywood, with a rainy backdrop and love in the air. Well, in viral videos, we witness the two actors running around the streets of Mumbai, enjoying the monsoons, with a version of Saiyaara in the background which gives us a strong hit of old-school romance. Did Saiyaara need an AI version? Some believe it was unnecessary. But there are others who are enjoying a new song in Kishore Da's voice. It's like a tribute to Kishore Kumar on his birth anniversary today.
This new track has reportedly been created by musicians RJ Krishna and Anshuman Sharma. Well, some fans can't get enough. For instance, a social media user gushed, 'This is so soothing, at first I thought the Saiyaara song was rewritten. And I started to search the old saiyaara ❤️,' whereas another pointed out, 'Seriously man how is his voice so divine legit any song in his voice becomes million times better !' Another impressed netizen shared, 'Peheli bar ai ka sahi istemaal dekha hai… Saiyaara song is very good, Kishore Kumars voice makes it outstanding.'
However, some netizens were left deeply disappointed. One such comment on social media read, 'No bloody AI version can take the place of Rim Jhim gire sawan song. Anyone who attempted to do this is injustice and insult to the choreography Kishir da and many other artists,' whereas another wrote, 'Only true Kishor fans will not go 'wow' on this video effort. The original song + the video is a masterpiece. None can replace them even if may seem perfect fit for some n**bs.' A comment even read, 'Horrendous. Gods gift cannot be imitated till the end of this world. It's like trying to create a rainbow, a wind, a sunshine… nope! Don't look ugly in the name of intelligence.'

Indian dance troupe mesmerises packed auditorium in Israel

Haifa (Israel), Aug 4 (PTI) India enthusiasts in Israel descended on the northern Israeli coastal city of Haifa on Monday evening to witness a rich and impressive dance performance that blended the traditional Indian dance form of Odissi with modern styles, including fusion, Bollywood, urban dance and even some shades of Middle-Eastern influences. Young dancers from the Indian dance troupe Amaiza, founded by dancer and choreographer Nitisha Nanda, known for her appearances in leading reality shows 'So You Think You Can Dance India" and 'India's Got Talent", gave a captivating performance in front of a packed Beit Aba Hushi auditorium, with the 500 people in the audience often cheering in delight. The Embassy of India in Israel, in collaboration with the Haifa Municipality, the Indian Cultural Centre and the Port of Haifa, hosted the vibrant cultural event, 'celebrating the deepening friendship between India and Israel". The northern Israeli coastal city of Haifa has a deep connection with India, having been liberated from the Ottomans in 1918 by Indian soldiers, and Major Dalpat Singh is known as the 'Hero of Haifa" for leading a successful cavalry charge that shocked military historians by its sheer audacity. 'We were taught in school that the British liberated Haifa, but I later learned that it was Indian soldiers who shed their blood to free the city," Haifa Mayor Yona Yahav told the audience. 'Once a year, we gather at the city's cemetery to honour the Indian soldiers who gave their lives to protect us," Yahav said, emphasising the city's strong bond with India. 'The relationship between India and Israel, especially with the city of Haifa, is built on trust, mutual respect and lasting friendship," India's Ambassador to Israel, J P Singh, said. 'This cultural performance is dedicated to the people of Haifa, a city with which India shares deep historical bonds. During World War I, Indian soldiers sacrificed their lives in the Battle of the Liberation of Haifa," Singh stressed. Dalpat Singh made the ultimate sacrifice in that battle, which the Indian cavalry forces fought bravely under dire circumstances to inscribe their names in the last 'major cavalry charge in history". The performance in Haifa mesmerised the audience with its passion, precision and energy, showcasing both the traditional and contemporary spirit of Indian culture. It was an evening of colour, rhythm and movement — a powerful artistic experience that left a lasting impression on the Israeli audience. The event marked the festive launch of the troupe's Israel tour, with upcoming performances scheduled at Netanya on August 5, Or Akiva on August 6 and Kibbutz Mishmar HaEmek on August 7.
