Pop culture fans, get ready for a trip down memory lane! A video featuring playback king Sonu Nigam and the always vibrant Ishitta Arun is taking over social media. And honestly, it’s pure gold. The dynamic duo recently reunited, sending fans into a frenzy of nostalgia and admiration.
The reason for this sweet reunion? The iconic 1999 track ‘Bijuria’ is getting a fresh spin. New Bollywood stars Janhvi Kapoor and Varun Dhawan are dancing to the remade song in their upcoming film, ‘Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.’ This new version is the perfect backdrop for a friendly challenge from the OGs.
In the viral clip, Ishitta and Sonu watch the new version. Ishitta starts by saying, “The kids did well!” Sonu wholeheartedly agrees, adding, “They did great, really, really good!” But then, a playful spark ignites between them. Sonu, ever the humble artist, adds, “We also did well, right?” Ishitta quickly backs him up. “For our time, it was amazing! Remember that red jacket, Sonu? And my green outfit?” she asks, recalling their original music video look.
