Ishitta Arun and Sonu Nigam have reunited after 26 years to recreate their iconic 1999 hit song "Bijuria". The reunion is not a simple remake but a playful and humorous revisit to the classic track.
The pair's recreation takes the form of a funny Instagram video skit. In the skit, Ishitta and Sonu contemplate recreating "Bijuria," which is featured in the upcoming romantic comedy Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor. They playfully discuss the new version, with Ishitta commenting, "Bachchon ne accha kiya hai" (The kids have done well), and Sonu agreeing, "Bohot mast kiya hai, bohot accha kiya hai" (They've done a great job, really good). Sonu then cheekily adds, "Humne bhi accha hi kiya tha" (We also did it well).
Reminiscing about their original music video, Ishitta recalls, "Hamare zamane ke hisaab se bohot accha tha. Red jacket, green dress... yaad hai na, Sonu?" (For our time, it was great. Red jacket, green dress… remember, Sonu?). Sonu, looking tired, sighs, "Ab nahi kar payenge yaar" (We won't be able to do it now). Shocked, Ishitta replies, "Kya matlab?" (What do you mean?), before playfully yanking him by the arm and declaring, "Mat bhoolo hum kaun hai… karke dikhayenge!" (Don't forget who we are… we'll show them!).
The skit then cuts to a shot of them fully dressed up, dancing energetically to the updated version of "Bijuria," seamlessly mixing original choreography with the new version. However, before the energetic dance, they clutch their backs in mock pain. Ishitta captioned the video as, “26 years later and the answer is still the same, of course we can do it".
The original "Bijuria" was a popular song from the album Mausam. The new version of "Bijuria" features in the movie Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, with Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf in the video. The song is composed by Tanishk Bagchi and Ravi Pawar, sung by Sonu Nigam and Asees Kaur, with lyrics by Sonu Nigam and Tanishk Bagchi.
The new version of the song retains the original lyrics by Sonu Nigam and Ajay Jhingran, with additional lyrics by Tanishk Bagchi. The music production is by Tanishk Bagchi.
