Aslam’s version, rightfully, was criticised

Mitron released in 2018.

There were three songs from the film in my collection, including the subject of this post.

The track in question was Chalte Chalte.

It was the recreated version of the song from Pakeezah (1972).

Kaifi Azmi wrote the original – a Ghulam Mohammad composition, which was sung by Lata Mangeshkar.

The involvement of Tanishk Bagchi in the recreation – which was just a couple of minutes and 58 seconds long – wasn’t restricted to composing it, but he wrote it too.

It was sung by Atif Aslam.

Mangeshkar wasn’t wrong when she criticised it.
