Though the stunning stars, Vicky Kaushal and Kiara Advani lit the dance floor in ‘Kya Baat Hai 2.0’, it is once again a remake of a chart-topping track. Is Bollywood out of creative artists to compose fresh music?
The star cast of the upcoming Bollywood film ‘Govinda Naam Mera’, unveiled the new track ‘Kya Baat Hai 2.0’ from the comedy flick on Tuesday. While both Kaushal and Advani received rave reviews, especially for their fiery moves on the dance number, it has once again raised the burning question that ‘Is Bollywood out of musical creativity?

The recreation of the 2018 chartbuster ‘Kya Baat Hai’, by Punjabi musicians, Harrdy Sandhu, B Praak and Jaani, is done by the infamous music composer Tanishk Bagchi. The original singer has lent the vocals to the remake with Nikhita Gandhi.
