Payal Dev on recreating Mika’s ‘Sawan mein lag gayi aag’

Mumbai (IANS) – Singer Payal Dev prefers to avoid recreating music, but when she tried her hand at the job recently with an old pop hit, she realised regenerating the magic of a popular number was indeed challenging.

Payal has recreated the Mika Singh hit of the late nineties, “Sawan mein lag gayi aag” for the upcoming rom-com “Ginny Weds Sunny”.

“I usually avoid recreating old songs but the film’s Vinod Bachchanji gave me this responsibility of recreating ‘Sawan mein lag gayi aag’ in a new form and present it in the film, it was a big task for me to regenerate the same magic in this iconic number. It was challenging,” Payal said.
