Mumbai, Jul 19: ‘Khaike Paan Banaras walla’ from Amitabh’s Don is one evergreen song. The track in which Amitabh sings about the power of banaras ka paan is still famous among people of all ages.
And now, Shah Rukh Khan is all set to revive the popular track in Farhan Akhtar’s 'Don – The Chase Begins'. He in fact is even going to sing a couple of lines from the song. The opening lines and some interludes to be precise! The actual singer of the song happens to be Udit Narayan. But it will be interesting to see Shahrukh add his own touch while chipping in his bit of vocals.
This will probably be the second time he will be taking the mike in his hand after ‘Apun Bola’ from Josh. Music composers Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy have reworked this original track. Meanwhile many have already started drawing comparisons with the old Amitabh Bachchan blockbuster of the same name, but those who are aware about the production of this film have a different story to say.
"The new Don is a modern interpretation of the old one. It's wrong to call it a complete remake. The fundamental premise is similar but there are several thrilling and unimaginable twists and turns in the film that will catch the audience unaware! It's an absolute roller coaster ride!", says our source.
'Don' releases worldwide on October 20. It is being distributed internationally by UTV.
