There are some songs that are too close to our hearts and should never be remade or remixed. It is sad how Indian music industry shamelessly releases a new version of iconic songs every passing day. And, what is even more disappointing is how the newer versions are the worse forms of original.
And, this is exactly what has happened with Neha Kakkar’s version of O Sajna was released. This song is a remake of Falguni Pathak’s Maine Payal Hai Chhankai. Many of us could recall so many childhood memories that are attached to the original song. And, sadly, with the remake version, everything great about the song is ruined.
Once the song was released, many took to social media to share their disappointment. Many called out Neha Kakkar for ruining this memorable and iconic song.
Neha Kakkar should get a reward for spoiling the most beautiful songs.

Neha Kakkar must be banned to sing any old iconic songs.

She is ruining them one after another.
Just irritating.
Also what’s the need of bland remake of old songs if they can’t give full justice to the original ones or make something better than the og.
Neha Kakkar should be punished – imprisonment for 8 years to ruin our 90’s childhood best songs.
