With its quirky, nostalgic appeal, the film is expected to be a crowd-pleaser. However, behind the scenes, an unexpected controversy has unfolded surrounding the film’s playback singer, Adnan Sami.
Adnan Sami’s Comeback Turns Sour
Initially, the film’s music composers, Sachin-Jigar, and the T-Series label approached renowned singer Adnan Sami to lend his voice to a romantic song. Fans and the production team were thrilled about Sami’s involvement, as it marked his return to Hindi cinema after a long hiatus. His inclusion was celebrated, and excitement grew around his powerful vocal performance.
Rajkummar Rao Raises Concerns
According to reports from NDTV, trouble began when Rajkummar Rao, who had already shot his scenes for the song, expressed concerns about syncing his lip movements to Sami’s voice. Rao reportedly felt that Sami’s vocals didn’t align with his on-screen performance. Despite the production team’s reassurances, Rao insisted on replacing the playback singer with someone whose voice he felt would better match his performance. This decision came as a shock, especially since Sami’s involvement had already been announced.
Sachin-Jigar’s Dream Collaboration
Sachin Sanghvi, part of the Sachin-Jigar duo, expressed disappointment over the turn of events in an interview with News18. He described working with Adnan Sami as a dream come true, highlighting the singer’s iconic influence on Bollywood music over the last decade. “One of the songs in the film is sung by Adnan Sami. His songs left a strong impression on me,” Sachin stated, emphasizing how much the collaboration meant to him.
Release Date Approaches Amid Controversy
Despite the ongoing drama, Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video remains on track for its theatrical release on October 11th. Fans are still eagerly awaiting the film, curious to see how the music and performances come together, even as questions linger about the decision to replace Sami.
Adnan Sami’s Bollywood Return in Jeopardy?
The controversy has cast a shadow over Adnan Sami’s much-anticipated return to Bollywood. While the film’s music continues to be composed by Sachin-Jigar, the change in playback singers has led to speculation about the final soundtrack. Sami’s fans are left wondering if this replacement will affect his future collaborations in the industry.
Conclusion
Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video may still deliver the ‘90s nostalgia it promises, but the behind-the-scenes drama has certainly added an extra layer of intrigue to its release.
