Lights, camera, disaster. If there a certain way to explain the rehash of Madhuri Dixit’s classic song ‘Ek Do Teen’ starring Jacqueline Fernandez, it’s by calling it an epic failure of great magnitude.
Overtly sexualized, (we’re not denying that the original wasn’t for its time), the video featuring Bollywood siren Jacqueline – who is gyrating through the song, loses much of the graceful steps and charisma Madhuri had attained cult status with.
Although the song features some of the same aesthetics, it by no means come close to the original. From Shreya Ghoshal’s vocals to the skimpy costumes, the song does everything wrong in a bid to create the next ‘Mohini’ or ‘pay tribute’ to her.
One amongst a plethora of renditions now mushrooming in Bollywood, ‘Ek Do Teen’ serves as an example of why some classics should remain classics.
