Coolie No. 1: Varun Dhawan, Sara Ali Khan recrete 90s magic with 'Mirchi Lagi To'

Mumbai: Magic was recreated onscreen as 'Mirchi Lagi To' song from Sara Ali Khan and Varun Dhawan's Coolie No. 1 was released by its makers on Monday.

Actor Varun Dhawan shared the song on his Twitter handle for his fans.

Sara and Varun have worked hard to recreate the 90s magic with the song that originally featured in Govinda's Coolie No. 1.

The song was considered as one of the major hits of 90s era.

However, the new song looked different as the sights and sounds of a Chowpatty streetside of the original have been replaced by a set with pop colours in the new song.  

The song, however, featured original singers Kumar Sanu and Alka Yagnik.  

Speaking about the new version, director David Dhawan told Hindustan Times, “Songs from the original Coolie No. 1 are hugely popular and timeless, according to me these tracks also helped the film."

"I was always clear that if I ever made this film again, I would use these blockbuster songs. The songs from the original were created by music directors Anand Milind and written by lyricist Sameer, who are close to me," he said.

"We have done a lot of work together, by including these songs in the new Coolie No.1 it was my way to payback," he said.

The new movie is a remake of 90s movie by the same name.

The original featured Govinda and Karisma Kapoor in the lead roles.

The new film will release on Amazon Prime on Dec 25.

Both the films have been directed by David Dhawan.
