Bollywood is the most popular entertainment industry, especially for the fantastic songs that it has treated us over the years. In recent years, Bollywood has tried to expand its entertainment sphere into the Punjabi Industry as it gave us so many remakes of Punjabi Songs. Some remakes will always be in our hearts while some are a disgrace to the original ones. So, here we are with the list of Punjabi songs that were ruined by Bollywood -
This song from Door Ke Darshan is a pure disappointment as even the word 'Laadiye' is not pronounced well in the remake. The original song was sung by Musarrat Nazir.
Laal Ghaghra from Akshay Kumar's Good Newwz is a remake of the song Lal Ghagra by Sahara. The original track was a fun peppy dance number while the remake was also entertaining but did not gain much popularity.
This version from Varun Dhawan and Shradhha Kapoor's Street Dancer 3D was sung by Guru Randhawa and Tulsi Kumar while the original was by Guru Randhawa. The remake lacks the feel and has not done justice to the original one.
Sauda Khara Khara from Akshay Kumar's Good Newwz was a good try but Bollywood made it a bit dramatic which was not praised by the Bollywood lovers. Sukhbir Singh lends his voice to the original track while the remake was by Diljit Dosanjh, Sukhbir, and Dhvani Bhanushali.
This remake from Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra's 'Namastey England was sung by Badshah, Diljit Dosanjh and Aastha Gill while the original was by Badshah and Diljit. The remake tried to win the hearts but failed to put out the charm on the big screen.
Illegal Weapon 2.0 from the movie 'Street Dancer 3D' (2020) stands out from the remake of the 2017 original of Garry Sandhu with Jasmine Sandlas (Illegal Weapon). While the original track was highly praised, the remake did not stand up to the expectations of the viewers.
The original track was a fabulous treat by Punjabi MC but the makers of Baaghi 2 failed to express the song's value with its bad remake. Sung by Palak Muchhal and Navraj Hans, the remake was not appreciated by the fans.
The song was remade for the film 'Ek Ladki Ko Dekha To Aisa Laga' that featured Sonam Kapoor but it did not match with the vibe of the original. Navraj Hans gave his voice to the remake.
The remake song Rail Gaddi was sung by Navraj Hans and Swati Sharma and is a disappointment. The original song was sung by Mangal Singh and became a popular party piece at the end of Indian weddings.
This Laung Laachi version from the film Luka Chuppi was originally sung by Mannat Noor and is a true disgrace to the original one. Sung by Tulsi Kumar, the remake featured Kriti Sanon and Kaartik Aaryan.
