Nora Fatehi’s latest song Zaalima Coca Cola from her upcoming film Bhuj: The Pride of India was released on July 28. The song is a recreated version of Noor Jehan’s iconic song of the same name.
The recreated version has been composed by Tanishk Bagchi with lyrics by Vayu and has been sung by Shreya Ghoshal.
Noor Jehan has been given credit in the description but people are still criticising the makers for recreating a Pakistani song in an anti-Pakistani film.
Have a look at how Twitter reacted to the Indian version of song:
