- The Gopis, an all-women bhajan-pop group, created a devotional version of Dhurandhar's Naal Nachna
- Original Naal Nachna features Sara Arjun and Ranveer Singh with lyrics by Irshad Kamil and Rebel
- Some social media users praised the bhajan version, while others found it offensive
Who says bhajans can't be peppy? The Gopis is an artist group known for bhajan-pop and bhajan clubbing. They have recently given Dhurandhar's Naal Nachna a devotional twist, turning it into a Hari Naam Japna bhajan.
The bhajan, which was released a couple of weeks ago, has garnered more than 80,000 views. In an Instagram video, the spiritual girl group asked, "What if Dhurandhar's Naal Nachna was Hari Naam Japna?"
The upbeat Bollywood song featuring Sara Arjun and Ranveer Singh is addictive, but wait until you hear the bhajan created by the all-women bhajan-pop group. Even if you are not into bhajan clubbing, you will be humming the song throughout the day once you hear it. Chances are, you will forget the original lyrics of Naal Nachna, sung by Afsana Khan and Rebel.
Dhurandhar Song Gets A Devotional Twist
The lyrics of Sara and Ranveer's song Naal Nachna were written by Irshad Kamil in collaboration with artist Rebel. The lyrics read:
Verse 1
Duniya di sundi na behri jawaani
Masti 'ch mastaayi zehri jawaani
Duniya di sundi na behri jawaani
Masti 'ch mastaayi zehri jawaani
Raaton ke iraade se kya bachna
Chorus
Maine toh tere naal nachna
Maine toh tere naal nachna
Maine toh tere naal nachna
Maine toh tere naal Nachna
The bhajan-pop group turned it into a Krishna bhajan. The lyrics of the bhajan read as follows:
Verse 1
Duniya se door hui, hui mai deewani
Tere deedar ko main jaun balihari
Duniya se door hui, hui mai deewani
Tere deedar ko main jaun balihari
Kanha ka he dekha maine sapna
Chrous
Maine to Hari naam japna
Maine to Hari naam japna
Maine to Hari naam japna
Maine to Hari naam japna
Social Media Reactions
A user wrote, "Awesome... Thanks for the version of my recent favourite song."
Another wrote, "Amazing."
A third commented, "Wow, kya song hai yaar [What a song]."
But a few people were not impressed by the bhajan twist on the Dhurandhar song. A few even found it offensive and wrote that the group should not be mocking Hindu devotional songs or disrespecting hymns.
About Naal Nachna From Dhurandhar
Naal Nachna from Dhurandhar is a high-energy track starring Ranveer Singh and Sara Arjun. This is the second time their characters interact in the film. Yalina, in a modern, blingy outfit, locks eyes with Hamza Ali Mazari, also known as Jaskirat Singh Rangi.
Naal Nachna was released on YouTube about five months ago and has crossed 75 million views so far. It is now a must-play at parties and clubs.
To spend more time with Yalina, Hamza tips off the police to raid the club, and then helps her escape on his new bike, gifted to him by Rehman Dakait, while Monica O My Darling, another catchy song, plays in the background. At the end of the high-octane chase, Hamza returns Yalina's phone, leaving her impressed.
