Recently we saw Sooryavanshi hit the theatres. There was a lot of anticipation and excitement around it, especially because there was news of the film having a remake of the song Tip Tip Barsa Pani from Mohra in it.
Now since it’s a remake, there was bound to be comparisons between the two songs. And as we all know, Raveena Tandon’s performance was deemed superb in the original song. In fact, it would definitely not be an exaggeration to say that she was a major reason Tip Tip Barsa Pani turned our to be such a huge hit. The actor added a lot of value to how the song felt.
And it seems like a lot of people are disappointed at the remake, because not only is the music comparatively less enjoyable, but the video and visuals aren’t great either. Plus, the fact that it’s yet another instance where Bollywood has shown a much older man romance a younger woman (whereas, rarely do we see the opposite happening) and that it’s Akshay doing his own song all over again, which seems a tad bit irrelevant.
Here’s what the janta is saying.

Just watched #TipTipBarsaPani did not like it at all 👎 Akshay looking very aged and Kat though a good dancer but lacking that sensuality of Raveena in this song, music nowhere even close to the old one.

I think we can all agree that akshay kumar is as forgettable in the remake of tip tip barsa pani as he was in the original

The new Tip Tip Barsa Pani is an ode to Bollywood’s persistent obsession with increasingly younger women and older men and to how replaceable they think the women are but the most annoying thing about it is the implication that Akshay Kumar thinks it’s HIS song 🙄

aksh*y k*mar was COMPLETELY unnecessary in both tip tip barsa paani videos, just saying

Bollywood has ruined another iconic song. Katrina is looking so dull. Still @TandonRaveena was sooooo good and sexy in this song.

I just saw the #TipTipBarsaPani remake. After watching it I am pretty much sure that no one can recreate that magic what #raveenatandon had did. Pani me shirf tabhi lagi thi😛 . She had 103 degree fever at that time, and the performance was still recognised as cult classic. pic.twitter.com/kUVHFszmFH

Saw the new #TipTipBarsaPaani and while I absolutely stan #KatrinaKaif, let me just say that Tip Tip Barsa Paani is @TandonRaveena and yellow saree, period. The new one has neither :/ Going to go and watch the original now. pic.twitter.com/CV6ijmI4Pq

And here’s the video of the remake.
It’s definitely not about pitting two female actors against each other. More so about which song has a better essence and vibe.
