"That version of O. P. Nayyar's 'Jaata kahan hain deewane' which you are hearing everywhere is not mine. The one that's out is remixed by Mike Cleary."

Amit has done a remix of the Geeta Dutt number in Bombay Velvet. But a far more faithful version! Explains the composer, "The remix I've done is a part of the narrative in the film. It's a very broken-down basic version. It suits the purposes of Anushka's characters."

Apparently, Amit is in principle opposed to remixes and he put up a strong fight against it, during the recording of the music in Bombay Velvet.

Says Trivedi, whose original songs in English Vinglish, Kai Po Che and Queen have regaled the discerning music listener, "I don't know why remixes are being done. If a director comes to me to do one, I do it as my job. Maybe, they don't believe I can deliver a tune like the old vintage songs. Such lovely songs created in the past are being remixed. Some are nice. Some are not nice." You won't believe this, but a lot of youngsters in the production team of Bombay Velvet thought 'Jaata kahan hain deewane' was my composition. Youngsters are not interested in old songs unless it is re-packaged."

Now, we hear that Vikas Bahl has also decided to do a remix in Shandaar which Amit Trivedi is scoring music for. "I don't know about that. But I am no part of it," laughs Amit nervously.

Remixes suck. Ruins most good songs. Haven't heard many remixes that i liked more than original songs.

Feel bad for Amit, although I haven't actually heard the remixes from BV.

Mikey's remix of Fifi worked for me just like Trivedi's remix of Hungama worked for me.

Oh yes!! I completely forgot about that. Then why is he giving such statements when he has done the same ...not so long ago. Very weird. 😕
