Tere Bin song review: Recycled Simmba song has nothing going for it, not even Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan

The new Rohit Shetty action drama Simmba seems to be completely relying on old hits. Both the songs released so far have been rehashed versions of popular hits. After the first song Aankh Mare which was a recreated version of Tere Mere Sapne song, the second song Tum Bin was released on Friday.

This song is again recreated version of a popular Nusrat Fateh Ali Song Tere Bin Nahin Lagda. Unlike the original which had only Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan doing the honours behind the mic, the fresh version has Rahat Fateh Ali Khan who is joined by Asees Kaur. Tanishk Bagchi who has awarded himself the contract to destroy old bollywood songs, does a rather awesome job (in killing the original song).

The song is supposed to be a love song between the lead pair Ranveer and Sara. Shot in the picturesque Switzerland, it is not a Yash Chopra like song but there are elements like Sara in a sari. But don\’t expect too much as the song is just not up to the mark.

A romantic song in an out and out Rohit Shetty cop drama is odd and you know it\’s there as a dream sequence and is not going to add any value to the narrative. The first song too is a filler song and I won\’t be surprised if it comes in the end credit.

Tere Bin has been a let down and it is not what the makers promised it to be. May be I will watch old romantic song to quench my thirst for a good romantic number.
