Old songs getting reprised is not new in Bollywood especially these days. ‘Humma Humma’ song from ‘OK Jaanu’, Tan Tana Tan Tan Tan Tara’ from ‘Judwaa’ and now Sushmita Sen’s ‘Dilbar Dilbar’ song has been reprised in John Abraham-starrer ‘Satyamev Jayate‘. The new version of the ‘Dilbar’ features actor/model Nora Fatehi who sizzles and impresses with her belly dance. Though we can’t stop gushing at her moves, we can’t get over Sushmita’s moves in the original song. Sushmita’s sensuous moves, passionate dance and mesmerising expressions of Sushmita Sen made the song more famous than the film itself.
