Rohit Shetty’s action-packed drama Sooryavanshi is doing wonders at the box office. Apart from the high-octane action sequences, the movie also treated fans to a revamped version of the popular song “Tip Tip Barsa Pani” from the movie Mohra. While the original song featured Akshay Kumar and Raveena Tandon, the revamped version saw Katrina Kaif showing off her scintillating moves.

In an interview with India Today, Farah Khan, who choreographed the revamped version, shared that Raveena Tandon was the first one to call her after watching it. 

“Raveena was the first one to call me and say that the song is looking fab and Katrina is looking so good. Even Manish (Malhotra) was of the thought that we go away from the visuals of the original song and he’s made Katrina look like a million bucks. I also don’t think anyone could have done justice to “Tip Tip”, other than Katrina,” Farah told the outlet.

Farah also said that since the song is iconic, she felt huge pressure to deliver. Talking about collaborating with Katrina again after  “Sheila ki jawani,” Farah said, “It was an absolute delight! She is in her best shape and looking stunning, so to work with her on “Tip tip” was just perfect.”

The Tip Tip Song has been sung by veteran singers Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik. 

Meanwhile, Sooryavanshi, which is the first big-budget film to release after theatres reopened in Maharastra after the second COVID lockdown, collected Rs 77 crore on its opening weekend.
