Looks like HipHop Princess, Ciara, tried her hand at remixing a Bollywood track.
Ciara played with AR Rahman’s song, ‘Kehna Hi Kya’ from the Bollywood film, ‘Bombay.’ This upbeat song is entitled, ‘Turntables,’ and features none other than the always-dancing, Chris Brown. The Hindi song is heard in the first few seconds as Ciara’s track first starts.
The track isn’t quite to the caliber that we typically would expect from the dancing superstar. ‘Kehna Hi Kya’ sounds out of place and does not mesh well with Ciara’s beat. It's almost as if the two songs are playing at the same time from two different stereo’s and the listener wants to turn the volume down on the Hindi song. Ciara’s song would have done well without ‘Kehna Hi Kya’ interwoven.
Take a listen to the song posted below and let us know what you think.

isnt ciara a tran?
If you remove your history with Kehna Hi Kya (as I had to) and listen to it again, it's not bad. Granted the meaning of KHK and Turntables don't match, AT ALL, but listen to the beats and they match up pretty well. And believe me, I used to hate this song.
my goodness, i have to agree with everyone. ciara failed at fusing 2 music styles. there was no fusion at all, just layering...badly
its shity...way out of line in using da indian track gurl...stay away from bollywood lol
this track sucks! ciara is talented and kehna hi kya is a track i still blast on my ipod, this mix doesnt do justice for either track.
Out of Tune!
it could have been so good - but its kind of badly mixed... shame
