Ciara Inspired by Bollywood

By Ratanjot Rekhi

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.

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.
