The sexy songstress, Nicole Scherzinger's English version of A.R. Rahman's "Jai Ho" is a track that has been quite successful. Well it just so happens that Nicole was apprehensive about remixing the Oscar winning song! Nicole Scherzinger told Desi Hits! "I was scared, I was afraid to let people hear it, to be honest I really didn't want to do it."

Nicole like many others felt as though the song was perfect and that it couldn't be remade. However, after giving it some thought Nicole Scherzinger felt she could create a English adaptation to the captivating track. Nicole Scherzinger valued the original song so much that she looked for some spiritual guidance to help her recreate the song. "I prayed every night to do this right," said the singer. Nicole put her heart into writing the lyrics and put in themes from the film, "Slumdog Millionaire". Love and destiny were elements from the movie that she put into the track.

We gave Nicole Scherzinger her first experience to Desi culture when we hooked her up with a hot saree to wear to New York's  Fashion Week kick-off, "Fashion Rocks" and it's great to see Nicole still embracing the Desi culture!
