The producers of Raveena Tandon's film Maatr have confirmed that Pakistani singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan won't be appearing in a special music video as planned earlier, report.
Producer Anjum Rizvi told reporters, "It would've been ideal if we could, but unfortunately at this stage, it's not happening." The filmmakers will now apparently feature Raveena's scene from the film in the music video instead of Rahat's. However, speaking at the trailer launch of Maatr, the actress shared that she feels art and culture should not face restrictions."As far as I am concerned, I feel art, culture, music have no boundaries. Music is something which flows from within, has no walls, you can't conceal it. Once the sound, musical notes are out you can't control it."
On the other hand, music composer Vipin Patwa fought to keep Rahat's track 'Rog Jaane' for Akshara Haasan's upcoming film, Laali Ki Shadi Mein Laddoo Deewana while the makers wanted to drop the song to avoid controversy. Vipin revealed, "I thought replacing his voice would be disrespectful. I managed to convince the makers to retain his version.
When contacted, the film's producer, TP Aggarwal, admitted they wanted to "play safe". "We didn't want to offend anyone. The song is amazing, right from the composition, to the lyrics, and then there is the brilliance of Rahat saab's voice." Well, you win some, you lose some. That being said, here's another newly released song by the singer, in collaboration with Sonu Nigam for Vidya Balan's Partition flick, Begam Jaan.
