Rail Gaddi
While the original dates back to 2008, the new number from the movie “Tutak Tutak Tutiya” lacks the zeal. The original has always put our feet to work, we hope the new one does justice to the old one.
I couldn’t find any video for the original “Punjabi” version, but you can listen the song here.
Bollywood Version:
Soch
I am sure many of you will agree that the original song was way better than the movie track. The changed version was used in the movie Airlift. The new one surely lacked emotions and that feel the previous one had.
