The actor scored his first big hit with Abbas-Mustan’s Khiladi and went on to do films like Ajnabee and Aitraaz with them. “Due to Abbas-Mustan I got my first hit film Khiladi and I am grateful to them. I would have done anything for them today.”

The new version stars Kiara Advani and the actress says she showed the song to the original star Raveena two days before the release. “I showed her the song two days back and she loved it. I wanted to get her blessings. It was surreal to do the song. I used to dance in front of mirror to this song and I got opportunity to do it (dance) in front of camera,” Kiara said.
