Originally featured in David Dhawan\u2019s 1999 entertainer Biwi No. 1<\/em>, the song starred Salman Khan and Sushmita Sen and went on to turn into some of the popular dance tracks of its time.<\/p>\n Abhijeet Bhattacharya slams the Varun Dhawan version of \u2018Chunnari Chunnari\u2019; says he \u201ccan’t be Salman Khan\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The recreated version now features Varun Dhawan alongside Mrunal Thakur and Pooja Hegde. Interestingly, each movies have been directed by David Dhawan, with the title Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai<\/em> itself inspired by one other popular song from Biwi No. 1<\/em>.<\/p>\n Amid mixed reactions from fans over the remix, Abhijeet Bhattacharya shared his opinion during a conversation with ANI and made it clear that he prefers the unique version featuring Salman Khan. Speaking concerning the song\u2019s popularity and Salman\u2019s presence in it, the singer said, \u201cYeh gaana Salman ki life ka biggest song tha. Jab aayi thi, tab se ab tak trending hai. Salman Khan ki life ka sabse bada hit hai \u2018Chunnari Chunnari<\/em>\u2019. Uss waqt ek rising star tha, not a superstar (this song was certainly one of the most important songs of Salman Khan\u2019s profession. Since its release, it has continued to stay popular and trending. It has remained to be his biggest bit. At that time, Salman was still a rising star and never yet a superstar).<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Abhijeet further took a dig at Varun Dhawan while comparing the 2 actors. \u201cThe actor has only done second-hand movies, especially when his father directed the unique movies. He also uses the identical songs that were once a success. Varun Dhawan iss gaane se Salman Khan nahin ban sakta (Varun Dhawan can’t be a Salman Khan with this song). There’s a giant difference between Salman Khan and Varun Dhawan,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n The singer also expressed disappointment over the treatment of the recreated version. \u201cAfter I heard the song, I assumed it was a bhajan. \u2018Chunnari Chunnari\u2019<\/em> was originally a romantic track, and so they have now turned it right into a bhajan,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n He concluded by adding, \u201cIn the event that they had approached me for the remake, I might still rethink before doing it. My original version had quite a lot of acting. I’m very comfortable that I didn\u2019t do the song because it might have been degraded. The best way we did it in the unique version, Varun couldn\u2019t have done it the identical manner. He played it secure.\u201d<\/p>\n Produced by Ramesh Taurani\u2019s Suggestions Movies, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai<\/em> is slated to release on June 5.<\/p>\n Also Read<\/strong>: Varun Dhawan calls David Dhawan \u201cprobably the most successful director\u201d he has worked with at PVR INOX Film Festival launch<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/stat4.bollywoodhungama.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Abhijeet-Bhattacharya-slams-the-Varun-Dhawan-version-of-%E2%80%98Chunnari-Chunnari-news.jpeg\")
