Gitaz Bindrakhia Croons Father's Songs For 'Mixtape Punjabi'

Darpan News Desk IANS, 28 Dec, 2017 12:22 PM
    Singer Gitaz Bindrakhia says he is in favour of recreating songs as his late father and singer Surjit Bindrakhia had a catalogue of old songs that can be recreated for the current generation.
     
    "Nowadays, recreations are a trend. It works really well for me as my dad had a catalogue of old songs that can be recreated for today's generation. One song that I really wanted to recreate from my father's catalogue was 'Tera yaar bolda', and T-Series made my dream come true," Gitaz said in a statement.
     
    The sixth episode of "T-Series Mixtape Punjabi" that went live on Thursday was a contemporary folk fusion by Gitaz. He performed to his father's songs "Tera yaar bolda" and "Mukhda dekh ke". 
     
     
    "It's a really good concept to take father's legacy forward," Gitaz said.
     
    "It's all about the new vibe in this mix; Abhijit Vaghani has been instrumental in keeping the folk and contemporary moods together," he added.
