Basanti wouldn’t hAVe been thrilled

Basanti – the character played by Hema Malini in Sholay (1975) – may have been forced to dance by Gabbar Singh (Amjad Khan’s character), but the abandon with which Emraan Hashmi and Shraddha Kapoor shook a leg to Dance Basanti, the item number in Ungli (2014), wouldn’t have left her impressed.

Nonetheless, the track, which Amitabh Bhattacharya penned and had the now-customary English words, was catchy.

It was the shorter of the two tracks from the film on this blog – it was three minutes and 43 seconds long.

Anushka Manchanda and Vishal Dadlani rendered the Sachin-Jigar composition.
