Mere Mehboob revisit fails to recreate ’90s magic
The song starts with a slow-motion romantic dance of Vicky and Triptii at a serene location. Apart from the conflict between Vicky and Ammy Virk over trying to prove themselves, there are also moments of them bonding with each other. In the end, the duo end up sharing the bed with each other after Triptii scares them by narrating a horror story. Fans do not seem very impressed with the background score as compared to the original and asked why would they spoil a classic song.

Because he owns this song.” A user wrote, “Ruined the song well.” Another user commented, “Why can’t they make new songs.” A user also opined, “Another old classic song spoiled …stop spoiling old classic song.. specially SRK songs.”
