Sreerama Chandra Says Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone Were ‘Hot Couple' In YJHD
Last Updated: Sreerama Chandra, who gave Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani fans the timeless song Subhanallah, recently recalled his thoughts during Subhanallah's recording days. Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone 's starrer Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani remains a fan favourite to date. More than a decade since the release of the romantic comedy, audiences still love the epic love story, heartwarming portrayal of friendship and meaningful life lessons shown in the film. But what resonates deeply with fans are the soulful and foot-tapping soundtracks like Subhanallah, Kabira, Ilahi, Balam Pichkari and Dilliwali Girlfriend. Having said that, singer Sreerama Chandra, who gave YJHD fans the timeless song Subhanallah, recently recalled his thoughts during the song's recording days. He sat for a chat with an entertainment media portal and candidly shared that he wasn't sure whether it would make it to Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani's final cut. In an interview with Zoom, the singer and Indian Idol winner said, 'Back then, Arijit Singh was working with Pritam Dada. He was the one who played the song for me and recorded my voice. A couple of days later, Dada asked me to redub since the lyrics had changed. Dada was there. I wasn't sure whether the song would make it to the film. Two to three months later, the first song, Balam Pichkari's promo, was released. I had recorded the song, but Vishal Dadlani's version made it to the final cut." Elaborating further, Sreerama stated, 'I wasn't confident about Subhanallah's fate. It was the least and last promoted song. Sabhi gaane itne superhit the. After a few years, the song started getting popular. While all other songs were enjoyed back then, Subhanallah found its audience now." 'But I'm proud of Subhanallah and am happy to see the response it has been getting now. A singer desires such feedback from the audience," he added, expressing his happiness for the overwhelming response. During the same chat, he explained why the makers promoted other songs over Subhanallah. Sreeram said, 'Back then, dance numbers were popular. Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone were the hot couple, and songs like 'Dilliwali Girlfriend' were commercial. Subhanallah was a melody of young love. I believe melodies have a better shelf life than dance numbers." Coming to Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, the film released on May 31, 2013. The romantic drama, directed by Ayan Mukerji, also starred Kalki Koechlin and Aditya Roy Kapur in lead roles. Sreerama Chandra's musical journey began in 2006 after renowned music director Mickey J Meyer gave him the opportunity to sing for the movie Notebook. However, his win in Indian Idol season 5 in 2010 proved to be a turning point in his career, paving the way for his appearances in several Telugu and Bollywood films. A year after winning the trophy of Indian Idol, he made his Bollywood debut in 2011 with the movie Mere Brother Ki Dulhan. Sreerama has continued to captivate audiences with his melodious voice over the years, contributing to chartbusters from films like Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, 1920: London, All Is Well, Sanam Teri Kasam, Race 3, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, Raees, Khiladi 786, and, most recently, Chandu Champion.

Muzammil Ibrahim Claims Was Removed From YJHD: 'This Had Nothing To Do With Deepika'
Last Updated: Muzammil claimed that Ayan Mukerji assured him that he would give him the script of the film, but it never happened. Ayan Mukerji's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani remains one of the most popular films to date. Released in 2013, the movie starred Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Aditya Roy Kapur and Kalki Koechlin in the lead. However, in one of his recent interviews, actor Muzammil Ibrahim claimed that when Ayan was writing his movie, he was considering him for the role of Avi – which was later played by Aditya Roy Kapur. 'Ayan liked me a lot. He told me that he was writing Yeh Jaawani Hai Deewani keeping me in mind," Muzammil told Siddharth Kannan. Asked if this had anything to do with Deepika Padukone, who was in a relationship with him in the past, Ibrahim shared, 'This had nothing to do with her". However, he claimed that it was he who suggested Deepika's name for the movie. 'He would often discuss casting with me, if he should take Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif… He would discuss this with me. We were very close. Deepika was the right cast for that film and I told him the same thing," Muzammil said. Talking about what fell apart and why he was not a part of YJHD, Muzammil shared, 'What happened was… it went to the casting agents later on. And I hashed it out for a long time because there was a misunderstanding between me and Ayan for a long time as to why he didn't cast me." Muzammil claimed that Ayan assured him that he would give him the script of the film, but it never happened. He blamed casting agents for the same and alleged that they played dirty. 'Ayan told me that he will give me the script to read. And the casting agents came in the way and what they did, and how they communicated between me and Ayan," he said. 'Ayan told me that I really wanted you in this film so obviously you feel… The casting agents really f**ked up things a lot. They have their own agendas and how they communicate things to the director. As long as things were between me and Ayan, we never had a slip. When it came to the casting agents, they did a lot of favouritism," the actor added. First Published:
