Yaara Dildaara music video: Asim Riaz’s song has fancier sets that fit the tune but we miss Sridevi

Asim Riaz

Asim Riaz has appeared in the recreation of the Sultanat song Yaara Dilbar Dildar. His music video is titled Yaara Dildaara and is bankrolled by T-series. So, of course, the sets are upgraded from what was in the 1986 film. The tunes also fit in this time around but the one big element that cannot be replaced is Sridevi. The iconic actress-dancer was all grace in the song and her charm is something we miss seeing in the music video.

Zaara Yesmin replaces Sridevi

Honestly, there is no replacing Sridevi in anything. Even if the focus is just on her eyes, they also convey a lot. Zaara was roped in for the song and while she has her own charm, T-series could not present her in the way to utilize her full potential. Thus, she comes nowhere close to the original actress, Sridevi.

Asim beats Sunny Deol

On the other hand, Asim, obviously, got more opportunity in the song than Sunny Deol did in the original. His presence alone beats the original actor in the OG song (as much as we love Sunny paaji and the song). But given the current generation where flaunting abs is the fad, Asim is nailing it.
