Nowadays there is a craze for cover versions all over India, especially the revisited versions of the retro classics of Bollywood. There is a trend going on in most of the Bollywood movies to revisit the hit songs of the 70s, 80s, and 90s but most of them fail to bring back the old charm due to torturous raps put in-between the songs. However, you could feel the delight of the retro classics in the new versions done by the Indian pop-rock band SANAM which consists of Sanam puri (Lead Vocals), Samar Puri (Lead Guitar), Venky S (Bass Guitar) and Keshav Dhanraj (Drums). Together they endeavour to bring back the band culture and Indie music into India after a significant gap. Let see some Sanam puri songs video.
