AI recreates SRK's "Haule Haule" song in Mohammed Rafi's voice, internet gives thumb up
New Delhi: In a delightful rendition, the iconic Bollywood song "Haule Haule" from the movie "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi" has resurfaced nearly 15 years after its original release. What makes this version special is that it has been recreated using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to emulate the legendary voice of Mohammed Rafi, one of the most revered playback singers in the Indian music industry.
Originally sung by Bollywood singer Sukhwinder Singh and composed by music director Salim Merchant, the song has been reimagined using AI technology, replicating the distinctive style of Mohammed Rafi. The recreated version has garnered widespread attention, capturing the hearts of netizens across social media platforms, including X (formerly known as Twitter).
Mohammed Rafi, whose legacy continues to enchant music lovers worldwide, was celebrated for his unparalleled versatility and vocal range. His repertoire included a wide array of songs, ranging from lively peppy numbers to soulful patriotic melodies, melancholic tunes to deeply romantic ballads, devotional qawwalis to poetic ghazals, and devotional bhajans to classical compositions.
"Haule Haule," a track from the 2008 film "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi," originally featured the stellar performances of Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma. The song, which was an instant hit upon its release, has once again found its way into the hearts of music enthusiasts, this time in the magical voice of Mohammed Rafi, thanks to the marvels of Artificial Intelligence.
Wow!! 🤩 🎵
