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!! 🤩 🎵

Punishment for those disrupting assembly proceedings, warns Speaker UT Khader
Belagavi: Speaker U.T. Khader on Friday warned that members who disrupt Assembly proceedings by talking in their seats during debates will be made to sit in the House for an entire day as a disciplinary measure.
The warning came after the Question Hour, when Deputy Leader of the Opposition Arvind Bellad was permitted to initiate a discussion on the development of North Karnataka.
At this point, expelled BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal objected, stating that he had been seeking a debate for the past three days but had not been given an opportunity.

Responding to the objection, Speaker Khader said Bellad had already been granted permission and assured Yatnal that he would be allowed to speak at the next opportunity. He noted that even as a serious discussion was underway, several MLAs were speaking among themselves with their microphones on, disrupting the proceedings.
Expressing displeasure over the conduct of members, Khader likened the situation to football, where players receive red, yellow, or white cards for violations. Similarly, he said, the Assembly issues warning cards to members who disturb the House. If they fail to correct themselves despite repeated warnings, they would be required to remain seated in the Assembly hall for a full day as punishment, he stated.
