Sonal Chauhan thrilled as fans sing 'Zara Sa' from 'Jannat' live for her at T20 World Cup
Mumbai, March 10
Actress Sonal Chauhan was left thrilled and pleasantly surprised when a section of fans seated at the recent T20 World Cup match in the stadium Ahmedabad began singing her iconic song "Zara Sa Dil Mein De Jagah Tu" after spotting her in the VIP stands.
The actress took to her social media account to share a video capturing the adorable moment. In the video clip shared by Sonal, the actress can be seen standing in the VIP gallery at the packed stadium as fans hum her popular track from her debut film Jannat.
The actress, clearly touched by the gesture, was seen smiling warmly and waved back at the crowd while recording the moment on her phone.
Sharing the video, she wrote, "This was so soooo special. Couldn't capture the whole moment. But it was just too special the way you all sang my song ZARA SA.... I'm sure my smile says it all. Thank you Ahmedabad. I love you Gujrat. I LOVE YOU ALL. Thank you for making me smile always."
For the uninitiated, Sonal Chauhan made her Bollywood debut opposite Emraan Hashmi in the 2008 romantic thriller Jannat, directed by Kunal Deshmukh and produced by Mukesh Bhatt under Vishesh Films.
The film became widely popular, particularly for its music.
One of the most memorable tracks from the film, "Zara Sa Dil Mein De Jagah Tu," went on to become a chartbuster and is even popular today on social media.
The song was sung by the late star singer KK, composed by Pritam, and written by Sayeed Quadri.
Talking about Sonal, over the years, has appeared in several Hindi, Telugu, and Kannada films, including Bbuddah... Hoga Terra Baap, 3G, and others.
However, Chauhan continues to be fondly remembered by audiences for her role in Jannat and more for the popularity of its music.

Jannat's music album was something else! KK's voice, Pritam's music... pure magic. Good to see Sonal getting this recognition even after so many years. The song still gives me chills.
Heartwarming moment. This is what makes our film culture special – the connection between stars and the public. Also, a T20 match in Ahmedabad is always electric. Double win! 🏏🎶
While this is a nice feel-good story, I sometimes wish our fan culture would celebrate actors for their recent work as passionately as they do for nostalgic hits. Sonal has done other films too.
KK sir's legacy lives on through songs like these. This moment is as much a tribute to him as it is to Sonal. Miss his voice terribly. What a beautiful, spontaneous thing for the fans to do.
Typical Indian stadium moment – where cricket and Bollywood merge! Only in our country. 😄 Glad she appreciated it. Ahmedabad knows how to host and how to make guests feel special.
