Sonam Kapoor: 'Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai' has been one of my favourite songs from my career

Sonam Kapoor reminisces about her iconic songs "Prem Ratan Dhan Payo" and "Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai" as they cross 1 billion YouTube views.

"This has always been one of my favourite songs from my career—and it still makes it to my dance playlist! - Sonam Kapoor"

Mumbai, June 20

As her songs “Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo” and “Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai” got over one billion views on YouTube, actress and fashionista Sonam Kapoor talked about the two tracks.

Talking about the title track of “Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo” starring Salman Khan. The film has completed 10 years in Hindi cinema. It followed the story of Prem, who looks like Prince Yuvraj Vijay Singh, who replaces him just before his half-brother is set to be crowned as the king. Although Princess Maithili is engaged to Vijay, she falls in love with Prem.

Sonam said: “I still remember when the Prem Ratan Dhan Payo title track was released—what a time it was! The Dubsmash videos were everywhere. It totally broke the internet.”

She said that she had the best time shooting for it.

“It honestly feels like it happened just yesterday. I’m so touched that people still love the song... it really means a lot!” said the actress.

Speaking about “Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai”, which featured in the 2014 film “Khoobsurat”, the actress shared that it has always been one of his favourite songs, which also features rapper Badshah.

“This has always been one of my favourite songs from my career—and it still makes it to my dance playlist!” Sonam said.

She added: “I remember letting my hair down and just having the best time shooting the music video. It brings me so much joy to see that the song continues to be a popular party anthem even today.”

Directed by Shashanka Ghosh, the film also stars Fawad Khan, Kirron Kher, Ratna Pathak, and Aamir Raza Hussain. The film is loosely based on the 1980 film of the same name. It follows the tale of a quirky physiotherapist named Milli, who works for a royal family, but their cold demeanour troubles her. Soon, she discovers more about them and falls for the young prince who is engaged to someone else.

Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai is such a mood! 😍 Still plays at every Indian wedding I attend. Sonam looked absolutely stunning in that song - her energy was infectious. More such peppy numbers please from Bollywood!

While the songs are catchy, I wish Sonam would focus more on substantial acting roles. She has so much potential beyond being a fashion icon and dance numbers. Khoobsurat was cute but we know she can do better!

Bhai Salman ka Prem Ratan Dhan Payo was typical Bollywood masala but the songs were bangers! That title track still gives me goosebumps. Sonam-Salman jodi worked surprisingly well. Wish they'd do another film together.

That Khoobsurat remake was actually quite good! Fawad Khan and Sonam had amazing chemistry. The songs, the styling, everything was on point. It's become one of my comfort movies to rewatch on lazy Sundays.

Honestly, both these songs show how Bollywood music has evolved. From the traditional Prem Ratan to the more western Abhi Toh Party - both worked in their own ways. Sonam represents that modern Indian actress who can pull off both vibes effortlessly.
