It’s finally here for all of us to see and to judge: the new Mehbooba song from Ramgopal Varma's Sholay remake, now titled Ramgopal Varma Ki Aag.

The song has been filmed on Urmila Matondkar and although it does have a brand new set of lyrics, it does borrow its beats from the original R D Burman song.

The difference between Helen's dancing in the original Sholay and Urmila's performance in the new version is that Helen is actually dancing, she's got grace in her movements and the emphasis is not so much on her body as it is on her dancing.

The Urmila number, while it is shot beautifully, is still not magnificent dancing and the emphasis is clearly on the fact that she's looking hot in that itty-bitty costume.

Compare the new Urmila version of Mehbooba and the original song in the voice of R D Burman himself, and featuring the original dancing queen, Helen.

It must be said though that Urmila Matondkar looks very delicious in the Mehbooba song from Ramgopal Varma Ki Aag, which also features Amitabh Bachchan, who plays Babban Singh.

Then there is Himesh Reshammiya's version of Mehbooba, which is featured in his own film, Aap Kaa Suroor. This one's a duet between Himesh and Asha Bhonsle, and it's been filmed on Mallika Sherawat.

As far as I'm concerned, old is gold. Nobody shakes a leg quite like Helen does. You take your pick, tell us which of the three Mehbooba versions you like best.
