Talking about his performance singer Gitaz Bindrakhia comments, ‘It’s my first time with T-series Mixtape, it is a great feeling.  When I first got a call from T-series, it was an overwhelming feeling and a really good concept to take father’s legacy forward. It’s all about the new vibe in this mix; Abhijit Vaghani has been instrumental in keeping the folk and contemporary moods together.  To recreate such a legendary song is not easy, but T-series has done a fabulous job with it.’

Talking about the trend of recreations, Bindrakhia comments, ‘Nowadays, recreations are a trend and audience has been enjoying it as well. It works really well for me, as my dad had a catalog of old songs that can be recreated for today’s generation. One song I really wanted to recreate from my father’s catalog was ‘Tera Yaar Bolda’ and T-series has made my dream come true. ‘
