Singer Sonu Nigam has responded to lyricist Javed Akhtar’s criticism of remaking old Border songs for Border 2, saying some compositions cannot be separated from the films they were created for. But if Border is a soldier, Sandese Aate Hain is his uniform. We can’t imagine Border without the song,” Nigam said. On Friday, Sonu Nigam shared a video message on Instagram, dedicating Border 2 to the nation and recalling his long association with the franchise. Nigam, who originally sang Sandese Aate Hain in J.P. Dutta’s 1997 film Border, has re-recorded the song for the sequel under a new title, Ghar Kab Aaoge.
