Karan Johar’s Kal Ho Naa Ho remake has German Ambassador to India, Michael Steiner in Shah Rukh Khan's place, while his wife Eliese was seen in Preity Zinta place, and interestingly Saif Ali Khan role was taken by former foreign minister of India Salman Khurshid.
The 2003 romantic drama hit film’s song was chosen to express the Germany’s love on bollywood. Mr Steiner’s lip-syncing and his wife Eliese’s extraordinary duet with Salman Khurshid was awesome. Actor Shah Rukh Khan has loved the video, and said, “@karanjohar: @iamsrk you have to see this!!! https://youtu.be/0XK3BVXbVsU #KalHoNaaHo #eternalsong” Drat! They remade it already! Awesome job."
The original score was written by Javed Akhtar and sung by Sonu Nigam is an evergreen romantical and musical hit.
Michael Steiner and Eliese Steiner, under the direction of Sumit Osmand Shaw, have paid homage to the Indian film. In German “LEBE JETZT” means what the wonderful song “KAL HO NAA HO” asks to do Live right now to the fullest!
