Is the trend of B-wood celebs featuring in singles a welcome change?

And finally the era of singles is back with a bang! This year saw the emergence of singles back in the circuit and with full support of B-Townies. Remember, the 90s era that saw the singles in huge numbers with new faces in every song video. In fact, famous bands like Band of Boys, Aryans, Euphoria were the heroes of pop albums and churned out some of the best and memorable numbers in that period. Singers like Shaan, Sonu Nigam, Mohit Chauhan, Adnan Sami, Alisha Chinai also featured in their own albums and released singles every year.

The last decade saw the singles era fading away and we all just kept remembering the good ol days of the 90s of Indie pop. However, seems like the singles are back in the game, this time with the added glam quotient of Bollywood stars. The new mantra seems to be catching on really fast.

A Bollywood star appearing in a singles video only adds to the popularity of the video and in turn helps the star stay in the limelight. But, we are not complaining. In fact, this new trend is only proof of the risks that our current crop of actors are willing to take. This has only unleashed the experimental side of our stars, who are no longer afraid to venture out of their comfort zone and try something new.

Some of the best singles videos that we have come across are ‘Dheere Dheere’ starring Hrithik Roshan and Sonam Kapoor, ‘Chal Wahan Jaate Hain’ featuring Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon, ‘Dillagi’ featuring Vidyut Jammwal and Huma Qureshi, ‘Main Rahoon Ya Na Rahoon’ featuring Emraan Hashmi and Esha Gupta, ‘Befikra’ starring Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani, and even ‘Yahan Hoon Main’, featuring Ayushmann Khurana and Yami Gautam.

With beautiful themes and storyline backing these singles, the presence of the actors in it only helped the singles gain more name and fame. In return, the celebs too received good amount of appreciation for being a part of single video. We are truly enjoying staying in this new era which has openly welcomed Bollywood celebs initiative to be associated with singles.
