Humma Humma from Mani Ratnam’s 1998 blockbuster Bombay, is considered Rahman’s initial claim to fame in the Indian cinema before he made it big at the international scene. Sonali Bendre featured in the original song along with Remo Fernandes back then.
The Humma song was later recreated by Badshah and Tanishk Bagchi for Ok Jaanu featuring Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur.

Meanwhile, it’s been a tough time for Sonali and her family. The actor revealed in the year 2018 that she was diagnosed with metastasized cancer. She was being treated for the same in New York. Earlier, in an interview with News18, she credited her husband, producer Goldie Behl, for her better health. She said it was her husband who took her to New York for the treatment despite her resistance. Sonali said, “I land in New York and the next day, we go to the doctor. He looks at everything and we had sent all our tests and he says, you know, it is the fourth stage and you have a 30% chance of survival.”
She added, “That really hit me; I just turned to Goldie and I remember saying: ‘Thank God, you got me here’. Goldie always says that ‘tomorrow I’d rather feel I over-reacted, over-spent than under-reacted and have that regret that I should have done that’. There was no time for it and we were not told that it was the fourth stage but Goldie had started reading about it and he was suspecting it.”
