Bipasha Basu started her career with a full-blown musical hit. Raaz had nothing much to offer except the songs by Nadeem Shravan, all so exasperatingly similar in sound it is hard to pick out one. She had far better songs to lip sync on screen in Jism including the magical Jadoo Hai Nasha Hai composed by the Baahubali-RRR composer MM Keeravani.
But it was Vishal Bhardwaj’s Omkara which brought Bipasha everlasting musical fame. The ‘item song’ as the abhorrent description of special songs goes, Beedi Jalai Le Jigar Se Piya sung by Sunidhi Chauhan and Namak Ishq Ka rendered by Rekha Bhardwaj placed Bipasha in the hall of fame.
