Kiara Advani sang Emraan Hashmi’s Arabic song years before Raghav Juyal’s fanboy moment

Raghav Juyal’s recent tribute to Emraan Hashmi on Aryan Khan’s directorial debut show, The Ba**ds of Bollywood*, is currently winning the internet. The Netflix series, a satirical action-comedy, stars Lakshya, Bobby Deol, Sahher Bambba, and Raghav, with the latter impressing audiences with a special nod to Emraan Hashmi. In one scene that quickly went viral, Raghav, playing Parvaiz, serenaded Emraan with the iconic track Kaho Na Kaho from the 2004 film Murder. The clip gained widespread attention, even catching the eye of SRK’s daughter Suhana Khan, who reshared it online.

However, many may not know that Kiara Advani performed the same song years earlier. After the release of her 2019 film Kabir Singh, Kiara appeared on anchor Nitin Kakkar’s show. In one segment, wearing headphones, she attempted the Arabic lyrics of Kaho Na Kaho. While the performance was lighthearted and humorous, fans enjoyed seeing Kiara take on the challenge. Nitin shared the clip on Instagram, writing, “The awesome @kiaraaliaadvani giving some tuff competition to @raghavjuyal broooo… Who did it better 😂. From one of our superb interviews with #kiaraadvani 😀 what fun it was 😂.”

The clip sparked discussion online. Reddit and social media users flooded the comment sections, with one writing, “This might be my new favourite video on the internet 😂🤣,” while another recalled her Raatan Lambiyaan cover. Fans compared her performance with Raghav’s, with playful comments highlighting the different styles each brought to the song.

While Raghav continues to receive praise for his performance in Aryan Khan’s show, Kiara Advani is currently focused on her personal life. In July 2025, she and husband Sidharth Malhotra welcomed their daughter. Audiences are eagerly waiting for her return to films, anticipating her next big-screen project.

Though Raghav’s tribute recently went viral, Kiara’s earlier attempt reminds fans that the iconic Kaho Na Kaho has inspired many across Bollywood. Both performances continue to entertain viewers, showing how the song transcends generations and actors.
