Tanishk Bagchi's discography is brimming with the word 'remade'. The king of remixes has had an earful from angry industry folk criticising the trend of reviving old chart-busters, but Bagchi has over and over, successfully delivered. Yet, he frowns on the title given to him when he says, "Last year, my original songs like Makhna [Drive] and Ve mahi [Kesari] took over the charts. People still don't know I've created [them]. So, more than the recreations, my originals [are performing well]. This year too, I have a lot of work in the pipeline."

Several big-budget ventures in 2020 have Bagchi appointed on their team of musicians. "I have a few fresh songs and recreation in [Akshay Kumar's] Sooryavanshi; [Varun Dhawan's] Coolie No 1 has an amazing original track, and there are a [few tracks] in Dostana too." However, Bagchi is currently enjoying the attention being given to the remake of the iconic Muqabla, for Street Dancer 3D. "Since the original was [AR] Rahman sir's song, it's not one [I could] remix. I had to give it a dimension while keeping the song's essence intact. Most of the [elements] have been retained; there's a Latin percussion, and some rhythms [added] to it."
