Mumbai, May 14 (IANS) Actors Neil Nitin Mukesh, Boman Irani, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Anusha Mani joined forces with veteran singer Nitin Mukesh for a memorable rendition of the iconic song “Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan” from the 1970 classic Mera Naam Joker.

Neil shared the magical moment on Instagram, posting a captivating video of the ensemble performing the timeless “Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan” alongside Nitin Mukesh, the son of the legendary singer Mukesh, who originally lent his soulful voice to the iconic track.

For the caption, Neil wrote: “What an amazing evening it was celebrating the grand release of our web Show “Hai Junoon” with loved ones And what made it even more memorable was the honor and love shown by the entire team, especially my producers, Aditya Bhat, @sagar_cinemakid , and @jiohotstar @jio_creative_labs.

“Papa @nitinmukesh9 cannot thank you enough for you just being you. So selfless, so strong and so pure. This occasion would be incomplete without your presence. You made it shine. JEENA YAHAN MARNA YAHAN ISKE SIVA JANA KAHAN @boman_irani @jacquelienefernandez @anushamani.”
