A day before all the Dhinchak Pooja videos were taken off YouTube due to alleged copyright infringement issues, Sonu Nigam posted a video on Facebook of him adding some sur to Dhinchak Pooja’s Dilon Ka Shooter a la Kumar Sanu style.
“Despite Nevaan against the idea, I just can’t resist sharing this. :D this has been going through my head the entire night in Calgary. I have to express it out now that I’m in London. :D Giving a little tune to Dilon ka shooter…. Kumar Sanu da style..”, Sonu wrote alongside the video.

Dhinchak Pooja became popular on the Internet after her songs like 'Swag Wali Topi', 'Selfie Maine Le Li Aaj' went viral for not exactly the right reasons. Foraying into cringe-worthy pop, Pooja made sure all her songs were tone-deaf and off-note.
Some Indian media reports say that the reason appears to be a copyright claim by someone named Kathappa Singh, which is again causing laughter because of the similarity to a character in an Indian blockbuster movie.
Others say it is because the Delhi police were investigating her latest video Dilon ka Shooter (Shooter of hearts) because it featured her riding on a bike without a helmet.
However, the fact that this is the only video still up on her channel seems to throw cold water over that theory.
