Bombay Vikings

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bombay Vikings were formed in 1994 in Stockholm, Sweden. The Bombay Vikings consist of musicians Mats Nordenborg, Neeraj Shridhar and Oscar Soderberg . The band was born out of a common interest – a love for Indian melodies - be they in Hindi films or Classical Music.

In India Bombay Vikings shot to fame with the song Kya Soorat Hai a couple of years ago. An impressive remix of the original Zaroorat Hai, the new version topped the charts, thanks to some innovative Hinglish lyrics, a cool video and some impressive singing. A year later, Woh Chali followed — and became a huge hit and stayed on top for a remarkable number of weeks, though the song was much slower compared to Kya Soorat Hai. But Jambola made up for the loss and a surprise third hit from the album was Angel Eyes.

Bombay Vikings is a reputed name in Indian pop with significant number of music albums, most of which are remix of the old Indian melodies.
