Mumbai, Apr 28 (IBNS): Tu Tu Hai Wahi, a song which was enacted by Bollywood veteran Rishi Kapoor in film Yeh Vaada Raha, has been played by the Chinese to welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is on a two-day trip to China.

Modi was seen listening to the music of the song with Chinese President Xi Jinping by his side.

A delighted Kapoor took to Twitter to thank the song's composer R.D. Burman, who is also known as Pancham.

In a tweet, the actor said: "Tu Tu Hai Wahi (Original Version) Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhosle | Yeh Vaada... https://youtu.be/hjfzFVw2Zjo  via @YouTube. The Chinese played our song to welcome PM Modi along PM Xi in Wuhan. Honored. Thank you Pancham!"

Yeh Vaada Raha, which was released in 1982, starred Rishi Kapoor, Poonam Dhillon and Tina Munim in the lead roles.

Modi will conclude his China trip on Saturday.
