The remix features Indian singer Guru Randhawa, a major artist in the Indian music industry. However, his involvement quickly became a topic of controversy online due to past criticism surrounding one of his own music videos.

Guru Randhawa previously faced backlash over the music video for his song “Azul.” At the time, many viewers accused the video of hyper-sexualizing schoolgirls and criticized what they viewed as an inappropriate dynamic between a photographer character and a student character featured in the storyline.

As news of the collaboration spread, some fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their disappointment and frustration.

Many questioned why LE SSERAFIM’s agency would choose to work with an artist who had previously been involved in such a controversy.

Others also criticized Guru Randhawa for allegedly limiting comments on his social media accounts rather than publicly addressing the backlash.

While some fans have called for greater scrutiny over the partnership, neither HYBE nor Source Music has publicly addressed the criticism surrounding the remix so far.

The “BOOMPALA” remix featuring Guru Randhawa has since been released, though debate over the collaboration continues among fans online.
