Pop remakes of old hindi songs

We know that Bollywood music directors have adapted Western scores or pop songs and brought out pretty good songs in Hindi. Have you heard of Bollywood hits being turned into English?
Here are three songs that a British pop group "Ivy York" released in an album called "The Call of Spring" available on itunes, spotify, etc
The title song is an adaptation of O P Nayyar's Pukaarta Chala Hoon Mein" from the 1965 film Mere Sanam.
