Alia Rocks the ‘Udta Punjab’ Song Launch by Humming ‘Ikk Kudi’

Alia Bhatt sings Diljit Dosanjh’s ‘Ikk Kudi’ at the ‘Udta Punjab’ song launch event. You don’t wanna miss this.

Alia Bhatt’s new look in Udta Punjab’s Ikk Kudi number

The cast and crew of Udta Punjab released Ikk Kudi, the second song from the upcoming film’s soundtrack. In contrast to the peppy Chitta Ve, this soft and melodious number is a dreamy Punjabi love song, picturised on Alia Bhatt and Diljit Dosanjh. It was exciting to hear Alia sing a few lines from the song. 

In the video itself she’s seen playing hockey with a bunch of girls. We have to say, she’s good behind the mic as she is on camera. 

The song was released at an event organised at Fun Republic in Mumbai. Most of the film’s cast and crew attended, though Shahid Kapoor was missing in action. Diljit Dosanjh joined in via video conference. Not only is he playing the part of a police officer in the film, but he’s also the voice of the romantic number Ikk Kudi.

The lyrics of Ikk Kudi have been penned by late Shiv Kumar Batalvi, and Amit Trivedi is the maestro behind its composition.

Here’s what Alia Bhatt tweeted just before the launch event, teasing her fans with a curious message in Punjabi. 

Diljit’s mesmerising voice and Alia’s fantastic performance is not to be missed. The film releases on June 17th, 2016.
