Sidharth and Tara have now shared the teaser of the song on their social media handles. “Stay indoors and enjoy some fun moments with your loved ones! Here’s sharing the teaser of #Masakali 2.0,” wrote Sidharth in a Twitter post.

In a interview with Mumbai Mirror, Tara said that the song is “catchy” despite “being a midtempo tune.” Her co-star Sidharth Malhotra added that the creative team’s decision to shoot indoors is relevant during the lockdown.

“The song was unintentionally made about two people who are indoors and having fun.”
