The makers of upcoming Salman Khan-starrer recently dropped another song from the film. Titled ‘Aithey Aa’, the song is a shaadi song (wedding song) featuring both Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif.
The video of the song begins with Salman Khan’s voiceover as he takes us back to 1983 - the year that India had won the world cup. Katrina Kaif’s groovy moves and her cascading curls easily take away the spotlight. The song is fun and slightly slower than other Bollywood shaadi songs but definitely a unique track.
Listen to it here:
‘Aithey Aa’ has been sung by Vishal Dadlani,Shekhar Ravjiani, Akasa Singh, Neeti Mohan, and Kamaal Khan. The lyrics have been penned by Irshad Kamil. Salman and Katrina’s moves have been choreographed by Vaibhavi Merchant.
Earlier Salman Khan had shared a poster for the song. “Shaadi waala Desi gaana for this electronic zamana” is how the Dabangg actor described the song.
Bharat is a remake of award-winning South Korean film Ode to My Father, which is one of the country’s highest-grossing films. The movie spans several decades and traces the history of India through Salman Khan's character. Salman dons various avatars through the film, including that of a stuntman, miner and naval officer, and Katrina and Disha play his love interests.
Bharat has been directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and also stars Tabu, Jackie Shroff and Sunil Grover. The film hits theatres on 5 June.
