Actor Huma Qureshi is starring in a song titled Dil Thaam Ke in Rajkummar Rao’s upcoming film Maalik. In an interview with India Today, she confirmed that she did not charge a fee to perform in the song as she didn’t want to charge money from friends.

Huma said in the interview that she fell ‘in love’ with the song the moment producer Jay Shewakramani (whom she called Jayu) played it for her. She also stated that shooting for Maalik felt like ‘a bunch of friends coming together,’ so she had to say yes.
Confirming that she didn’t charge a single rupee for the track, Huma said, “Doston se kaise paise le sakte hai (How can one borrow money from friends?) It was just two days of shooting, so I felt it really wasn’t necessary to take money.”
However, one particular day on set turned into a 16-hour schedule, she recollected, due to a complicated shot that was ‘no one’s fault’. “I don’t believe in walking away, saying my shift is over. My conditioning is such that if I’m at work, I’ll finish my job and then leave. So yes, it went on for 16 hours, but it wasn’t planned. It was just one of those intense days on set,” she said.
