Dhurandhar The Revenge title track

On Thursday, T-Series released the title track of Dhurandhar 2, Aari Aari. The song shows Ranveer Singh in full beast mode, taking down enemies with power and rage. The video also shows Ranveer replacing Akshaye Khanna as Lyari’s Badshah, Sher-e-Baloch, with people celebrating his rise to power. Not only that, but the song also offers glimpses of the intense face-off between Arjun Rampal and Ranveer, something fans have been eagerly awaiting.

The revived version of Aari Aari from Bombay Rockers has been composed, arranged and programmed by Shashwat Sachdev. The track blends contemporary production with Punjabi influences. It features vocals by Navtej Singh Rehal (Bombay Rockers), Khan Saab, Jasmine Sandlas and Sudhir Yaduvanshi, while the rap portions are performed and written by Rebel and Token. The lyrics are penned by Irshad Kamil along with Bombay Rockers, and the score is produced by Adam Lucas.

Fans reacted enthusiastically to the music video, calling the song an absolute banger and praising Rebel’s rap portion. One fan commented, “Rebel deserves as much hype as Hanumankind. She's fire.” Another wrote, “Shashwat Sachdev is becoming one of my favs quickly... Damn this is good.” A third commented, “Not that the hype wasn’t already insane but Holy f**k. Proper Banger. 18th can’t come soon enough.” Another fan wrote, “Absolute banger, Sachdev has turned fun song into battle music!”

Another comment read, “Man! Such impressive teamwork — so many artists, so many layers to the song, yet it still feels very cohesive! Shashwat is a legend.”
