Mere Rashke Qamar Song Arijit Singh

MP3 AND LYRICS

The song was recreated by lyricist Manoj Muntashir and composer Tanishk Bagchi for Milan Luthria's 2017 Hindi film Baadshaho; written by Rajat Arora and starring Ajay Devgn and Ileana D'Cruz. It features original version of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's voice with new version of Rahat Fateh Ali Khan's voice. The music video has been shot in different locales of Bikaner, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer.

Despite other controversies; created after 2016 Uri attack, due to which Pakistani artistes were banned from working in India, producer Bhushan Kumar said that he was working for last one-and-a-half year on the track "that brings out the chemistry between Ajay and Ileana's characters". He said, "I was sure it had to be Nusrat saab's composition. I procured the rights and I'm thankful to Rahat for singing it", he feels happy with the response on the new version.
