Tara Sutaria and Sidharth Malhotra are all set to share screen space once again. This time, it will be for a music video and not just any other song - Masakali 2.0. On Tuesday, Tara shared the teaser on her Instagram profile and she wrote: "Back with my Raghu (the name of Sidharth's character in Marjaavaan). The music video, will release on April 8. And is a remake of the popular 2009 track Masakali from Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's film Delhi 6.
Composed by AR Rahman, sung by Mohit Chauhan, the song featured Sonam Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan and Masakali (a pigeon). Sachet Tandon and Tulsi Kumar have provided vocals to Masakali 2.0. Tanishk Bagchi has penned some additional lyrics for the song. In the rehashed version, female vocals are added.
While the original had a certain old-world charm about it, the remake has a contemporary touch to it. Unlike the original, it has been shot in a room and is all about Sidharth and Tara's chemistry.
Sharing the song's poster on Instagram, Tara Sutaria wrote: "This lockdown, let love take over your feed and playlist! Masakali 2 releasing on April."
