The song Gold Tamba from Batti Gul Meter Chalu features Shahid Kapoor’s character asking Shraddha Kapoor some highly pertinent questions. He wonders why she would choose copper instead of gold, or Samba instead of Gabbar in the age of anti-heroes.
Composed by Anu Malik and written by Siddharth-Garima, Gold Tamba features vocals by Nakash Aziz. The actors are dancing to moves choreographed by Ganesh Acharya.
Directed by Shree Narayan Singh, Batti Gul Meter Chalu centres on a lawyer (Shahid Kapoor) who takes on a corrupt electricity company that overcharges people for its services. The cast includes Divyendu Sharma and Yami Gautam. The screenplay is based on Rustom (2016) writer Vipul Rawal’s story Roshni.
Batti Gul Meter Chalu will be released on September 21.
