Most of us who have heard Ishq Mitaye by the
late Amar Singh Chamkila know it as a classic. But now AR Rahman and Mohit
Chauhan have added their own twist to the song as a teaser for Imtiaz Ali’s
upcoming biopic, Amar Singh Chamkila . The newer version has a modern and
traditional approach that somehow brings out the essence of the original while
maintaining a different vibe.
AR Rahman took to X to post a snippet of the song
where he wrote, “Mere agge duniya ka rang saara fikka, Apne lahu se hi
lagaaya maine tikka..MAIN HOON PANJAB !”
The movie, which is scheduled to drop on April 12,
on Netflix, features Diljit Dosanjh, Parineeti Chopra in the lead and dives
into the untold story of the late Punjabi singer.
