"Masakali" is a Hindi song from the 2009 Bollywood film Delhi-6. It was composed by A. R. Rahman, sung by Mohit Chauhan and lyrics penned by Prasoon Joshi. The song was released as part of the soundtrack album of the film on 14 January 2009 at the Indian Idol 4 competition. This song is remade as "Masakali 2.0" sung by Sachet Tandon and Tulsi Kumar from the film Marjaavaan.
The song was released as part of the soundtrack album of the film on 14 January 2009 at the Indian Idol 4 competition.[1] The first video of the song "Masakali" was released featuring Sonam Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan with a pigeon. However, the song was not part of the original film. According to the director, "The song was not really meant to be part of the narrative. I mean, who would think of putting in a song about a dove in a film like Delhi-6? It just happened. When I came to the pre-climax portion of my script, I was stuck. I needed a continuity link taking the narrative to its finale".[2][3]
