Dunki Song O Maahi Is The Perfect Romantic Track, But We’re Not Feeling SRK’s Taapsee Pannu’s Chemistry
Can Arijit Singh ever go wrong?

After the trailer created a lot of buzz around Rajkumar Hirani’s upcoming film Dunki starring Shah Rukh Khan and Taapsee Pannu in lead roles, the first song from the film was also released. The song titled O Maahi is Dunki’s drop 5 and stars the lead pair. It is a romantic track made with the collaboration of some of the best in the industry. O Maahi is sung by Arjit Singh, conpised by Pritam and the lyrics are penned by Irshad Kamil. The song is soothing to the ears, however, we are not really feeling the chemistry between SRK and Taapsee. Here’s the whole video.
The first song from Rajkumar Hirani’s Dunki shows the journey of SRK and Taapsee through the deserts. The song has beautiful and meaningful lyrics in which the male character explains the importance of the woman in his life, and expresses his love for her. While the lyrics are nice, Arijit Singh’s voice and Pritam’s music is just the right combination to make this a hit track. The visuals also look stunning, and a slow-burn romance is shown between the lead characters.
Love, ishq, mohabbat, pyaar…yeh sabka izhaar karne mein hum waqt laga dete hain. Sometimes we don’t get the chance. Sometimes we don’t find the words. This song is dedicated to all the lovers who feel like this…So say it Now…Today…Tomorrow, and Everyday…” Mere Ishq pe Haq… pic.twitter.com/8LQz12kTNv

Two aspects of the song O Maahi that bothered me was Shah Rukh Khan’s look in the first half. The de-ageing looks questionable and the chemistry between him and Taapsee also looks underwhelming. However, hoping to see more of it in the film.
