Phillauri song Dum Dum: Anushka Sharma & Diljit Dosanjh’s romantic Sufi track will leave you mesmerized

It took 2 months to create the Sufi number Dum Dum, reveals Phillauri director Anshai Lal.

After a quirky and rib-tickling trailer, the makers of ‘Phillauri’ have released the film’s first song titled Dum Dum. This song featuring Anushka Sharma and Diljit Dosanjh is the first romantic Sufi track of the year and you’ll be truly mesmerized after watching it. It takes forward the love tale of Shashi (Anushka) and Phillauri (Diljit). This Sufi number will win your hearts and take you to that old era where the lead character’s story is set in. We already got an idea of it when we watched the film’s trailer in which the opening scene shows the lead actress in the friendly ghost avatar followed by flashback story.

Dum Dum is written by Anvita Dutt and composed by Shashwat Sachdev. Sung by Romi and Vivek Hariharan, this Sufi love song will touch your soul. Speaking about Anushka and Diljit, they have come together for the first time and their chemistry is magical. Anshai Lal, director of ‘Phillauri’ revealed to TOI that it took two months for them to create this Sufi number. About the song he was quoted saying, “Dum Dum takes forward the love tale of the characters played by Anushka Sharma and Diljit Dosanjh. It perfectly encapsulates the romance of the old era their story is set in.”

The curiosity level to watch and listen to the Sufi song Dum Dum was high since yesterday when Anushka Sharma took to Twitter to share the teaser of it.

With regards to the locations where it was shot Anshai Lal said, “We shot at real locations, and even recreated Phillaur (a town in Punjab’s Jalandhar district) in Dangarh, near Barnala. We also opted for live recording to lend an organic feel.” This first track from the album ‘Phillauri’ is truly soulful. We just can’t wait for the other songs from the album to be released.
