The makers of the film, ‘Sherdil The Pilibhit Saga’ have released their first song, and it is also the first song of KK released after his death last week in Kolkata. The song, Dhoop Paani Bahne De, is written by Gulzar and has been composed by Shantanu Moitra.
In the video song, Pankaj is seen travelling through the forest. The video also features Neeraj Kabi and Sayani Gupta. In the clip, Pankaj and Neeraj share a meal amid the greenery. KK’s line goes, “In har ek pedho ki, daaliyaan kat gayi. Kuch pooja mein, kuch shaadiyon mein jal gayi, kat gayi.”
Directed by Srijit Mukherji, Sherdil: The Pilibhit Saga features Pankaj Tripathi, Neeraj Kabi and Sayani Gupta in lead roles. The film is inspired by true events, and focusses on the negative effects of modernisation and man-animal conflict. It is set to hit theatres on June 24.
