Tabaahi song without video
The intense romantic number is sung and composed by Vishal Mishra. Raj Shekhar has penned the lyrics. Kumar Gaurav Singh, Trihangku Lahkar, Bitupon Boruah and Kandarpa Kalita are credited as the music assistants on the track. The song talks about a passionate and untethered romance that wants to break free from all the constraints imposed by society.
Fans react
Reacting to the song, many fans wondered why the makers only released the audio track. One said, “Jabardast chunaa lagaya (Made us fools).” Another user asked, “They put an audio track without lyrics? Why?” A comment read, “Disappointed. We were waiting to see the video of the song, wanted to see some glimpse of the romance, I guess we will have to wait till the release.”
Meanwhile, many fans also loved the track and wrote in the comments. “On repeat mode, wow, Vishal killed it again,” said one. “I love this song already. Can’t wait to see Tabaahi in theatres,” wrote a second fan. “Yash and Kiara Advani have cooked! I am so hyped for this,” said another. “10% lyrics… 90% is literally #Tabaahi. The song and BGM is actually a banger, except the fact that there should have been a video song to complement it… its a slow poison for sure. @VishalMMishra you have cooked man, thanks a lot,” said a fan.
