Composed by the duo Sachin-Jigar, Dil Thaam Ke lyrics are penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya, with vocals by Rashmeet Kaur and Rana Majumdar.

Speaking about the song, Huma, in a press note, shared, "Having multiple films and shoots going on simultaneously, this was the cherry on the cake for me. Dancing is something I love so when Jayu spoke to me about it, it was a definitive yes. I thoroughly enjoyed performing on Dil Thaam Ke and audiences are going to see me in a super massy avatar. On the last day of shoot things spilled over .. and I ended up shooting for over 16 hours but it was totally worth it!! Working with my dear friend Raj is always an incredible experience and I can't wait for audiences to see this one."

Maalik marks Rajkummar Rao's first foray into the action genre, and the intensity of his portrayal is unlike anything audiences have seen before.

Earlier, the actor expressed his excitement about taking on the role, revealing how different the experience was from his past roles.

"I am very excited about it. It was challenging. It was very, very different for me, the whole experience of playing Maalik and shooting for the film. This is the first time I am venturing into an action genre, and it's raw in nature. Every beat of the character, of the script--everything about the film--feels so different from anything I have done before. I hope this project becomes a milestone in my career," said Rao.

Directed by Pulkit and produced by Kumar Taurani under the Tips Films banner along with Jay Shewakramani of Northern Lights Films, Maalik is slated to release in cinemas on July 11, 2025.

Huma Qureshi is such an underrated performer! Loved her energy in the song teaser. After Monica O My Darling, she's proving she can do massy roles too. The 16-hour shoot shows her dedication 👏 Can't wait to see her chemistry with Rajkummar again!

Sachin-Jigar's music is always fire 🔥 The song has that perfect mix of folk and modern beats. But honestly, I'm more excited to see Rajkummar in an action role finally! He's been doing intense dramas for too long.

Watched the song 3 times already! Rashmeet Kaur's voice adds such a fresh flavor. Though I wish they'd shown more of the choreography - Huma's dance moves in Gangs of Wasseypur were iconic. Hope this becomes the next wedding sangeet hit!

Not impressed with the lyrics tbh. Amitabh Bhattacharya has written much better before (remember "Zinda" from Bhaag Milkha Bhaag?). The tune is catchy but lyrics seem repetitive. Still, full marks to Huma for her screen presence!

July 2025 release? That's too far yaar! 😫 The industry needs to stop announcing films so early. By the time it releases, we'll have forgotten about this song. But best wishes to the team - Rajkummar never disappoints.

Love seeing Huma in these vibrant outfits! Finally Bollywood giving curvy women the glamorous roles they deserve. The song has that perfect desi tadka with modern styling. My girl gang is already planning to recreate this for our next reunion 💃
