A | Responding to an extraordinary wave of public demand, the makers of Dhurandhar, Saregama, Jio Studios and B62 Studios — released the much-awaited track “Ishq Jalakar – Karvaan” earlier than planned. The move follows the explosive success of the film’s trailer, which amassed over 50 million views on YouTube within days of its release on November 18.
The haunting qawwali snippet featured in the trailer instantly captured the internet’s attention. Viewers across platforms began clipping and resharing the music, making fan edits, and repeatedly urging the makers to release the full version. As social media filled with reels and tributes, the demand became impossible to ignore — leading the team to bring the track forward.
The updated version, which was written by Shashwat Sachdev and Roshan Lal, pays tribute to the essence of Roshan Lal's timeless masterpiece, which is still a major component of Saregama's historical music collection. With the powerful voices of Shashwat Sachdev, Shahzad Ali, Subhadeep Das Chowdhury, and Armaan Khan, the new arrangement combines modern intensity with classic soul. The song's lyrics, written by contemporary author Irshad Kamil and the renowned Sahir Ludhianvi, have a strong emotional impact.
The mounting anticipation around Dhurandhar, coupled with the internet’s affection for Ranveer Singh’s commanding presence in the trailer, further pushed the song into viral territory. Fans praised Shashwat Sachdev’s bold reinterpretation, hailing it as a cultural moment even before its official launch.
Director Aditya Dhar expressed gratitude and surprise at the response, saying, “What began as a simple sneak peek turned into a wave of unstoppable excitement. We hadn’t planned to release Ishq Jalakar – Karvaan so soon, but the explosive reaction left us no choice. Shashwat has brilliantly reimagined the classic, and we’re thrilled audiences can finally experience the soul of Dhurandhar.”
Produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar, Dhurandhar releases worldwide on December 5. The music video for Ishq Jalakar – Karvaan is now live on the Saregama Music YouTube channel, with the audio available across all major streaming platforms.
