S(h)a(hi)dly, this track wasn’t sensA(kri)tional

Iski Uski, from 2 States, was four minutes and 14 seconds long.

The track, which was composed by Shankar Mahadevan, Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa, failed to impress even their most ardent fans.

It was penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya, who interspersed the Punjabi words with a fair sprinkling of English ones.

But none of that linguistic gimmickry could save the track, whose recall value was low vis-à-vis that of the other tracks in the film.

However, it wouldn’t be incorrect to say that Shahid Mallya and Aakriti Kakar did a fine job of salvaging it.
