‘Kabir Singh’ song ‘Bekhayali’: Shahid Kapoor as the jilted loveboy looks ready to destroy himself

‘Kabir Singh’, starring Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani, is one of the most anticipated movies to be releasing in the month of June. The film is looking promising right from the time the teaser of the film came out. However, the trailer was a slight let down. Even then, the film is garnering immense buzz on social media. The makers have now released the first song from the film, ‘Bekhayali’.

Sung by Sachet Tandon on Sachet-Parampara’s composition and Irshad Kamil’s lyrics, the song depicts a lovelorn Shahid Kapoor who has just had a break up with Kiara Advani. While she is set to be getting hitched to someone else, the jilted loverboy is immersing himself in drinking and smoking, trying to forget the days gone by. Check out the mellifluous track, ‘Bekhayali’ right here:

‘Kabir Singh’ is the remake of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s hit Telugu film ‘Arjun Reddy’ (2017) that starred Vijay Deverakonda and Shalini Pandey. The Hindi remake has been adapted keeping a pan Indian audience in mind.

Kabir (Shahid) has anger management issues that worsen when his ex-lover Preethi (Kiara) gets married to someone else. The film chronicles the self-destructive path which Kabir embarks upon.

While the lead actors are convincingly looking the part that they are playing, the trailer somewhat failed to evoke the feeling of sympathy or love for them. Perhaps the film might succeed in doing that. The film is set to hit theatres on June 21. The film will have tough competition at the ticket windows from Dhanush’s international film ‘The Extraordinary Journey Of The Fakir’ which also releases on the same day.
