In a bid to urge citizens to vote in the ongoing general election, Shah Rukh Khan released the song, Karo Matdan, yesterday. The Tanishk Bagchi composition sees the superstar put his rapping skills to the test. Sharing the video on Twitter yesterday, Khan wrote that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had requested him to use his flair for creativity while asking his fans to use their voting power wisely.
Talking to mid-day, Bagchi reveals that Khan had discussed the idea of the song last year when they were collaborating on Zero (2018). While the composer had all but forgotten about the track in the months that followed, a call from the superstar a fortnight ago put things into overdrive. "Shah Rukh sir called me a few weeks ago and asked me to compose music for the voting song. He wanted to try his hand at rapping. He didn't do any prior rehearsals; he simply came to the studio two weeks ago and recorded the song in one hour," says the music director.
