Chandegarh by A S Bagad, Krishan Rana

There is an honesty to Chandegarh that separates it from most Haryanvi songs released around the same time. Max Studio has a history of strong work, and the music on Chandegarh is among the most memorable of it.

The performance by A S Bagad, Krishan Rana is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. The connection between a talented ensemble cast and this song is part of what makes it resonate beyond the film itself.

In 2020, Haryanvi produced many songs, but Chandegarh was one of the handful that genuinely cut through. The emotional register of Chandegarh is wide enough to fit celebration and solitude equally well.

At 5:20, the track does not overstay its welcome — it says what it needs to say and leaves the listener wanting more. Years from now, Chandegarh will still be the track that plays at the right moment and lands exactly as it did the first time.
