Dilawe Me Dhans Gailu by Khesari Lal Yadav, Priyanka Singh

There are singers who perform songs and singers who live inside them. On Dilawe Me Dhans Gailu, Khesari Lal Yadav, Priyanka Singh clearly belongs in the second group. Featuring Khesari Lal Yadav, Akshra Singh, the song carries the weight of the film's emotional arc and delivers it with conviction.

The 2016 release gave fans something to hold onto — a track built for repeated listening rather than a single play. There is no right time to listen to Dilawe Me Dhans Gailu. There is only the moment you press play and realise it was the right choice.
