Suraiyya - Thugs Of Hindostan by Ajay, Atul, Vishal Dadlani, Shreya Ghoshal, Amitabh Bhattacharya

Suraiyya - Thugs Of Hindostan is one of those rare Hindi tracks that manages to feel both fresh and familiar the moment it begins. The production by Ajay, Atul is understated in the best way — supportive without overshadowing the vocal.

The performance by Ajay, Atul, Vishal Dadlani, Shreya Ghoshal, Amitabh Bhattacharya is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Katrina Kaif are at the heart of Thugs Of Hindostan, and Suraiyya - Thugs Of Hindostan captures their dynamic at its most compelling.
