The makers of Ayushmann Khurrana and Nushrat Bharucha starrer Dream Girl released its special number Dhagala Lagali this afternoon. The song features Riteish Deshmukh as well who joins the star cast for the peppy Marathi number. The song is an upbeat Marathi number which also happens to be a remake of hit Marathi song titled Dhagala Lagali Kala.

The song opens with Riteish telling Ayushmann, "Har Hindi picture ki promotion Punjabi gaane se hi hoti hai, toh iss baar Marathi gaane se kare". The song is going to be the next big Ganpati song and will definitely make you relive the Dhagala Lagali moment.

Ayushmann had earlier shared, “I first heard Dhagala Lagali when I was in high school, and it was quite a rage even in North India. So, I was very excited when we got to know that we are recreating this song in Dream Girl. The song belongs to Maharashtra, but it has a pan-India reach. It was an honour to dance with Riteish, who I call bhau. He has got a great connect with the masses. Typically, my films have only love ballads, but this time around, I feel we have mega chartbusters on hand in the form of Radhe Radhe and Dhagala Lagali.”

Nushrat added, “It’s great to get an opportunity to dance to this song. We were a bunch of people dancing in the rain and going crazy. Riteish is an excellent dancer; his timing, the ease with which he dances and his expressions are unmatchable.”

Riteish who joined the duo for this song said, “Anyone who has lived in Maharashtra has danced to this number. This song can even get a non-dancer to shake a leg when it’s played; that’s the power of this track. This has been one of my all-time favourite dance numbers. Ayushmann and Nushrat bring an amazing energy on the set and are fantastic dancers, and I am glad to be a part of this iconic song with them.”

The song is recreated by Meet Bros and sung by Mika Singh along with Jyotica Tangri. Dream Girl stars Ayushmann and Nushrat in the lead roles. Vijay Raaz, Manjot Singh, Annu Kapoor and Rajesh Sharma will be seen as the supporting cast. The film is directed by Raaj Shandilya, produced by Ekta Kapoor, Shobha Kapoor, and Aashish Singh. Dream Girl is all set to release on September 13, 2019.
