Rapper Raftaar said, “The inspiration for this song came from the dysfunctional jodi of Hundred; Lara and Rinku are so uncanny but yet amazing together. So, when a chance to create something hatke popped up, we got pretty pumped. Chaukanna is a peppy number with an effortless hummable tune. We hope it brings some sunshine in these gloomy times. Working with Krsna and Karan was effortless, and I can't believe we managed to pull this off virtually.”
Krsna said, “A crazy tune like Chaukanna beautifully compliments the chaos of the mad-jodi of Hundred. Raftaar and I both wanted to champion a character from the show and create a song that everyone would enjoy. When people listen to this song, we want them to get into the vibe of the song and dance their hearts out - that's where the real fun lies!”
