The latest song 'Dekhte Dekhte', from Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor starrer, 'Batti Gul Meter Chalu' has become the most viewed Hindi song on YouTube. With over 20 milliion views in just 24 hours, the romantic song has been trending on Youtube on #4.

The song is a modern take on Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's composition. After the first quirky track 'Gold Tamba', this is a slow number sung by Atif Aslam.

Directed by Shree Narayan Singh, 'Batti Gul Meter Chalu' revolves around the problem of electricity theft in a small town of Uttarakhand. Shahid and Shraddha first take a light-hearted dig at the issue of frequent power cuts, but things turn serious when their friend, played by Divyendu Sharma, commits suicide after being harassed to pay a hefty amount as his electricity bill.

The movie will hit the big screens on September 21.
