Much-awaited 'Bajirao Mastani' victory song 'Malhari' launched

After 'Gajanana', 'Deewani Mastani' and 'Pinga', the fourth song 'Malhari' from the Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnum opus 'Bajirao Mastani' has been launched.

The main lead of the film, Ranveer Singh, who was in Bhopal to launch the much-awaited victory song as the region is of great significance to the warrior's story, was thronged by fans as he arrived in the city.

The makers thought Bhopal to be the ideal place to launch this track as Bajirao won one of his biggest wars here. The Battle of Bhopal is one of the biggest battles of the 18th century, which resulted in Maratha victory, mainly through the swift tactics of Maratha Peshwa Bajirao.

Dressed in blue dhoti pant, printed shirt and blue jacket, Ranveer performed to 'Malhari' amidst crazy fans cheering for him at the venue.

The song, which is shot on an extensive scale, is sung by Vishal Dadlani and choreographed by Ganesh Acharya and signifies victory and celebration. In the period drama, the 'Malhari' track comes after a crucial victory that Bajirao and his soldiers celebrate.

Earlier, an excited Ranveer had took to social media to share a teaser of the song, writing, "So I'm in Bhopal readying 2 rage at the #MalhariLaunch ..Meanwhile y'all good folks can nibble on this little teaser!"

Apart from Ranveer, 'Bajirao Mastani,' which is slated to be released on December 18, also stars Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone.
