The song has been picturised on the film’s principal cast: Shahid Kapoor, Kangana Ranaut and Saif Ali Khan. It would be safe to say that this is Kangana and Shahid’s most bold roles till date.

Shot aesthetically, Rangoon captures love like it is, without worrying about what Indian censors will have to say. You see Kangana and Shahid making love without inhibition, you find them in throes of passion knowing that they should not go ahead with their romance but it is bigger than both of them. Caught in the middle is Saif who is in love with Kangana but unable to stop her budding romance with Shahid.

As the dulcet tones of Arijit Singh bring to life Gulzar’s words, let the song wash over you but don’t miss the brilliance of camera either. From the shot of Shahid and Kangana sprawled on rocks to the virgin beauty of North-East, the film manages to bring both the film’s period setting and romance to you. There are two particular scenes from the song which will stay with you — one where Kangana is lighting a candle and the other where Shahid touching her scar while she sleeps.
