Veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar has reunited with Shah Rukh Khan, and his magical lyrics have given a soul to the actor's upcoming film, Dunki. Javed has penned the lyrics of Nikle The Kabhi Hum Ghar Se, and he agreed to write the song after being requested by the director Rajkumar Hirani.
Just like the movie's premise, the inception of this song was also interestingly unique. While sharing a behind-the-scene story, Javed said, "In this film, I have only one song and Interestingly, Raju Hirani played a pivotal role in ensuring that we included this song, and he specifically requested me to write it. I hope you will enjoy the song, as it is unique due to its distinct situation. Typically, I write the lyrics after the tune is composed, but Pritam generously suggested that I write the song first, and he would compose the music accordingly, and he did a fantastic and brilliant job with it."
