The title song of a Punjabi film that became the most-viewed song video in India by December 2019 and the first music video to pass a billion views there. It remains the most-viewed video on the T-Series Apna Punjab channel. The record's entry for a scale of audience that Anglophone charts kept missing.
The billion came from a regional-language film song on a label sub-channel, not from a global pop release, which is the part most Western coverage left out.
Heard from a car with the windows down outside a Punjabi restaurant in Southall, and then again from inside it, two verses behind.
It is a film title track, not a standalone single. The song and the film share a name and the song outran the film almost immediately.
What does it mean? Write it the way you would say it out loud.
