Avengers: Endgame will now have AR Rahman’s Midas touch to it. The Academy Award-winning musician has composed a Marvel Anthem for Indian fans. The Hindi track was launched on Monday by Avengers: Endgame co-director Joe Russo, who is currently in India to promote the biggest superhero film to date.

The Marvel Anthem’s Tamil and Telugu version will be out soon.

The hook-line of the song – “Roke Na Rukenge Ab Toh Yaara” – has been fused well with the pledge of the surviving superheroes to avenge their fallen comrades.
