Post the release of Street Dancer 3D, composer Harsh Upadhyay has become one of the most sought-after composers in Bollywood. His recreation of the song Suno Gaur Se Dhuniyo Walo crooned by Shankar Mahadevan and Udit Narayan has been a chart buster and was also performed by Varun Dhawan at the Wagah Border last month.

Talking about composing music pieces for the film like AR Rahman’s Muqabla, Illegal Weapon 2.0 and Dua Karo, the musician said, “Every music piece in the film is a battle that is fought between two teams trying to prove their mettle as a dancer. So, I understood the emotions behind each of these battles and as they run high. It was a little challenging,” he revealed. Harsh said that he also has a south film in the offing. “It is Tamil-Telugu bilingual and an official announcement will be made soon. I look up to Anirudh Ravichander as he explores a variety of music down south.”
“When I sat down for a narration with Remo D Souza, who narrated me the situation, I ensured that the song evoked patriotism. We all know how electrifying the atmosphere in Wagah is during flag lowering ceremony every day. So, recreating Suno Gaur Se was a huge responsibility and I am glad that I pulled it off. Moreover, working with Shankar sir and Udit sir is a blessing. We all grew up listening to Suno Gaur Se, as kids which motivated us,” said Harsh to DT Next.
