Vicky Kaushal’s Sam Bahadur will hit teatres on December 1.
Vicky Kaushal’s Sam Bahadur and his troop are marching to move mountains in the newly released song Badhte Chalo.
Vicky Kaushal’s Sam Bahadur and his troop are marching to move mountains in the newly released song Badhte Chalo. Dropped last week, the patriotic number from the upcoming biographical war film stands out for its reverence for India.
Now, a video of Vicky singing along the track and dancing with the students of a Jaipur college is going viral on the internet. As part of Sam Bahadur promotions, Vicky was recently in Jaipur, where he took to stage with a bunch of students and sang Badhte Chalo. He also shook a leg to the song with the students. He looked dapper in a white shirt, blue denims and off-white blazer. Check out the video here:
There are vivid types of patriotic tracks that win over audiences, be it about mourning sacrifices or penning romantic paeans to one’s motherland. But Badhte Chalo is one that revels in jingoistic chest-thumping beats, that is sure to remind of Vicky Kaushal’s Main Lad Jana from Uri: The Surgical Strike. Though high on tempo, Badhte Chalo captivates viewers with its simplistic approach.
Badhte Chalo celebrates the true spirit of patriotism- which details placing one’s motherland before anything, even oneself. Composers Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy rightly exudes unconditional love for India and in the visuals, Vicky Kaushal goes out of his way, risking his life, and comes up with ace tactics to eradicate enemies. What steals the limelight is the homage paid to the strengths of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Goddess Chamunda, God Hanuman, and many others in the lyrics. From training boot camps to dangerous combats, the music video serves as a great background to the rendition.
Directed by Meghna Gulzar, the movie journeys the life of India’s first field marshal, Sam Manekshaw aka ‘Sam Bahadur’ to the jawans he led.
