Mumbai, Nov 13 (NationPress) The talented singer Armaan Malik has unveiled his newest single, “Aakhri Salaam,” from the highly anticipated film “De De Pyaar 2.”
He emphasized that this track is centered more on reflection rather than pain. Discussing the song, Armaan expressed, “Aakhri Salaam has a very different emotional core. It isn’t just about love; it’s about closure, acceptance, and the quiet dignity of letting go.”
“The song feels like a conversation with oneself, where the heart finally learns to make peace with what it has lost. When I performed Chale Aana in the original De De Pyaar De, it was about longing and the ache of separation. Aakhri Salaam carries that same vulnerability but with a deeper sense of maturity. It’s less about pain and more about reflection. I believe that’s what makes it special — it feels personal, yet extremely universal,” he further added.
Following the success of “Chale Aana” in “De De Pyaar De,” Armaan Malik has returned to the franchise with another emotionally resonant piece titled “Aakhri Salaam.” Featured in De De Pyaar De 2, the song explores a deeper and more mature depiction of love, acceptance, and closure.
The upcoming comedy “De De Pyaar De 2”, directed by Anshul Sharma, showcases stars like R. Madhavan, Rakul Preet Singh, Meezaan Jafri, and Javed Jaffrey. The film is set to release in theatres on November 14.
Recently, Madhavan reminisced about his collaboration with Ajay Devgn in the film, stating that working alongside the ‘Singham’ star was both inspiring and creatively rewarding. In his own words, the ‘Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein’ actor mentioned he felt genuinely valued and respected throughout the filming process.
R Madhavan remarked, “On set, like Ajay sir, I don’t compete. The whole idea is to do the best we can for the sake of the character and the film. I’ve learnt from Ajay sir that when the story works, the film works, everything works for everybody. But if I am only worried about what I am doing, and getting insecure about it, then it's the wrong approach towards a film.”
