Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan's upcoming drama 'Udta Teer' has kicked off its musical campaign with the release of the first song, 'Bhootni Ka', a quirky, high-energy track that sets an unpredictable tone for the film ahead of its theatrical release on 9 October 2026. The song follows a gripping trailer that had already sparked considerable buzz around the project.

The Creative Team Behind 'Bhootni Ka'

The track is composed by the celebrated duo Sachin-Jigar, with lyrics crafted by Amitabh Bhattacharya. The song features vocals by Kaka, Twinkle Agrrwal, and Bhattacharya himself — a trio that brings an eclectic energy to the number. The involvement of Bhattacharya both as lyricist and vocalist adds a distinctive creative layer rarely seen in mainstream Bollywood releases.

What the Composers Said

Sachin-Jigar opened up about the creative process behind the number, acknowledging that the quirky tone came with its own set of challenges. 'Bhootni Ka' was genuinely a lot of fun to compose because Amitabh Bhai had written the lyrics in a way that kept you guessing about what was coming next. The challenge was to make the music support that confusion and still keep the song catchy. We kept playing with the pace, the sounds and the arrangement so that the song always feels like it is about to take another turn. That made the process really exciting. It's a fun song, but getting the balance right was not as easy as it sounds,' the duo said.

Singers on the Recording Experience

Singer Kaka admitted the track's energy left him deeply curious about the film's story, even after completing his recording. In his words: 'Lyrics sunke mujhe story jaanne ki bohot curiosity hui. Main soch raha tha ki itna energetic gaana hai, thoda funny hai, aur itna different sound kar raha hai, toh film mein exactly chal kya raha hai? Recording ke time bhi mere mind mein yehi thought tha ki iske peeche koi interesting story zaroor hogi. Ab teaser dekhne ke baad toh curiosity aur badh gayi hai, because characters aur situations ko dekhke aur bhi questions aa rahe hain. Yaar, mujhe toh bata dete script kya hai! Gaana bhi record kar liya, teaser bhi dekh liya, but story jaanne ki excitement abhi bhi bani hui hai. Ab bas film dekhne ka wait hai.'

Singer Twinkle Agrrwal echoed the enthusiasm, noting that the song's dense, energetic lyrics kept the recording session lively. 'You have to keep the energy going while making sure every word lands. Kaka brought such a fun energy to it, and I really enjoyed matching that. It is the kind of song that puts you in a good mood while you are singing it,' she said.

'Udta Teer' Release and Expectations

Directed under the banner of a production that has kept most plot details tightly under wraps, 'Udta Teer' is set for a wide theatrical release on 9 October 2026. With Khurrana's track record of genre-bending entertainers and Khan's growing presence in mainstream cinema, the film arrives with sizeable audience anticipation. The unconventional tone of 'Bhootni Ka' suggests the makers are leaning into a distinct, offbeat sensibility — a deliberate contrast to conventional Bollywood drama.
