“I came across the Dharavi boys while researching for the soundtrack. While David has done the Tamil rap, Yogesh and Siddesh have provided the additional vocals. Abhishek has done the cough beatboxing. We used a lot of dhol and tasha sounds to give the song a rasta (street) feel,” Royal told a leading daily.
