Just a few weeks ago, the trailer of the movie Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari had premiered on YouTube. For fans who watched the trailer, Manoj Bajpayee's weird yet funny avatar and acting in the song would definitely make sense. Manoj plays the role of  Detective Mangal in the movie who spies on boys and their behaviour to report back to families who might see the boy as a potential groom. In this song, fans see Detective Mangal dressed up to make sure his identity is hidden, while he clicks pictures of grooms doing shady activities. He later shows these pictures to families who hired him.

The song's name is Basanti and it has very entertaining lyrics where the lead sings about her 'Veeru' being in trouble, thus referencing Sholay. More entertaining than Karishma Tanna's dance moves is Manoj Bajpayee's acting. He is seen dancing with Karishma in a funny attire and also seen clicking pictures of grooms.

The only saving grace is Karishma Tanna's energetic dancing and Manoj Bajpayee's funny acting and dance. The review for this song stands at 2.5 out of 5 stars.
