Urmila Matondkar's Blackmail song was deferred to make way for Irrfan's song

Irrfan Khan

Says a source, "Abhinay Deo [director] and Bhushan Kumar [producer] changed their plans to accommodate Irrfan's song. Since Badla is Irrfan's favourite song, they wanted to launch it before he left for London for his medical treatment."

Confirming the news, Deo says, "It was a unanimous decision to unveil Badla first." The song, which sees Urmila Matondkar on screen after seven years, features the actor dancing in a bar while Irrfan Khan's character opens up to his friend about his cheating wife. "While the screenplay initially did not have a song, we thought it'd be interesting to have a song narrate the irony of the character. Bewafa Beauty takes the story forward."
