Pratik Gandhi and Yami Gautam’s Friday release Dhoom Dhaam had lyricist Siddhant Kaushal pair up with Shor Police duo Clinton Cerejo and Bianca to present a soundtrack featuring an assorted bunch of numbers. “We worked with [producer] Aditya Dhar to understand where the film is based and the kind of characters presented in it. The film revolves around a Punjabi girl and a Gujarati boy. Understanding their cultural backgrounds was helpful because we could create a mix of Punjabi and Hindi lyrics for the songs that were used across the film. For instance, in the recently released song, How are you, we used the line ‘gidda te garba kar di’, referring to the dances from both cultures,” says the writer, who penned all six tracks in the album.
