Earlier this year, Nora Fatehi described her version of
Dilbar as "unique and different" and told news agency IANS: "Doing a remake of an iconic song is always nerve racking because you never know if you can actually do justice to it. Sushmita Sen was iconic in the song and I hope I match up to her."
On Wednesday afternoon,
John Abraham shared the news about the song on social media and wrote: "The ravishing new track from
Satyameva Jayateis out now."
Take a look at John Abraham's tweet here:
