'Prithviraj': First song from Akshay Kumar, Manushi Chhillar starrer evokes patriotism

Bollywood star Akshay Kumar has released the first track from his upcoming film, 'Prithviraj'. The song is titled 'Hari Har'.

Speaking about the song, Akshay said, “According to me, ‘Hari Har’ is the soul of the film and salutes the daredevil spirit of Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan who sacrificed everything to protect his motherland from the merciless invader, Mohammad of Ghor. ‘Hari Har’ is brimming with the mighty king’s resolve to protect India which is why I connect so deeply with the song. It captures the essence of Samrat Prithviraj’s life and represents his strong value system that made him the fearless king that he became. ‘Hari Har’ is a song that I fell in love with right from the first music listening exercise. Even today, I listen to it very frequently because it is one of the most patriotic songs that I have heard in my entire acting career.”

The song has been sung by Adarsh Shinde and the lyrics have been penned by Varun Grover. The film’s music has been composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy.

Helmed by Chandraprakash Dwivedi, 'Prithviraj' is a historical drama that revolves around the life of the warrior king Prithviraj Chauhan.

Akshay Kumar essays the role of Prithviraj Chauhan, while Manushi Chhillar will be making her Bollywood debut with this film. The film will be released in three languages (Hindi, Tamil and Telugu). The release date of the film is June 3.
