A few days after the release of Selfieetrailer, the makers dropped a song from the first song from the film Main Khiladi on Wednesday. The song happens to be a remake of the song Main Khiladi Tu Anari from the 1994 film of the same name that featured Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan. Coming back to Main Khiladi , the song features Akshay Kumar, Emraan Hashmi, Nushrratt Bharuccha and Diana Penty. The highlight of the song is Akshay and Emraan's dance-off.
The song Main Khiladi has been sung by Udit Narayan and Abhijeet Bhattacharya. The original composition is by Anu Malik and the track has been recreated, programmed and arranged by Tanishk Bagchi. The original lyrics are by Maya Govind.
