The emotional core of ‘Gustaakh Ishq’ is amplified with the release of its third song, ‘Shehar Tere.’ This new track beautifully articulates the profound emotions of longing and yearning for a loved one, set against a backdrop that reflects the ebb and flow of seasons and sentiment.
Vijay Varma and Fatima Sana Shaikh deliver a compelling performance in ‘Shehar Tere,’ their undeniable chemistry serving as a powerful vehicle for the song’s narrative. The presence of esteemed actors Naseeruddin Shah and Sharib Hashmi adds gravitas and a memorable dynamic to the on-screen experience.
This musical collaboration unites the vocal prowess of Vishal Bhardwaj, Jazim Sharma, and Himani Kapoor, accompanied by the soul-stirring and evocative lyrics crafted by the legendary Gulzar, making ‘Shehar Tere’ a standout track.
‘Gustaakh Ishq’ marks a significant directorial and production debut for Manish Malhotra, under his banner Stage5 Production, with Dinesh Malhotra. Helmed by director Vibhu Puri, the film promises a compelling portrayal of a passionate love story, exploring themes of unexpressed desire within the rich historical tapestry of Purani Dilli and the melancholic charm of Punjab’s ancestral homes.
The film’s earlier teaser hinted at a period romance, focusing on the burgeoning love between Varma and Shaikh’s characters, with Naseeruddin Shah making a memorable appearance that hints at deeper layers to the plot.
Expressing his excitement, Vijay Varma described ‘Gustaakh Ishq’ as a “simple, lovely, beautiful, and rich love story.” Following the release of ‘Ul Jalool Ishq’ and ‘Aap Is Dhoop,’ ‘Shehar Tere’ is the latest addition to the film’s soundtrack, building anticipation for its release on November 21, 2025.
