The release of the dance anthem “Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke” from the upcoming pan-India film KD: The Devil has ignited a massive firestorm online. Featuring Nora Fatehi and veteran actor Sanjay Dutt, the track was intended to be a high-energy promotional highlight but has instead been met with intense criticism for its explicit lyrical content and heavy reliance on crude double entendres.
Armaan Malik Slams “New Low” in Music
The controversy gained significant momentum after popular singer Armaan Malik expressed his shock on X. Malik, known for his clean image and soulful tracks, revealed he had to listen to the song twice to believe what he was hearing.
“This showed up on my timeline and I had to replay it just to make sure I heard it right. Sad to see commercial songwriting hit a new low,” Malik posted. He later added, “I am genuinely at a loss for words. Wish I could unhear it.”
While Nora Fatehi’s dance prowess is rarely questioned, the focus quickly shifted to the lyrics penned by Raqeeb Alam. The opening verses use graphic double meanings that appear to describe sexual acts, only to later reveal they are referring to a drink bottle—a trope many users have labeled as “cheap” and “distasteful.”
Social media platforms have been flooded with negative reactions, with some users comparing the track unfavorably to regional cinema.
YouTube Feedback: “Even Bhojpuri songs have more class than this,” one top comment read.
Censor Board Scrutiny: Thousands of users have tagged the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), questioning how such “openly obscene” content was approved for a mainstream audience in 2026.
Director Prem and Sanjay Dutt Under Fire
The backlash hasn’t been limited to the music. Many fans expressed disappointment at seeing Sanjay Dutt associated with the track, especially following his recent run of more grounded roles.
Director Prem, often called the “Showman” of the Kannada film industry, has also faced heat. Local fans in Karnataka have been particularly vocal, with some trending hashtags to “disown” the creative direction of the film. Critics argue that the “crass” modern lyrics feel entirely out of place for a period drama set in the 1970s Bangalore underworld. To know such latest latest
