"De Ghumaa Ke" literally means "Swing It Hard". The song's lyrics were written by Manoj Yadav. "We were looking at various ideas to determine what direction we can take because we wanted to make a fun song, a
dhamaal song on which people can dance, they can sing and we wanted to use more of a colloquial term, which was an idea that came in late. Initially, we were looking at a regular dance song and by chance we coined this phrase
De Ghuma Ke. Everyone got excited and said why not make a song around the phrase," said Shankar. The song uses Hindi
colloquialisms like
aare paare ("this way or that") and
juta hausla badla faisla ("buck up and change the game"), and has a rousing quality. It incorporates an array of
Indian rhythms, as well as elements of rock and hip-hop. The song, according to the
composers, avoids both the cliches of patriotism and run-of-the-mill
Bollywood beats for a "fun and funky tune" with a "folksy feel and a hint of rustic Punjabi". Each member has brought in the song his own unique talent and experience, combining the
Carnatic and
Hindustani vocal tradition, Western
rock, fusion and
synthesiser techniques. ==Reception==
