Crooned by Raghav Chaitanya, the music has a melancholic-longing mood throughout.

Clocking in at two-minutes and twenty-seconds, the music video shows the emotions the character of Taapsee, who is a housewife, goes after her enraged husband slaps her on the face.

Music by Anurag Saikia, the video also has scenes where she reminisces the beautiful moments shared by the couple and how a slap shattered their seemingly perfect life.

Actor Pavail Gulati essays the role of Taapsee's husband in the movie.

Earlier towards the end of January, the makers of the movie had dropped a captivating trailer that raised powerful questions about domestic violence.



It questioned subjects like reasons for domestic violence against women, tolerance of abuse in romantic relationships and gender dynamics in relationships.

Coming from the makers of cinematic marvels like 'Article 15' and 'Mulk', the film features Ratna Pathak Shah, Manav Kaul, Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi, and Ram Kapoor in pivotal roles.

The film will hit the theatres on February 28 this year.
