Not only is Subhash Nagre back, and angrier than ever, but as a special treat for movie lovers who have waited eight long years for Sarkar 3, the film features a song sung by none other than Bachchan himself.

Amitabh Bachchan has sung a mellifluous and soulfully striking Ganapati aarti for Sarkar 3, which is composed by Rohan Vinayak. The poignant Ganapati aarti has been shot on the locales of a Mumbai beach, featuring a larger than life Ganesh idol, and the grandiose holy process of immersion-Visarjan.

Talking about the song, Amitabh Bachchan says, “There is something about the Ganesha aarti that invokes great divinity, an emotion that is rare and lasting. Sant Ramdas created this aarti in the 1600s in a Rag Jogiya that was befitting of such a great character and eminence. The words are vernacular Marathi - a rarity for most other Hindu bhajans and devotional songs. Yet the way the aarti has been structured, it cuts across all language barriers, if at all there are any. I feel privileged and blessed.”
