‘Akshay Kumar told me Teri Mitti is the greatest song of his career’: B Praak opens up about their friendship

He said in Hindi, “I still remember, everywhere he’d go, he’d promote me. And he did this with all his heart. He told me that ‘Teri Mitti’ is the greatest song of his career, and he’d repeat this in every interview. For me, what could be a bigger compliment?” He continued, “After that, while we were shooting ‘Teri Mitti’ in the studio, I made him listen to ‘Filhall’. He didn’t say anything then, but a month later, he got in touch and said that he wanted to do it. I didn’t know how this would be possible, because ‘Filhall’ wasn’t made for a film, but he said he’d do it as a single.”

Akshay not only starred in the music video for “Filhall,” he also starred in a follow-up, titled “Filhall2 Mohabbat.” Combined, both music videos have earned more than 1.8 billion views on YouTube. B Praak has also performed songs for films such as Bala, Shershaah, Govinda Naam Mera and Akshay’s Bachchhan Paandey.
