Alia Bhatt starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi is a biographical crime drama produced and directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali with Jayantilal Gada also serving as the producer. The film is an adaptation of one of the chapters of Hussain Zaidi’s book Mafia Queens of Mumbai. As sensational as the film’s trailer has been, the songs have mesmerized us even more.
The first song of the film Dholida has made the whole of India dance to the tunes of garba. While we match our steps to the song, the makers of the film have released the most special track from the film today, Jab Saiyaan. Known for her unpredictable nuances and incredible life journey, Gangubai always managed to surprise everyone. Touching upon one such element, Sanjay Leela Bhansali has created this beautiful composition with the voice of lovely Shreya Ghoshal and lyrics penned by AM Turaz.
Along with this melodious ballad, Sanjay Leela Bhansali also introduces Shantanu Maheshwari to portray one of the key characters in the film. Jab Saiyaan will remind you of your first love and it showcases a stirring narrative between Alia and him.

Singer Shreya Ghoshal who consider this as one of her favourites from the film says, ” Jab Saiyaan is one of the most different compositions by Sir. It’s always a learning experience for me every time I work with him. 20 years of my musical career and I have to thank him for believing in me and giving me my debut. He’s a magician who truly understands the art of filmmaking and music. I am so happy that I am a part of his Gangubai Kathiawadi journey as well. Jab Saiyaan is definitely a song that will make everyone fall in love once again!”
