"Who isn't a fan of 'The Rajinikanth'? I had met Honey Singh and Bhushan Kumar five days back and he made me hear the song, which is titled 'Thalaivar Tribute (Lungi Dance)'. "I found it very apt for Rajini sir and wanted to be a part of it as a fan of one of the greatest actors we have."
King Khan also agreed to be a part of the dedication because its theme is very close to Chennai Express. Composed, written and sung by Honey Singh, the song was choreographed by veteran choreographer Chinni Prakash.
