Hotstar Specials latest show Hundred – a masala entertainer about the many misadventures of a dysfunctional duo; starring Lara Dutta, Rinku Rajguru and Karan Wahi was a runaway success. Rap sensations Raftaar and Krsna have come together to launch a new rap song ‘Chaukanna’ featuring Karan Wahi and is inspired by the leading women of the show. Just like the uncanny jodi from the show, Raftaar and Krsna perfectly personify ‘दो खिलाडी. प्रॉब्लम भारी’Chaukanna is a peppy number that perfectly navigates between the 2 contrasting personalities of Saumya (Lara Dutta) narrated by Raftaar and Netra (Rinku Rajguru) rapped by Krsna who bring alive the perspective of character Mad-E (Karan Wahi) from the show. Raftaar and Krsna have collectively brought to life the chaos and madness related with each of the characters and created this foot-tapping masterpiece.

Rapper Raftaar said, “The inspiration for this song came from the dysfunctional jodi of Hundred; Lara and Rinku are so uncanny but yet amazing together. So, when a chance to create something hatke popped up, we got pretty pumped. Chaukanna is a peppy number with an effortless hummable tune. We hope it briings some sunshine in these gloomy times. Working with Krsna and Karan was effortless, and I can't believe we managed to pull this off virtually.” Krsna said, “A crazy tune like Chaukanna beautifully compliments the chaos of the mad-jodi of HUNDRED. Raftaar and I both wanted to champion a character from the show and create a song that everyone would enjoy. When people listen to this song, we want them to get into the vibe of the song and dance their hearts out - that's where the real fun lies!”
