The Simmba version of Aankh Maare has been sung by Mika Singh and Neha Kakkar, while the lyrics is by Shabbir Ahmed. The song has been recreated by Tanishk Bagchi.
The video shows Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan in all black, and the energy of the two is something to talk about. To add masala, the Golmaal team of Shreyas Talpade, Tusshar Kapoor and Kunal Kemmu do the hook step from the film int he song.
There is more surprise. Arshad Warsi appears in the song lip-syncing to Kumar Sanu voice and dancing to the beat.

Taking to social media, Ranveer Singh posted on Twitter: “Old-skool jam <-> Nu-skool cred!!! #AankhMarey”
In Simmba, Ranveer Singh will be seen essaying the role of a rowdy cop, Sangram Bhalerao, while Sara Ali Khan plays his love interest.
Simmba is a masala entertainer and is a remake of 2015 Telugu hit, Temper.
Simmba marks the maiden collaboration of Rohit Shetty and Ranveer Singh on the silver screen. The film is produced under the banner of Karan Johar’s home production Dharma Productions and is slated to hit the theatres on December 28, 2018.
Lalit Modi says he had never met Ranveer Singh before receiving a call saying the actor wanted to see him. Singh then travelled to London and the two met at Modi's residence to discuss the biopic.
FWICE, which represents around 30 lakh cine workers, had sent Ranveer three meeting invitations before issuing the directive. The actor's team received no advance and claims the film lacked a locked script even years after development began.
He spent 17 years building the system. Now he's asking a court to dismantle part of it. The man who once ran Bollywood's most powerful bodies has turned around, and filed a petition against one of them.
