Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Animal track Satranga Re shows dark sides of love
Actor Ranbir Kapoor’s upcoming gangster thriller film ‘Animal’ has released its new track ‘Sataranga Re’. An ode to a powerful heartfelt but tragic romance, the track sung by Arijit Singh explores the darker side of love, showcasing an emotionally hard-hitting narrative that explores the baggage that comes with love. This baggage includes things such as post-marital problems, heartbreak, helplessness, the inability to explain oneself and much more. Arijit Singh, as usual, delivers a beautifully passion-driven performance where he brings to life the emotions and the theme of the track. Harmonious, positive and yet melancholic, ‘‘Satrang Re’ is entirely romantic and in fact to some level resonates a vibe of regret, longing, strong love while completely discarding the gangster elements from its sound.
