The lyrics of the Hindi rap song Udta Teer, written and performed by Muhfaad, have resurfaced online as two major Bollywood films with similar titles prepare for release. The song, originally released on 23 September 2019, is not part of the soundtrack for the upcoming film Haiwaan. A separate spy comedy also titled Udta Teer, starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan, is set to hit theatres on 9 October 2026.
The song Udta Teer is a hard-hitting rap track that runs for 3 minutes and 21 seconds. It was released under the album also titled Udta Teer. The lyrics, written by Muhfaad, feature aggressive wordplay and confrontational themes directed at rivals in the music industry.
About the Artist
Muhfaad is a New Delhi-based rapper known for tracks such as Tempo, Pehli Fursat Me Nikal, and Saare Karo Dab with Raftaar. Udta Teer is among his notable releases from the late 2010s. The song has been described as a display of lyrical prowess and is often cited as one of his strongest solo tracks.
The Lyrics
The opening lines of the song set a combative tone. Muhfaad raps:
‘Likhta hu Kaise mal Sochte ye by god Shayad mill mere Khoon me Hal Syaahi Bhoot Ye Murde kya Chheenenge Zindagi meri Mal to stage pe Marunga beta shahi Maut!’
The chorus repeats a challenge to listeners:
‘Gaana ye jab bhi bajega, bajega na Koi bhi isse bachega na Maine phenka ye udta teer hai Bol tu lega kya, lega kya?’
Later verses continue with direct attacks on unnamed opponents. The lyrics include lines such as ‘Inhe kya hi sunau abe bhai chhod Meri galiyan mehangi inke kaano ki aukat nahi’ and ‘Main lyrically pyscho Kaise dun main ye mic chhod’.
