Two years ago, Nora Fatehi captivated audiences with her electrifying performance in the song “Manike,” featured in the film “Thank God” starring Ajay Devgn and Sidharth Malhotra.
This track, a Hindi adaptation of the popular Sri Lankan hit “Manik Mage Hithe” by Yohan, marked a memorable debut collaboration between Fatehi and Malhotra.
