Bollywood perfectionist Aamir knows the pulse and what a way to pay tribute to our dear Bharat urf Manoj Kumar – the undisputed desh bhakth from Bollywood. In his forthcoming satire ‘Peepli Live’ Aamir has made it clear that the song ‘Mehngai Dayain’ sung by the talented actor singer Raghuveer Yadav will be used only for the film.
“We will not lend the song to anyone for political use. This song is part of the story of the film and it will not be used in any kind of political campaign”, Aamir told reporters yesterday at the music launch of the film yesterday.

The members of some opposition parties had approached the filmmaker to buy the rights of the song to use it as a tool against the government, given the recent flare up in prices of essential commodities.
“We have made the film for audience. This song is part of the story of the film. The movie is about urban and rural divide that exists in India and inflation is a general issue”, Aamir said.
‘Peepli Live’ is a satire on farmers’ suicides and subsequent media and political response.
