“Makhmali has to rank as one of the most soulful romantic tracks of my career!” raves Akshay Kumar on the romantic track from Prithviraj, sung by Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal.

He adds, “The song is filmed on the mesmerizingly beautiful and pure love story between Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan and his beloved Princess Sanyogita. Theirs was a relationship of equals. They were forward thinking and they worked hard to tell people that men and women are equals and that gender parity was necessary for the betterment of society. I love the song and it’s been on loop on my phone. I hope everyone loves Makhmali too.”
