Manike, the first song from Ajay Devgn and Sidharth Malhotra’s upcoming film Thank God released on Friday. The song is a remake of the hit Sinhala song originally sung by Yohani, who has lent her voice for the Hindi version as well.

The song’s video opens with Ajay’s Chitragupt telling how lust plagues every man, including Sidharth’s character. He snaps his fingers and magically appears Nora Fatehi, the personification of this lust. Ajay then instructs Sidharth to control his desires.

What follows is Nora seductively dancing to lure Sidharth’s character as Ajay mischievously watches. The two also indulge in acrobatic dance routines.

Manike Mage Hithe is a Sinhala song released in 2020 and sung by Sri Lankan singer Yohani. It became a viral sensation earlier this year. The Hindi version, which includes some of the original Sinhala lyrics, has been written by Rashmi Virag and Dulan ARX. Yohani’s vocals are supported by Jubin Nautiyal and Surya Ragunnathan. Originally composed by Chamath Sangeeth, the Hindi version of the song has been recreated by Tanishk Bagchi.

Thank God also stars Rakul Preet Singh as Sidharth's cop wife. The film sees Sidharth’s character meeting Chitragupt, the Hindu deity, after his death. He is then shown an account of his deeds in his lifetime. 

Thank God, slated for release on October 25, recently run into legal trouble with a case filed against the actors and director Indra Kumar in a Jaunpur court for allegedly hurting the religious sentiments of the Kayastha community.
