Ishq Bukhaar from Tehran Turns Up the Heat Ahead of the Film’s Premiere on ZEE5

Zee Music Company has just dropped the fiery new track “Ishq Bukhaar” from the much-anticipated action thriller Tehran, and it’s already setting screens ablaze. With Shreya Ghoshal and B Praak lending their powerful vocals, and Tanishk Bagchi composing to lyrics penned by the ever-poetic Irshad Kamil, the song is a certified fever dream of rhythm, passion, and cinematic flair.

At the heart of the track is the magnetic Elnaaz Norouzi, who commands the screen with high-energy dance moves and undeniable screen presence. Dressed to dazzle, she lights up the floor in what could easily be one of this year’s standout item numbers. The song blends Punjabi intensity with modern electro-pop beats, offering both groove and drama — a perfect match for Tehran’s explosive themes.

Set to premiere on ZEE5 on August 14, 2025, Tehran stars John Abraham, Neeru Bajwa, and Manushi Chhillar, and is directed by Arun Gopalan. The film is said to be inspired by real-life events linked to the 2012 Delhi bombing and follows a gripping espionage mission that takes the protagonist deep into hostile territory. Produced by Dinesh Vijan, Shobhna Yadav, and Sandeep Leyzell, the film promises high stakes and edge-of-your-seat action.

“Ishq Bukhaar” plays an important role in building anticipation for the release, contrasting the film’s darker political themes with a dose of cinematic glamour. It’s a strategy that has long worked in Bollywood’s favour — and this time, it hits just the right note.

With an all-star cast, a plot rooted in real history, and a music video that sizzles, Tehran is poised to be a major Independence Day weekend watch. And Ishq Bukhaar? Let’s just say the fever’s contagious.
