The makers of Thappad dropped the film's first song Ek Tukda Dhoop, which was also in the background score of the trailer in bits, on Wednesday. Thappad is based on a life-turning incident of a strong-willed homemaker played by Taapsee Pannu, whose life changes after an insulting incident involving her husband at a party. The song Ek Tukda Dhoop is a very emotional track, which portrays the feelings of Taapsee Pannu, who decides to split with her husband, played by Pavail Gulati. The song Ek Tukda Dhoop shows the humiliating incident that the lead role goes through and the struggles she has as she files a legal case against her husband. It also gives us glimpses of their happy-married life before the incident.
The song Ek Tukda Dhoop is sung by Raghav Chaitanya. The song has been composed by Anurag Saikia and written by Shakeel Azmi. Check out the new song Ek Tukda Dhoop:
While sharing the song on Instagram, Taapsee Pannu revealed, "This is the song I used to set my mood before performing most of the critical scenes of the film," as she shared the news of song release on her Instagram. She also wrote, "It really took my heart away."
