There were big plans a while back by the makers of Sidharth Malhotra and Tara Sutaria's Marjavaan wanting to remake Sonam Kapoor's famous "Masakali" number for their film. However, plans changed and the revamp of A.R. Rahman's Delhi-6 number will now release as an independent music video and has been titled as "Masakali 2.0". The teaser for the song has been dropped and we see Sidharth in his Marjavaan look with a bandana over his head, while Tara seems to be all glammed up.

Watch The Teaser Below:
"Masakali 2.0" also gives us major "Humma Humma" feels from Aditya Roy Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor's OK Jaanu and also reminds us of Rimmi Sen and Abhishek Bachchan in Dhoom's "Shikdum" song in which both the couples are seen romancing each other while prancing all over their house and room.
In an earlier interview, T-Series head honcho Bhushan Kumar had said, "The song is still a rage among youngsters, so I thought it might be a good idea to present it in a new fashion. We got Sidharth and Tara for the song as they look good together on screen and they infused life into the chartbuster." Sidharth too was quoted as saying, "“Masakali 2.0” will be relevant due to the ongoing crisis in the country and in other regions of the world. He was quoted as saying, “We have unintentionally made a song revolving around two people cooped up indoors and still doing a lot of masti.” Sidharth Malhotra in Hindi Remake of Thadam!
