The first song from Alia Bhatt's much awaited film Raazi is finally here and it is just SPECTACULAR! The song perfectly showcases Alia Bhatt's journey from an ordinary girl to an extraordinary spy. It shows how Sehmat sacrifices her safety for her country and overcomes all hurdles that come her way to protect her nation. This is the first time Arijit Singh has sung a patriotic number. He has felt each and every word like he means it and we don't think anyone else apart from him could have sung this so as beautifully as Arijit.

The posters and trailer of Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal's Raazi have already gotten fans pretty excited. Alia plays an Indian spy in the film who gets married to a Pakistani major. The makers have released the first song from the movie and Arijit Singh's first patriotic number, Ae Watan. Alia had already given us a glimpse of the song at an event and we loved it. Now that the song is finally out, we can't stop listening to it on a loop. It's definitely one of the best songs this year and Arijit is like a magician who will make you listen to it throughout the day.

Check out the video of Ae Watan from Raazi right here:

At the song launch, Alia was asked about how she prepped for the role of a spy. To which she said, "I had to memorize codes but I don't know how much of it is shown. All the technical ones. Eventually I was happy that I learnt it because I was always in character. Learnt how to ride a jonga (check spelling. It's a truck of some sort) I have also learnt Urdu, to get the diction right. I watched Kabhie Kabhie, Silsila and all." We are looking forward to Alia and Vicky's chemistry in the film as they are starring opposite each other for the first time. The film is set to release on May 11, 2018.
