New Delhi, June 15, 2026: The official countdown to Bollywood’s wildest treasure hunt has officially begun, and it is kicking off with a massive musical bang. Following a spectacular trailer launch on June 12, 2026, the makers of Dhamaal 4 have dropped their first major track, titled ‘Chatni’ (officially Phulauri Bina Chatni Kaise Bani). Fronted by Bollywood superstar Ajay Devgn alongside a powerhouse ensemble cast, the vibrant track is a high-octane reimagining of a beloved regional folk favorite, engineered specifically to be the ultimate party anthem of the year.
Directed by franchise veteran Indra Kumar, the film is gearing up for a worldwide theatrical release next month on July 10, 2026. With ‘Chatni’ dominating social media trends within hours of its release, the promotional campaign for the fourth installment of this iconic comedy franchise has shifted into overdrive.
A Folk Classic Reborn for a Modern Dance Floor
The song ‘Chatni’ taps directly into India’s rich cultural roots by reviving the evergreen folk melody of Phulauri Bina Chatni Kaise Bani. The production team has smartly balanced traditional rhythms with high-energy modern beats, creating a crossover appeal that resonates with both rural and urban audiences.
The musical masterminds behind the track have meticulously woven together distinct artistic styles:
- The Vocal Powerhouses: The track is voiced by prominent folk-pop sensation Neelkamal Singh alongside Bollywood’s definitive item-number specialist, Mamta Sharma (famed for Munni Badnaam Hui). Their contrasting yet complementary vocals give the song its sharp, playful edge.
- The Production Team: Composed jointly by Neelkamal Singh and veteran music producer Aditya Dev, the music features slick electronic arrangements superimposed over raw dhol beats. The catchy, foot-tapping lyrics have been penned by Dheeraj Babuaan.
Star-Studded Madness and Ravi Kishan’s Swag
Visually, the music video is an absolute riot of colors, perfectly reflecting the chaotic energy of the Dhamaal universe. While Ajay Devgn brings his trademark cool-guy intensity and swagger to the screen, the true highlight of the music video is arguably Bhojpuri superstar and actor Ravi Kishan. Kishan, who joins the franchise as a major new addition, infuses the video with unparalleled energy, delivering perfectly timed comedic expressions and local flair.
The song serves as a grand showcase for the film’s massive ensemble cast. Fans get a glimpse of franchise veterans Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, and Jaaved Jaaferi matching steps to the infectious choreography. Rising star Anjali Anand and the rest of the gang also join in on the madness, creating a visual spectacle that promises a massive family-entertainer experience. The vibrant and fast-paced dance moves were orchestrated by renowned choreographer Rahul Shetty, who ensured the steps were easy enough for fans to replicate in viral dance reels, yet energetic enough to light up the big screen.
The Maddest Treasure Hunt of 2026
The release of ‘Chatni’ comes right on the heels of the film’s official trailer launch, which took place during a massive, star-studded event at Imagicaa. The trailer introduces audiences to what the creators are billing as the franchise’s “biggest and craziest treasure hunt yet.”
While the plot details are being kept under wraps, the promotional material hints at a tropical adventure where the characters are “buried in gold” but plagued by their hilariously questionable morals. The franchise has always excelled at slapstick humor, bizarre situations, and legendary character dynamics. Dhamaal 4 aims to take that dynamic to a global scale with bigger production values and unexpected narrative twists.
The film boasts a massive line-up of comedic and dramatic talent, dividing the chaos among a stellar call sheet.
