"Bhatti Gate Wala" celebrates the seven gates of the Walled City — Bhatti, Lohari, Dilli, Mochi, Taxali, Akbari and Roshnai — and the diaspora audience has claimed the song as its own, naming their gate in the comments. Sung in Punjabi and Urdu, the track mixes the old city's street sounds with a modern beat. Cemo Basen, based in Virginia, USA, is running a TikTok sprint of 10 videos a day around the song, and the official music video is now in the works.
The single is available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook.
