Featuring Rehmat Rattan, music score by Aar Bee, lyrics penned by M.S. Abid, the song, Benaqab talks about how scars are beautiful and surpasses the pre-conceived definition of "beauty" as per society's standards. Set in the backdrop of Kashmir's scenic landscapes and its tranquility, Benaqab weaves the definition of true love through its lyrics. The male protagonist is deeply in love with a girl and the scar from the acid attack made on her in the past, fails to shake his love for her.


One of the leading folk and Sufi singers, Lakhwinder Wadali has evolved his style and has gained massive popularity. Usually, his singing style combines a fine blend of classical and contemporary music. 'Alaaps' and 'Taans' are his vital aspects.



Lakhwinder Wadali has performed internationally and in domestic regions. In the past, he has collaborated with many eminent musicians such as Himesh Reshammiya, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Shanker Mahadevan, Mika Singh, Shaan, Shreya Ghoshal, Ila Arun, Anand Raj Anand and Mohit Chauhan.


For the unversed, Lakhwinder Wadali belongs to the Wadali family (Wadali Brothers) of Patiala Gharana, Punjab. He has trained extensively in the art of folk music under the guidance of his father Padma Shri Ustad Puran Chand Wadali Ji and uncle Ustad Shri Piyare Lal Wadali Ji (Well Known As Wadali Brothers).
