The song ‘Bajre da sitta’ has been written by Rashmeet Kaur and Deep Kalsi, with rap by Ikka, and is like most of the folk songs and it is the representation of people’s daily lives involving light-hearted teasing, and slightly exaggerates events to add to the drama. The song has been taken from an old Punjabi folk song which was originally sung by Surinder and Prakash Kaur.

In ‘Bajre Da Sitta’, a woman is shown talking about how she is trying to win over her angry lover by comparing the process to her job at the millet (bajra) farms. This is what the chorus of the song actually means. 

I twist and turn this cob of millet on my palms,

As my lover walks away angry,

(But) I’ve made my angry lover turn from his path

                                                 

The black clouds have gathered, like the storm in my spirits 

(Signifying her unrest at his anger)

Don’t get angry with me today lover, you have my swear

(Like) the pitter-patter of rain, my youth laughs with abandon

In this beautiful weather, no one leaves the house.
