Earlier, another song titled ‘Womaniya’ from the film had been released. From the get go, ‘Womaniya’ echoes the film’s underlying sentiment i.e. female strength. It begins with both Bhumi and Taapsee as they sit on a cot and talk about the being a woman in a man’s world. The visuals then feature younger versions of the characters as they groove to the peppy track. Both don incredibly vibrant outfits. Saand Ki Aankh was originally supposed to be titled ‘Womaniya’. However, due to legal issues, the makers were unable to acquire rights for the name.
