Soon after the movie was released, clips of that entry scene flooded social media.
A high-energy Bahraini rap track has found new life on the big screen, and fans can’t stop replaying it. FA9LA, originally by Flipperachi and Daffy, made its Bollywood debut in Dhurandhar. The moment the song hit, matched to Akshaye Khanna’s character’s introduction, the film’s mood changed. The Arabic beats, heavy bass, and raw energy gave the scene a magnetic, cinematic power. That contrast, Gulf-rap in a Bollywood crime thriller, turned heads fast.
Soon after the movie was released, clips of that entry scene flooded social media. Reels, edits, memes, all celebrating the fresh sound and Khanna’s imposing screen presence. FA9LA’s reach extended far beyond regional boundaries, drawing in music lovers and movie fans alike.
In Bahraini Arabic, “FA9LA” doesn’t refer to a name. It captures a vibe, confidence, swagger, a readiness to conquer. The track’s energy doesn’t tiptoe, it stomps. With pounding drums and bold lyrics, it sets a tone of power and dominance.
Some of the lyrics go like this:
Yakhi Doos Doos 3indi Khosh Fasla
Yakhi Tafooz Tafooz Wallah Khosh Raqsa3indi Lak Raqsa Qawiya Ya Al-Habib
Ismaha Sabooha Khatabha Naseeb
Mid Yadak Jink Bta3tiha Kaf
Wa Hez Jitfik 7eel Khallik Shadeed
Translation in English:
Brother, dance hard - I’m ready for a good time.
Brother, dodge, dodge - by God, let’s have a great dance.
I’ve got a powerful dance for you, my dear.
It’s called Sabooha - destiny wrote it for you.
Raise your hand, give her a clap.
Shake your shoulders with strength - stay fierce.
The rest invites listeners to lift their hands, clap, and stay fierce. It’s not a love song — it’s a power anthem. When paired with Khanna’s entrance, it doesn’t whisper suspense; it screams it.
Behind FA9LA is Flipperachi, the stage name of Bahraini rapper Hussam Aseem. He’s no overnight sensation. He found his calling early, started rapping in his teens, and formally entered the music world around 2003. Over two decades, he built a reputation in Arab hip-hop with gritty street-rap and Middle-Eastern rhythms.
Flipperachi is not only active in producing bold tracks; he’s also earned acclaim. In 2024, he won the Bahraini Artist of the Year award. Some of his other hits include “Ee Laa,” “Shino AlKalam Hatha,” “Shoofha,” and “Nayda.” With FA9LA now hitting Bollywood, he’s crossed a cultural boundary and reached millions more listeners.

For now, FA9LA stands as proof that music does more than entertain. It connects. It surprises. And when rhythm meets visuals right — it can make a scene unforgettable.
