Ul Jalool Ishq, First Song From Manish Malhotra’s Debut Film Gustaakh Ishq

Manish Malhotra has launched his debut film Gustaakh Ishq with the release of its first song Ul Jalool Ishq, and the track immediately sets a striking tone for the project.


The song, composed by Vishal Bhardwaj with evocative lyrics by Gulzar, carries an aura that is both haunting and tender, giving audiences a glimpse into the film’s emotional core.


Fatima Sana Shaikh redefines love song with feminine gaze in Ul Jalool Ishq


At the heart of Ul Jalool Ishq is Fatima Sana Shaikh. Her screen presence dominates the narrative, framed against the fading beauty of Punjab’s old kothis. Walking through deserted corridors, she conveys longing and resilience without a word, turning the track into more than just a love song. Instead of being portrayed as a passive muse, her character appears as an emotional anchor whose inner world shapes the story.

Director Vibhu Puri captures Fatima’s intensity with delicate detail, while Malhotra’s vision as producer ensures that the film introduces a new perspective on love. Ul Jalool Ishq invites viewers to feel with the protagonist rather than simply admire her, offering a feminine gaze rarely seen in mainstream cinema.


Produced under Stage5 Production by Manish Malhotra and his brother Dinesh Malhotra, Gustaakh Ishq promises to blend music, poetry, and performance into a layered cinematic experience.
