Heard Badshah’s ‘Genda Phool’? Here is the original Bengali folk song that inspired it

After years of punching Punjabi with Hindi in his hip-hop, Badshah has taken to Bengali. His latest track Genda Phool include two lines from a popular Bengali folk song Boroloker Beti Lo, sung by Payal Dev: “The rich man’s daughter has such long hair, it makes me want to tie a red marigold flower to it”.

The video (above) has the rapper, along with Jacqueline Fernandez dressed in a traditional Bengali white sari with a red border. If those catchy Bengali lines are now stuck in your head, here are some versions of the original song.
