Actress Tamannaah Bhatia recently defended the sensual lyrics of her hit song “Aaj Ki Raat,” revealing that many mothers use the track to help their babies eat.
Dancing to Dinner: A Mother’s Priority
Tamannaah Bhatia, known for her strong performances in both South Indian and Hindi cinema, has become a household name. Her dance numbers, like “Aaj Ki Raat” from Stree 2, are particularly popular. In a recent chat, Tamannaah opened up about her project choices and why she doesn’t take on roles just for the sake of it.
She specifically addressed the playful yet sensual lyrics of “Aaj Ki Raat.” Surprisingly, she shared how the song has found an unexpected audience: babies. “If a child is eating their food while watching my song, then so be it,” she stated.
She revealed that numerous mothers have reached out to her, explaining that their children will only eat their meals while listening to “Aaj Ki Raat.” The actress amusingly described how “babies wiggle around in their diapers” to the catchy tune.
Understanding the Lyrics: A Child’s Perspective
When asked about the sensual nature of the song’s lyrics and their potential impact on young children, Tamannaah offered a practical perspective. She emphasized that a mother’s primary concern is ensuring their child is fed. “Mothers’ concerns are whether their kids are eating properly or not. There are priorities,” she explained.
She further questioned how much a one-year-old would truly understand the lyrics. For them, it’s about the music and the rhythm. “What lyrics will they understand at the age of one? There is music,” she asserted, highlighting that songs often leave a lasting impression beyond their words.
“Aaj Ki Raat” and Box Office Success
