Screenshot from YouTube Manoj Bajpayee in a still from 'Bambai Main Ka Ba'. Over more than six minutes, the song tears apart the comfortable veil through which the privileged class prefers to view migrant workers, with Bajpayee delivering his lines with an expression of amused defiance on his face. Through it all, the refrain is Bambai Main Ka Ba (What is there in Bombay?) “Anubhav sir asked me to compose a rap song in Bhojpuri to capture the anger and pain of the migrant worker who had to travel back home in penury and even on foot. Anubhav sir gave me the track of an English rap song to understand the rhythm, which I listened to once or twice,” he said.
