The lyrics of the rap song will trigger another 'war' between Delhiites and Mumbaikars and it is sure to go viral.
Both the stars take potshots at each other's city people and mannerisms..like the 'oye' used to call out in Delhi city is faced with the 'kissing' sound made in Mumbai.. the lingo used on streets like pyaaz-kanda, bhaag-phut, aloo-batata, roti-chapati.. to the stars cities gave.. SRK-Salman, Sehwag-Sachin... This battle is actually epic!
The track, composed by Shameer Tandon and penned by lyricist Varun Likhate, is titled "BC Rap Knockout: Mumbai vs Delhi".

Both rappers are managed and represented by One Digital Entertainment, which collaborated with Y-Films on the special track, read a statement.
Talking about the experience, Vijender said: "It was great fun for me to go head-to-head with Riteish on this song because of the 'epic rap battle' format. I am used to throwing punches in the ring, so this was like a musical bout, where I was throwing barbs at Riteish."
"I was proud to represent Delhi in this battle, and hope people take it in the same spirit as we made it."
The inimitable Riteish said: "If there's one thing I've actually loved about doing 'Bank Chor', it is that I play a Marathi Manoos in it, who is an out-and-out Mumbaikar. This song is special to me for the same reason -- I got to represent my city, the city of dreams, Mumbai."
