Singer Shaan and son Shubh have collaborated for their second film outing after Himmatwala (2013). The duo recorded a children's song, Hukus Bukus, for an upcoming film, Hamid. Shaan tells mid-day, "I composed the song whilst keeping the original track by the same name in mind. The history of the 2017 Kashmiri song [attracted me]. I gave it a reggae touch, but used traditional instruments like the rabaab, along with Kashmiri percussions."

In order to create this version, Shaan heard multiple remixes of the track before deciding the lyrics. While one might reckon that singing in Kashmiri would have been cumbersome for the father-son duo, Shaan suggests otherwise. "Since it was my composition, singing it was not tedious. Also, Shubh is gifted when it comes to his pitch. Once he understood the song's demands, singing it was a cakewalk."
