Bigg Boss 19: Amaal Mallik shares emotional story behind hit song ‘Roke Na Ruke Naina’

Amaal Mallik shares emotional story behind Roke Na Ruke Naina in Bigg Boss 19

Bigg Boss 19 on JioHotstar and Colors has been keeping fans hooked, not just with all the house drama but by giving them a real peek into the lives of the contestants.

One recent moment that stood out was when music composer and singer Amaal Mallik opened up about the personal story behind his hit song, ‘Roke Na Ruke Naina’—and it’s one that really hits the heart.

Amaal shared that the song came during a tough time for him—he was going through a breakup. “I was going through a breakup and was supposed to go on a trip when Shashank gave me this song,” he explained.

At first, he wasn’t sure about working on the song while travelling, but Shashank encouraged him to keep going during the trip. Clearly, that turned out to be the right call, because the song’s emotion shines through.

The second part of the song is especially close to Amaal’s heart. “It was a final disconnection for us—we weren’t supposed to meet again. That’s when I wrote, ‘Haathon ki lakeere do milti jahan hai, jisko pata hai bata de, jagah wo kahan hai,’” he said, reflecting on the bittersweet ending of a relationship.

He just came, recorded within 20 minutes, and those very 20 minutes won him the Filmfare,” Amaal shared, showing just how effortlessly magic can happen in the studio.

Bigg Boss 19 is more than just a reality show—it’s a window into the real emotions and stories of its contestants.
