What happens when Spider-Man meets Haryanvi beats? You might be surprised reading about it, but it’s for real. Marvel\u2019s latest Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/em> promotional video has given a desi twist to the superhero world by featuring Banjaare\u2019s <\/em>Haryanvi song \u2018Barsaat\u2019.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hollywood and Bollywood have crossed paths many times, but every time a familiar Indian song suddenly appears in a Hollywood film or promotional campaign, it surprises the audience.<\/p>\n

How did the song get featured in the <\/strong>Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/strong><\/em> promotional video?<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ahead of the film\u2019s release, Sony Pictures Entertainment India unveiled a special promo featuring \u2018Barsaat\u2019, an emotional track by indie Haryanvi duo Banjaare.<\/p>\n

The song was selected for a special promotional campaign for Spider-Man: Brand New Day<\/em>. The makers felt that Banjaare\u2019<\/strong>s \u2018<\/strong>Barsaat\u2019 matched Peter Parker\u2019s emotional journey after MJ forgets him in Spider-Man: No Way Home<\/em>. Its themes of heartbreak, loneliness and separation fit the character\u2019s pain, making it a suitable choice for the India-focused promo.<\/p>\n

This unexpected combination has caught the attention online, showing how Indian songs and music travel globally.<\/p>\n

\"Banjaare<\/picture><\/div>\n

Banjaare is an Haryanvi music duo formed by brothers Sumit and Anuj, who hail from a village in Haryana.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who is <\/strong>Banjaare<\/strong><\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Banjaare <\/em>is a Haryanvi music duo made up of cousins Sumit and Anuj from Sandwa village in Haryana\u2019s Bhiwani district. The two developed an interest in singing from a young age and decided to pursue music seriously during the COVID-19 lockdown.<\/p>\n

The duo started their own YouTube channel and initially struggled to find success. They released five songs, but none of them gained much attention. Their sixth song, \u2018<\/strong>Bairan\u2019<\/strong>, gave them huge fame.<\/p>\n

\"Anuj<\/picture><\/div>\n

Anuj lent his voice to the song, while Sumit composed the music. Released as an audio track in January 2026, \u2018Bairan\u2019 became popular among listeners.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  • \u2018Bairan\u2019s animated video, released in February 2026, helped the song reach an even wider audience.<\/li>\n
  • The song later topped the Billboard India chart, bringing Banjaare national attention.<\/li>\n
  • The duo also began receiving offers from music artists and companies in Haryana, Punjab, and Mumbai.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    Hollywood embraces India\u2019s diverse musical sounds<\/strong><\/p>\n

    But this is not the first time a Hollywood project has turned to Indian music. Over the years, Hindi, Punjabi and other Indian-language songs have appeared in Hollywood films, trailers and promotional material.<\/p>\n

    From \u2018Chaiyya Chaiyya\u2019 to \u2018Barsaat\u2019: India\u2019s music travels worldwide<\/strong><\/p>\n

    From Shah Rukh Khan\u2019s \u2018Chaiyya Chaiyya\u2019 in Inside Man<\/em> to Raj Kapoor\u2019s \u2018Mera Joota Hai Japani\u2019 in Deadpool<\/em>, several iconic Indian songs have made unexpected appearances in Hollywood films and campaigns.<\/p>\n

      \u2018Chaiyya Chaiyya\u2019 used in <\/strong>Inside Man<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      <\/picture><\/div>\n

      One of the most memorable examples came in Spike Lee\u2019s 2006 crime thriller Inside Man<\/em>, starring Denzel Washington, Clive Owen and Jodie Foster.<\/p>\n

      The film opens with \u2018Chaiyya Chaiyya\u2019, the A.R. Rahman-composed song from the 1998 Shah Rukh Khan and Manisha Koirala-starrer Dil Se<\/em>. The song was used during the opening credits, while a remix featuring Panjabi MC also appeared during the end credits.<\/p>\n

      \u2018Mera Joota Hai Japani\u2019 in <\/strong>Deadpool<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      \"Ryan<\/picture><\/div>\n

      Ryan Reynolds\u2019 Deadpool gave Indian audiences another unforgettable surprise in 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n

      The film featured Raj Kapoor\u2019s iconic \u2018Mera Joota Hai Japani\u2019 from Shree 420<\/em>. The song can be heard while Deadpool interacts with his Indian-origin taxi driver, Dopinder, played by Karan Soni. It was also used at the beginning and end of the film.<\/p>\n

      According to a report at the time, director Tim Miller had first heard the song in a pub in New Zealand and liked it so much that he eventually decided to use it in Deadpool<\/em>. The cast and crew reportedly liked it as well.<\/p>\n

      \u2018Jaan Pehchan Ho\u2019 in <\/strong>Ghost World<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      \"The<\/picture><\/div>\n

      The Hindi song was played in \u2018Ghost World\u2019 during the opening sequence, with the scene eventually showing a character dancing to it while it plays on television.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Another interesting example came even earlier with the 2001 film Ghost World<\/em>, starring Thora Birch and Scarlett Johansson.<\/p>\n

      The film uses Mohammed Rafi\u2019s \u2018Jaan Pehchan Ho\u2019, originally from the 1965 Hindi film Gumnaam<\/em>.<\/p>\n

      \"\u2018Jaan<\/picture><\/div>\n

      \u2018Jaan Pehchan\u2019 is a famous 1965 rock-and-roll Hindi song.<\/span><\/p>\n

      The song\u2019s energetic, slightly surreal quality fitted the film\u2019s unconventional tone, making it more than just a random musical reference.<\/p>\n

      \u2018Chamma Chamma\u2019 in <\/strong>Moulin Rouge!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      Indian music also found its way into Baz Luhrmann\u2019s 2001 musical Moulin Rouge!<\/em>.<\/p>\n

      \"The<\/picture><\/div>\n

      The song became part of the film\u2019s colourful, highly stylised musical world.<\/span><\/p>\n

      It was another example of how Indian rhythms and musical arrangements could fit naturally into a Western production built around spectacle and performance.<\/p>\n

      \"\u2018Chamma<\/picture><\/div>\n

      \u2018Chamma Chamma\u2019, the popular song from the Hindi film China Gate, was used in the Hollywood film.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \u2018Mundian Tu Bach Ke\u2019 in <\/strong>The Dictator<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      Punjabi music has also made a strong mark internationally.<\/p>\n

      \"The<\/picture><\/div>\n

      The song had already crossed cultural boundaries through its international popularity and Jay-Z\u2019s 2003 remix.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Panjabi MC\u2019s \u2018Mundian Tu Bach Ke\u2019 became a global hit and was later used in the promotional campaign for Sacha Baron Cohen\u2019s 2012 comedy The Dictator<\/em>. The track\u2019s high-energy sound made it a natural choice for the film\u2019s irreverent marketing.<\/p>\n

      \u2018Jimmy Jimmy\u2019 in <\/strong>You Don\u2019t Mess with the Zohan<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      \"Mithun<\/picture><\/div>\n

      Mithun Chakraborty\u2019s disco-era hit \u2018Jimmy Jimmy\u2019 from Disco Dancer also received a Hollywood moment.<\/span><\/p>\n

      The song\u2019s tune was used in Adam Sandler\u2019s 2008 comedy You Don\u2019t Mess with the Zohan<\/em>. Its instantly recognisable disco sound fitted the film\u2019s exaggerated comedy and action sequences.<\/p>\n

      The inclusion was particularly nostalgic for Indian audiences who grew up listening to the original.<\/p>\n

      <\/picture><\/div>\n

      The 2008 romantic comedy The Accidental Husband<\/em>, starring Uma Thurman, Colin Firth and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, went even further by incorporating several Indian songs.<\/p>\n

      The film featured \u2018Chalka Chalka Re\u2019 from Saathiya<\/em>, \u2018Mujhe Rang De\u2019 from Thakshak<\/em> and \u2018Swasame Swasame\u2019 from the Tamil film Thenali<\/em>. Indian music was woven into scenes involving an Indian family, celebrations and weddings.<\/p>\n

      \u2018Urvasi Urvasi\u2019 in <\/strong>Lion<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

      \"The<\/picture><\/div>\n

      The famous song “Urvasi Urvasi” was sung by different artists depending on the language version, with composer A. R. Rahman.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Dev Patel\u2019s Lion<\/em> also featured Indian music. A version of \u2018Urvasi Urvasi\u2019, originally from the Tamil film Kadhalan<\/em>, appears in the 2016 film.<\/p>\n

      The film\u2019s connection with India made the inclusion feel especially relevant, while also introducing a popular Indian track to audiences unfamiliar with its original context.<\/p>\n

      The journey from \u2018Chaiyya Chaiyya\u2019 and \u2018Mera Joota Hai Japani\u2019 to a Haryanvi song being used for a Spider-Man promotional campaign shows how dramatically the global reach of Indian music has expanded.<\/em><\/p>\n
