Bahraini singer Flipperachi achieves a Guinness World Record for his track 'FA9LA' that featured in 'Dhurandhar'. The singer was rejoiced over his achievement and shared the news on his social media.
Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar has been a huge success ever since its release in the theatres. The movie had a stellar cast, an entertaining and gripping storyline, romance, action, and everything combined in one wholesome package.
Apart from a compelling storyline, Dhurandhar had some great tracks. Singers like Arijit Singh, Hanumankind, Irshad Kamil, and others lent their voices for its playback tracks. One of its most renowned tracks, FA9LA by Flipperachi, has broken records ever since its release in the film.
Flipperachi is a Bahraini singer whose Arabic track FA9LA was featured in Dhurandhar when Akshaye Khanna goes to complete an arms deal in the Baloch-dominated territory of Pakistan. The song has achieved Flipperachi a Guinness World Record for topping the Arabian Charts on most billboards. The song was hummed, and Akshaye Khanna’s dance was impersonated by everyone and performed widely.
The achievement has made Flipperachi a talking point far beyond the Middle East, but especially in India, where the song received wide success and became widely popular despite its Arabic lyrics. Reacting to the honour of achieving a Guinness World Record, Flipperachi released a video statement, saying that it is an incredible feeling for him. He was surprised to see a non-Hindi song become so popular in Hindi-speaking regions. Flipperachi also said that the song topped four charts simultaneously.
With the song gaining wide recognition, combined with Khanna’s entry dance steps, the song and the step were recreated by many creators and became viral through reels and videos on Instagram and YouTube Shorts. When FA9LA was released, Flipperachi told the media that his DMs were filled with praise and were blowing up every single day.
Flipperachi shared many images on his social profiles and wrote ‘‘Guinness World Records, Habibi! This is a great feeling. This song became famous in a language (Hindi) in which it was not sung. I was told that the song is at the top of four different charts.’’
FA9LA reached the top of four Billboard charts created by Billboard Arabia, namely, Top 100 Artists, Hot 100 Songs, Top 50 Khaleeji and Top 50 Arabic Hip Hop. In India, the songs remained extremely popular over social media and were played in subsequent weddings and events by the DJ. Flipperachi has also hinted that the track might make a comeback in Dhurandhar 2, which is set to be released in March 2026.
Flipperachi was born with the name Hussam Aseem and has established a strong name for himself in Arab Hip Hop. The 36-year-old singer started his journey in Bahrain and found his passion for music at a very young age. He dominated the Arabic Hip Hop music industry as English dominated the overall Hip Hop industry. Flipperachi has performed many international, regional, national, and underground gigs and built a pristine reputation. Flipperachi’s debut album, Straight Out of 2seas, was released in 2013 and helped him lay a foundation stone for creating an identity for himself in the Arab Hip Hop world.
