context_page_description: "Horn OK Please" is the fifth single released from the soundtrack of the 2014 Bollywood film starring Naseeruddin Shah, Arshad Warsi, Madhuri Dixit and Huma Qureshi in lead roles directed by Abhishek Chaubey. The song is composed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the composer and co-producer of the film with the lyrics written by long-term collaborator Gulzar, performed by Honey Singh, Sukhwinder Singh and with backing vocals by Anushka Manchanda. The song was released on 24 December 2013 on iTunes. The single has a theme of Babban searching for Khalujaan after separation being explored.
  The song marks the first time collaboration of Gulzar with Honey Singh, who voices Warsi.
context_section_description: The song has its lyrics written by veteran lyricist and poet Gulzar including the rap verse sung by Honey Singh. The idea of Honey Singhs inclusion in the song was Vishal Bhardwajs who thought his voice would be fit for Warsi's character. It is the first time Gulzar has written a song's rap verses also the first time Singh rapped to one not written by him. Gulzar included one line of the rap verse, "Tere Bina Zindagi Se Koi Shiqwa Toh Nahin" from the song of the same name from the film Aandhi. According to Singh, it is a "lovely composition" and was a "fun, crazy experience" for him. Sukhwinder Singh who voiced the character of Naseeruddin Shah in the single considered the collaboration of Singh, Gulzar's lyrics and Bhardwaj's composition to be a "good cocktail". For the single, Singh was asked to rap in a Haryanvi accent that Warsi's character, Babban has in both the films. Bhardwaj did three recordings with Singh with the last one being the final one. The song has a feel particular to that found in North Indian states like Delhi and Uttar Pradesh with Singh describing it as "zany crazy piece of writing". Bhardwaj said that he did not include Singh for monetary purposes contrary to popular belief that Singh is a commercial rapper who has delivered hits like Lungi Dance.
