Composed by C Ramchandra, Qismat Ki Hawa’s lyrics are as it goes: “Qismat ki hawa kabhi naram kabhi garam, kabhi naram naram kabhi garam garam (The winds of destiny are sometimes mild, and at times, harsh).”
The song has been used in the meme by its makers with regards to the political situation in Bihar.
Nitish Kumar is set to take oath as Bihar’s eighth chief minister on Wednesday. Ending his coalition with the BJP on August 9, Nitish Kumar submitted his resignation to Governor Phagu Chauhan and a list of 164 MLAs as he claimed the support of seven parties to form a new government.
Lalu Yadav's son and Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav will be sworn in as Nitish Kumar’s deputy.
