Flipperachi Says ‘FA9LA’ Success In Dhurandhar Proves Language Isn’t A Barrier

Bahraini rapper Flipperachi is gaining unexpected fame in India after his Arabic trap track FA9LA featured in the blockbuster Bollywood film Dhurandhar, proving that powerful music can cross linguistic boundaries.

In a conversation with IANS, Flipperachi admitted he never expected his music to reach millions of listeners outside his home region through a Hindi-language film. “Language isn’t a barrier when the energy is right,” he said, reflecting on how FA9LA resonated with audiences across India despite being in Arabic.

The inclusion of FA9LA in Dhurandhar, a high-octane spy thriller that has drawn massive viewership, has significantly boosted the rapper’s profile. Known for his genre-blending sound and bold storytelling, Flipperachi has built a global fanbase spanning diverse cultures and languages, but the song’s success in India marks his most widespread exposure yet.

Flipperachi is now gearing up for his first live performance in India, scheduled for 13 March 2026 in Mumbai. Speaking about the upcoming show, he expressed gratitude and excitement, noting the unique experience of connecting with fans who have embraced his music even before his physical arrival. “It’s something unique when people connect with your music before you even step into their country,” he said.

The phenomenon highlights how film placements can catapult international artists into new markets, and how energetic, culturally magnetic tracks can transcend language barriers.
