The song, which was released in May as part of Coke Studio Pakistan's season 15, recently made its place among trending songs on Spotify in India, leaving fans stunned at its popularity.
The song’s rising popularity prompted Indian listeners to post their reactions to social media.
They took to Instagram to share their reactions to the song as one user wrote: "Divided by history... together by coke studio."
Another joked: "Scroll krte krte border pai aa gya." (It seems as I have reached the border while scrolling).
The song was also featured on a video celebrating French footballer Kylian Mbappe which was posted on the official TikTok account of the international football association Fifa.
"Blockbuster" was written and composed by Zulfikar Jabbar Khan (Xulfi), Umair Butt, rapper Faris Shafi, and Shamroz Butt and the song features a catchy folk music touch.
