Storyline
Title references Mogambo, the lead-antagonist of Bollywood superhero feature Mr. India (1987) played by late actor Amrish Puri. His catchphrase in Hind[ustan]i, "Mogambo khush hua" (translation: Mogambo is delighted). So since this song is about the identity, oppression and struggles of the people of color, Riz MC urges them to take joy in their heritage and step-up to Western, 'Euro Christian'-descended domination by not subscribing to the notion of post-racial society. Such as by trying to find happiness in celebrating festivals like Christmas because in fact, the very notion of "post-racial" is realised through the dominance of the hegemonic "native" culture - to demonstrate that, he emphasises his own Pakistani ancestry in the lyrics.
