Debugging help required

Hi folks,

When listening to 'Sunn Raha Hai (Female Version) - Shreya Ghosal' track from Aashiqui 2, can you hear minor 'crackling' sound from the left speaker / headphone from time to time?

I have tried different lossless sources and earphones / headphones and noticed this problem only on this track.

It seems to be some 'mastering' problem from the studio perhaps?

Are you able to hear this annoying left-side 'crackle' too on this track? Thanks for the help.

It could be CD which is ripped is having scratches.
In that case CD ripping is not 100% accurate, we hear crackling sound.

I can hear it on Apple Music lossless too. I have been unable to find a physical CD for Aashiqui 2 to trace the problem further. It seems more and more like a studio mastering problem (not that I know anything about it). Thanks!
