For Shah Rukh Khan’s birthday, the makers of the upcoming Bollywood action entertainer KING released its first song, titled Tu Mil Jaaye. In a splendid crossover collaboration, Arijit Singh’s soulful vocals and Ed Sheeran’s distinct rap style have come to tantalize the listener. Composed by Sachin-Jigar with lyrics by Kumaar, an English rap penned by Sheeran, and choreography by Piyush-Shazia, the track reunites SRK and Deepika Padukone in a visually grand, romantic pairing. The music video, which has gone viral on Monday, incorporates slick action sequences and dynamic transitions, ending with an intense dialogue by Khan: “Iss baar dil mein aag lagi hai, ab duniya jalaye bina manega nahi.” The song and its music video are now available on all major streaming platforms as well as the Zee Music Company and T-Series YouTube channels.
Netizens are raving about the song, calling it an absolute banger and instant chartbuster. Ecstatic over Arijit Singh’s magical vocals, they say that it creates pure goosebumps and a fresh, soulful melody they can’t stop looping. SRK’s killer abs, and romantic energy lighted up social media.
Directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Red Chillies Entertainment alongside Marflix Pictures, KING heads for its worldwide theatrical release on December 24. The film also features Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji, Jaideep Ahlawat, Raghav Juyal, and Abhay Verma.
