The over 3-minute song is set in a circus-like atmosphere — there are motor cyclists showing their biking skills fireworks and torches glow in the background along with a jazzy array of lights as the lead pair make an entry. A peppy romantic dance number sees Sara matching steps with a seasoned Ranveer like a pro. She seems to the manor born... looking confident in front of the camera. Ranveer of course fits into the role with aplomb.

The song even has cameos by Simmba producer Karan Johar and Arshad Warsi the latter being the male lead in the original song. Also seen in it is Rohit’s Golmaal gang including Shreyas Talpade Tusshar Kapoor Kunal Kemmu apart from Arshad. The only one missing is Ajay Degvn. We are also told that Kumar Sanu sang the original score.

Simmba is the official remake of Telugu superhit Temper which starred Jr NTR and Kajal Aggarwal and is about a corrupt cop with temper issues who has a transformative experience after a kidnapping incident. Simmba’s trailer was recently unveiled and showed Ranveer playing a corrupt cop who changes after a brutal incident of rape.

Simmba hits the screens on December 28.
