With the beginning of 2019, many new Bollywood movies are all set to entertain the audience. From Kalank to Gully Boy and Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, fans are excited to see these fresh narratives on screen.

And now, after the trailer release of Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, the title track of this unconventional romance has been released which has taken us down the memory lane.

Read: Sonam Kapoor seems to be in love with a woman in Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga trailer 

Featuring Rajkumar Rao and Sonam Kapoor in lead roles, the film’s trailer, though appeared to be conventional, was anything but that; this coming of the age romantic film will show Sonam in love with another woman. Speaking about the song, though Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga was originally part of Anil Kapoor’s 1942: A Love Story, this rendition is unique and refreshing and holds little similarity with the original.

Darshan Raval who has sung popular songs like Chogada Tara and Kamariya (Mitron) has lent his voice for this soulful and melodious track. Written by Gurpreet Saini, the video of the song shows Rajkummar Rao as a young man who falls in love with a friend (Sonam Kapoor). He daydreams about her, enjoys her company and seems to be totally mesmerized by her. However, this one-sided affection soon takes a hit when both it’s revealed that she is, in fact, in love with a girl.

Although the title track video is the same as the trailer visually, the song definitely surpasses our expectations in a good way. Amidst the new trend of remixing or re-creating original songs, this one by far outshines all. The film which is slated for release on 1st February 2019 stars Anil Kapoor and Juhi Chawla in leading roles, too.

Get mesmerized by Darshan’s vocals and let us know what you think:
