Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan rang in his 61st birthday on Monday by treating fans to Tu Mil Jaaye, a romantic track from his upcoming action thriller King, featuring Deepika Padukone.
Tu Mil Jaaye features vocals by Arijit Singh, Madhubanti Bagchi, and Ed Sheeran (courtesy Interscope Records and Gingerbread Man Records). The lyrics have been penned by Kumaar and the music composed by Sachin-Jigar. The choreography has been handled by Piyush and Shazia.
The song, however, triggered mixed reactions online, with several viewers comparing its visuals and overall treatment to the actor’s earlier films Pathaan and Jawan.
Shah Rukh shared the song on social media at midnight, offering a glimpse into the romantic chemistry between him and Deepika, alongside action-packed sequences from the Siddharth Anand directorial.
Sharing the track, the actor wrote, “This era of love is bestowed upon the fortunate ones... Where roses bloom amidst the fragrance of gunpowder...Of Love and other Battles...This December, #LoveLikeAKing #TuMilJaaye song out now! #KING.”
The video opens with glimpses of Shah Rukh and Deepika’s romance, with the actor appearing deeply in love and listening intently to his partner. The romantic moments are interspersed with high-octane action sequences, showing Shah Rukh taking on his enemies through hand-to-hand combat and gunfights.
The video ends with Shah Rukh delivering the dialogue, “Aur iss baar dil mein aag lagi hai, toh duniya jalaye bina maanega nahi”.
While some fans praised the actor’s chemistry with Deepika, others felt the song’s visual treatment was reminiscent of his previous action films.
“If someone told me this was from Pathaan 2, I would’ve believed them,” one X user commented. “Looks like a Khichdi of Pathaan and Jawan,” commented another user. “ A cheap copy of Pathaan,” quipped one more user.
Directed by Anand, King marks the sixth collaboration between Shah Rukh and Deepika. The film also features Abhishek Bachchan and Suhana Khan, along with Rani Mukerji, Raghav Juyal, Arshad Warsi and Jaideep Ahlawat in key roles.
