Student of the Year's "The Disco Song" sets feet tapping!

By Rohini Nadia


Veteran filmmaker Karan Johar's films are known for their catchy soundtrack. Just like his earlier directorial ventures including Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998), Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham (2001), Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006) and My Name Is Khan (2010), Karan Johar's upcoming film Student of the Year packs songs that are bound to have you tapping your feet. The film's music was composed by music-director duo Vishal Shekhar, while the lyrics were written by Anvita Dutt Guptan. The first promo of the soundtrack included The Disco Song, and was released on the 28th of August 2012, months before the film's release. This was followed by the Student of the Year album release on the 31st of August 2012.

As always, Karan Johar wanted his upcoming film's first song to be a punchy number, and had the video where one can Siddharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt shaking their leg to the tune. The song sports portions of the late Pakistani singer Nazia Hassan's Disco Deewane released in 1981. A pop number produced by Indian producer Biddu, the song went on to break sales records in South-East Asia, selling nearly 1,00,000 records within a day.

The track is a party-perfect number with additional vocals by Benny Dayal and Sunidhi Chauhan. The Student of the Year soundtrack isn't all about punchy music and also includes a romantic song called "Ishq Wala Love", sung by Shekhar Ravjiani, Neeti Mohan and Salim Merchant. The song was the second promo and was released on the 6th of September, 2012. With 'Ratta Maar", "Kukkad", "Vele" and the track "Mashup of the Year" completing the film's soundtrack, Karan Johar's Student of the Year's music was well received and is expected to be a crowd puller when the film releases.

Karan Johar has given The Disco Song just enough bling to make it a treat to the eyes. The film's lead casts Siddharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt, who are also making their first big-screen appearance, have stolen the show with their glittering performance in the music video. There have also been rumors of megastar Kajol making a special appearance for the song, which is bound to work as a crowd puller. Kajol has done cameos for Karan Johar films in the past including Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna and Kal Ho Naa Ho. Also, given the fact that Karan considers the actor to be a lucky mascot, the audience might just be treated by her appearance.

Student of the Year is Karan Johar's fifth directorial venture. The film will hit theater screens on the 19th of October 2012. One of the most awaited movies of the year, Karan Johar's Student of the Year has Siddharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt playing the rolls of three students.
