The first song from Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan, titled Zinda Banda, released on July 31 and broke records. The superstar's energetic and spectacular moves and charisma took over the internet in no time. While the Hindi version is titled Zinda Banda, it released in Tamil as Vandha Edam and as Dhumme Dhulipelaa in Telugu. Composed by Anirudh, the song features Shah Rukh in a larger-than-life avatar.
Shah Rukh fans are clearly in awe of their superstar. However, his dance moves have also impressed Mahindra Group Chairman, Anand Mahindra. Sharing a clip from Zinda Banda on Twitter, he praised Shah Rukh for his energy and the efforts he put into the song. "This hero is 57 years old?? Clearly his ageing process defies gravitational forces! He's 10X as alive as most people. #ZindaBanda ho to aisaâ¦," Anand's tweet read.
