Jawaani Jaaneman co-stars Saif Ali Khan along with Alaya F attended the launch event of their song Ole Ole at a pub in Andheri, Mumbai. Saif's chartbuster Ole ole holds as much charm today as it did upon its release in 1994. Not surprising then that the actor-producer has revisited the Yeh Dillagi track in his next.

In Jawaani Jaaneman, Saif Ali Khan plays an unabashed and unassuming playboy who wears his heart on his sleeve. Alaya F plays his daughter, while Tabu plays her mother.

Jawaani Jaaneman is going to be all the more exciting as it is a unique love story of a man who has two women in his life, completely different from one another. The flick is about a father-daughter duo having a roller-coaster ride full of fun, emotions and lots of heart-warming moments thrown in.
Pooja Bedi's daughter Alaya F, who is a social media star already, will be making her Bollywood debut with Jawaani Jaaneman. The star kid looked pretty in her black suit dress as she attended the song launch event in Andheri.
The reprised version is an ode to Saif Ali Khan's "jawani" days, said composer Tanishk Bagchi in a chat with mid-day. "Since Ole ole is an all-time classic, the producers [Jackky Bhagnani and Jay Shewakramani] decided on recreating this fun song. Lyricist Shabbir [Ahmed] and I have worked on quite a few songs. While writing the lyrics for this track, he tried to retain the fun element. The idea was to the better the original song and enhance its feel."
Prod Bagchi for the star's reaction to the new version, and he says, "He loved our treatment." Nitin Kakkar added, "Considering it became a cult song, there is a lot of pressure riding on us as we want the track to resonate with the audience the way the original version did."
