Anticipation for Love Guru grows the closer we get to the release date. And that's not just because Eid is within reach but also thanks to every snippet and song from the romantic comedy that is being unveiled prior to the big day. The creators are back to break our hearts with a melancholic number from the soundtrack, titled Toot Gaya.

The stirring song strums its way into your soul before sweeping you off your feet with the lyrics, floating over clips of the yearning love interests. Mahira Khan and Humayun Saeed's wistful chemistry adds an extra kick as the harmonic blend of vocals from Yashal Shahid, Farhan Saeed, Zain and Zohaib take you on an emotional ride.

While the song departs on a high note, leaving you aching for more, it's a fulfilling tease for fans lying in wait for the film. Many of Farhan's fans stormed the comments section, with one user writing, "This man just rips your soul apart with that smooth, honey-like voice of his. It's so raw and rich in emotion. It's like flames setting water alight."

Meanwhile, Mahira's fans noted that the song brought out the best in the actor, as a user gushed, "Oh, my God. Perfect. This is purely Mahira-coded. The depth, impact, and gravity – this is where our Mahira shines the brightest! This video left me craving for so much more! Cant wait for the release!"

Yashal and Humayun's fans were also not to be taken lightly as they sent their many compliments to the artists for elevating the song with their presence, confident that the film will impress audiences far and wide after it hits theatres.

Tracks that were unveiled before Toot Gaya included Pashto dance song Sada Ashna, groovy party number Aa Tenu, and title track Dil Toran Waleya.

What to expect

The official trailer for Love Guru dropped in May, flaunting a star-studded cast of Humayun, Mahira, Javed Sheikh, Marina Khan, Mira Sethi, Sohai Ali Abro, and more. Helmed by Nadeem Baig, the film is slated to hit theatres this Eidul Azha.

Set in London, the romantic comedy follows Humayun's love-hopping character as he vows to rescue all women one romantic connection at a time. "My love isn't for one woman. I want to save them all through this love," he says.

Enter Mahira's Sophia Khan, an architect who is all set to get married, oblivious to the interference that's going to change everything. Signing on his new assignment, our love expert conspires with Sophia's father to prevent the marriage from happening.

Cue a montage of meet-cutes, comedic moments, and banter that amps up the chemistry between our two leads, promising the audience a film packed with heart-swelling moments. The trailer also teases the film's music, from upbeat dance numbers to romantic ballads, as the two groove to the rhythm or take to the skies in a hot air balloon.

Much like the shot of the two soaring through the clouds, the film is infused with scenic moments that add to the adrenaline kick that the love story offers. From an intimate boat ride to road trips across a winding landscape, the film lands a lasting visual impression on its wonderstruck audience.

With a screenplay penned by Vasay Chaudhry, a key appeal of the film is the reunion of the Bin Roye stars in what appears to be another tale packed with obstacles that challenge the leads' affection for each other. We'll find out soon whether or not Humayun and Mahira's characters will trump the odds dividing them.
