Will SRK, Kajol's 'Gerua' be this year's top hit?

Celebrities are going berserk over the iconic couple's sizzling chemistry in Dilwale's latest song

Gerua, the first song of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol's upcoming film Dilwale was released yesterday, and it is highly reminiscent of the iconic couple's sizzling chemistry in Suraj Hua Madham from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.

Fourteen years down the line, Kajol still looks breathtaking as she flaunts her fiery sarees among the most scenic locations in the arms of King Khan himself.

Shah Rukh's signature pose will never get old no matter how many times we see it on-screen, and it continues to give us butterflies while watching this five-minute romantic number.



The actor looks dapper clad in suits, though it would have been an added bonus if he had flaunted his killer abs, like he did in Manwa Laage from Happy New Year.

The breathtaking locations ranging from beaches, deserts, waterfalls and mountains to cold valleys of Iceland may constitute all the four elements of nature, but Shah Rukh and Kajol's invincible chemistry is the element that stands out the most.



SRK took to Twitter to share the meaning of Gerua and thanked everyone who contributed towards this song:

Gerua means Ochre or Orange to keep it simple…even a bit saffrony. So colour me in the colour of love. pic.twitter.com/9N0HTH4niz

Where I meet u,away from the sun,slipping thru the shade,a moment pauses,the sky melts into a mirror & sets within it:forming ur face.#Gerua

#Gerua is the color of sunrise. Signifies Enlightenment. Name comes from a redish stone called Geru. Shiva's body was covered in its paste.
