The first song from Ranveer Singh’s upcoming film Jayeshbhai Jordaar was released on Monday afternoon. Ranveer take to social media to claim the video for the song Firecracker, in which he dances and frolics around, appreciating the ‘firecracker’ in his life. Fans praised Ranveer’s portrayal of a simpleton Gujarati, saying he had “re-entered the skin” of his character.
The song’s video begins with Ranveer Singh’s character Jayesh. Dressed in his trademark shirt and trousers, dancing through a muddy street while women dressed in sarees with ghoonghats groove alongside. Ranveer then joins the women and dances as the song describes a firework in Jayesh’s life, represented by desi rappers. He then enters a large courtyard, dancing with hundreds of women and schoolgirls as the song continues to list the good qualities of this Firecracker.
Vishal Dadlani and Shekhar Ravjiani sang the song, which they also composed.
Kumaar and Vayu are the authors of the lyrics. Fans praised the song’s melody and Ranveer’s dance and energy in the video. “Vishal Dadlani’s powerful voice that slowly melts my heart in this song,” one fan said. Another fan praised the song, saying, “Amazing song, great masterpiece composed by Vishal-Shekhar.”
But it was Ranveer Singh who stole the show in the video. With many fans referring to him as a chameleon. “I can’t believe how easily he transforms into a role,” one fan said. It’s the same actor who played Khilji.” Others praised the actor for displaying his down-to-earth side. “He is a fantastic dancer, but he brings a more simple side to this dance as Jayeshbhjai.” “Amazing,” said one commenter.
Jayeshbhai Jordaar is a social comedy starring Ranveer Singh as a married man fighting to save his unborn daughter’s life. Ranveer plays an underdog in the film, which he has rarely played in his career.
