"I specially asked Himeshji (music director) to compose 'Prem leela' for Salman bhai. This song underlines his character's innocence and large-heartedness. I was completely smitten by this track and am really glad with the way it has turned out," filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya said, according to Times of India.
The #PremLeela hashtag has been trending since its release and more than 1,000,000 people have watched it already on Rajshree production house's official YouTube account.
