Varun Dhawan celebrates his birthday with ‘Wow’ from his upcoming film, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. It is a vibrant dance track packed with energy and star power!

From its opening beats, ‘Wow’ leans fully into celebration mode. The composition moves at a fast pace without losing control, allowing the music to remain catchy instead of chaotic. TanishkBagchi, along with lyricists RonyAjnali and Gill Machhrai, creates a sound that blends commercial Bollywood flavour with a polished modern dance production. The track understands its purpose very well. It does not attempt emotional depth or layered storytelling. Instead, it focuses on pure entertainment and executes it with confidence. Much of the song’s appeal comes from the chemistry between Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur, and Pooja Hegde. Especially Varun appears completely in his comfort zone here. His effortless screen presence and energetic dance moves give the track its pulse. There is a natural ease in the way he performs, and that quality keeps the song engaging from start to finish. Mrunal and Pooja bring elegance and glamour to the visuals while matching the upbeat mood perfectly. Together, the trio creates the kind of visual chemistry that makes commercial dance numbers memorable.
The vocals by Harrdy Sandhu and Kiran Bajwa also deserve credit for elevating the song beyond a standard promotional track. Harrdy’s energetic delivery adds swagger and attitude, while Kiran’s voice balances the composition with a refreshing texture. Their voices complement the rhythm naturally, helping the hook stay in your head long after the song ends. The chorus is particularly effective because of its simplicity and high-energy execution. Sharing the music video on Instagram, Varun described it as his “birthday jam,” giving fans a glimpse into his excitement around the release. He wrote in the caption, “My birthday jam is Wow. So excited about this track thankful to all my people for making this birthday wow. #WOWItsVarunDay #HaiJawaniTohIshqHonaHai in cinemas on 22nd May 2026.”
That excitement translates clearly onto the screen. The choreography keeps the momentum alive throughout the track and avoids becoming repetitive, which often happens with large-scale dance numbers. Every frame appears designed to maximise energy, from the lighting choices to the costume styling and set design. The visuals stay glossy without overshadowing the music itself. Producer Kumar Taurani reflected on what makes the track work, saying, “Good music finds its audience, you can’t force that. What we had here was the right combination from the start. Harrdy, Tanishq, Kiran, Rony and Gill each bring something distinct, and together they give this track a range that’s hard to manufacture. Add Varun, Mrunal, and Pooja to the visual and it just completes the picture.”
That statement captures the biggest strength of ‘Wow’. The song succeeds because every contributor understands the assignment. Nobody tries to overpower the track. The vocals, choreography, visuals, and composition all work together smoothly, creating a final product that is cohesive instead of manufactured. Singer Harrdy Sandhu also shared his experience of working on the song, adding, “From the first listen, Wow had that spark. It’s high on energy and super addictive the kind of song you don’t just hear, you feel. Recording this with the bunch of amazing creative collaborators was an absolute blast.”
Directed by David Dhawan, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai appears to embrace the classic Bollywood formula of comedy, romance, and drama with a modern presentation style. If ‘Wow’ is any indication, the film is aiming for a full-scale entertainer experience!
