The film stars Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur and Pooja Hegde.
The upbeat dance number features vocals by Harrdy Sandhu and Kiran Bajwa. It is composed by Tanishk Bagchi, Rony Ajnali and Gill Machhrai, with lyrics by Rony and Gill, as per a press release.
Speaking about the track, Kumar Taurani of Tips Music said in a statement, "Good music finds its audience, you can't force that. What we had here was the right combination from the start. Harrdy, Tanishk, 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."
Harrdy Sandhu added, "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."
Composer Tanishk Bagchi noted, "With WOW, the idea was to keep it contemporary, punchy, and irresistibly catchy. It's designed to make you move simple as that."
Produced by Ramesh Taurani and directed by veteran filmmaker David Dhawan, the upcoming entertainer promises a lively blend of romance and comedy. (ANI)
