The young stars then introduced called on the leading pair on stage along with their director Rohit Shetty and their cast members.
At the launch, Varun and Kriti took the stage first and put up a dance performance to pay tribute to Shah Rukh and Kajol’s love songs from past films.
This video pieced together all the pictures and videos of the shoot that made their way online.
The 4-minute song was shot in Iceland, in sub-zero temperatures for over a week.
The song features the lead pair SRK and Kajol painting the town with the colours of love.
Within hours of it’s release, the song garnered in over five hundred thousand views and is romping it’s way to the 1 million mark.
The proofs in the number of views it received, since its launch last night.
The song, that was believed to be the love track of the year, lived up to everyone’s expectations.
Maratha Mandir saw a housefull audience as team ‘Dilwale’ assembled to launch their first love song from the film.
The makers of the film picked the iconic theatre, as it is the only single screen in the country that still runs ‘DDLJ’ shows everyday for the past 1000 weeks.
If the film's trailer didn't woo you over, this song will surely send you camping outside theatres waiting for December 18, to catch the film.
On public demand it was played 4 times at the theatre.
To that, Shah Rukh said, "They are beautiful people and great co-actors. One needs to have a heart to say all this."
At a recent 'Tamasha' event, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone expressed that Shah Rukh has a palang todh chemistry with Kajol
He further stated, "Me and Kajol have a special bond, we are not even friends, we care for each other. In fact we never perceive the chemistry on screen the way audience do."
While 'DDLJ' is still running in the theaters, SRK hopes that 'Dilwale' will break its record.
Shah Rukh added, "Shooting for this song was very difficult, in one of the scenes Rohit tied both of us with the ropes on the cliff. We shot on a crashed plane, which is a monument now. Recently Justin Bieber also shot there."
When asked the two about shooting the song in beautiful locations, Kajol said, "Shooting at Iceland was very challenging, we were freezing. In fact any location shot in 'Geruha' is not liveable and I don't want to get stranded anywhere."
Be it 'Tujhe Dekha To Yeh Jaana Sanam' or 'Suraj Hua Maddham', the couple has always made their fans fall in love. But shooting this love song was the big challenge for the two.
'Geruha' song looks promising as it revived the charm of Shah Rukh and Kajol's romance on screen.
Shah Rukh was how he managed to woo all the ladies, he blushed and replied, "I am very free, so I give all my time to lovely ladies."
The questions ranged from dating tips to asking the stars about their time on the sets.
After a short question-answer round, the song was played on the theatre screen for the audience.
