Now a new song titled 'Kangan Ruby' has been released earlier today and featured the two leads of the film dancing together to a rather romantic and melodious song sung by Himesh Reshammiya to the lyrics written by Irshad Kamil. The video itself looks magnificent with its colorful set pieces and the extras that breathe life into the location/set.

The film depicts the story of love, happiness, family, and the unbreakable bond that binds brothers and sisters. The story revolves around Akshay Kumar who plays the character of Lala Kedarnath. Hailing from a middle-class family and being the elder brother to 4 sisters, Lala does his best to keep them happy and fulfill their basic needs. He promises his dying mother that he will only get married once he has provided for all his sisters. In comes his childhood love Sapna (Bhumi Pednekar) which causes a lot of hiccups on the personal front as his sisters stand as a huge roadblock for his and Sapna's love story to take off. Understanding the importance of Lala's vow, Sapna decides to wait till his goal is achieved.
