The song picturises Shah Rukh Khan playing guitar and strolling across famous London landmarks including Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden, Canary Wharf and Southbank.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan song Challa, composed by music maestro AR Rahman was released on YouTube and received nearly 320,000 views in just over 24-hours. It has received 2.5 million hits in seven days.

The song showing Shah Rukh Khan in a blue check shirt and a guitar saddling on his shoulder is reminiscent of his character Raj from Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge.

Katrina Kaif makes a brief appearance towards the second half of the song. Wearing a yellow dress and a burnt orange trench coat and boots, Katrina (playing the character Khushi) passes a happy Samar and smiles at him. Shah Rukh’s character is enchanted with Katrina’s character and the song ends there.
