Salman Khan-Sonam Kapoor-starrer Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (PRDP) is all set to launch its first song, 'Prem leela', today.

Filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya is releasing the film's track, based on Ram-Leela, much before it was expected, as a gift to the audience prior to the commencement of Navratri and as a treat for Dussehra.

Interestingly,this song features during Salman's introductory scene in the movie. This continues the superstar's recent trend of making his entry in his films with catchy numbers as against the generic star entry. Case in point being his last releaseBajrangi Bhaijaan, where in his first scene, he was seen as a devotee of Lord Hanuman in the song 'Selfie le le re'.

The family entertainer also marks Salman's return to his most loved character, Prem. This time around, his name is Prem Dilwale.

Talking about the song, Sooraj says, "I specially asked Himeshji (Reshammiya) to compose 'Prem leela' for Salmanbhai. This song underlines his character's innocence and large-heartedness. I was completely smitten by this track and am really glad with the way it has turned out."

The first trailer of the movie created a record of sorts within 24 hours of its launch, reportedly registering over 5 million views. Since then, it has been going strong, clocking over twice as many hits already.
