Pardesiya Fever: Sidharth & Janhvi's love anthem is here & it was worth the wait

After much anticipation, the first track from Param Sundari, titled Pardesiya, is finally here, and it’s everything fans had hoped for and more. Unveiled by Maddock Films and featuring the much-awaited pairing of Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor, the romantic ballad has quickly climbed the popularity charts, becoming an instant favourite among Bollywood music lovers.

Set against the lush green tea plantations of Kerala, Pardesiya is a visual and emotional delight. The video opens with a tender exchange between the lead pair, setting the tone for a love story that feels both fresh and timeless. What truly elevates the song is the soulful voice of legendary singer Sonu Nigam, whose vocals carry a beautiful blend of nostalgia and warmth, instantly transporting listeners back to the golden era of early 2000s romantic Bollywood tracks.

Sidharth and Janhvi’s chemistry is the undeniable highlight of the song. While Sidharth steps away from his recent action-hero image to return to his soft, romantic side, Janhvi mesmerizes in a series of elegant sarees and natural beauty that lights up the screen. Together, they bring a spark that has fans showering social media with compliments and heart emojis.

Musically, Pardesiya strikes the perfect balance between melody and emotion. It continues Bollywood’s current streak of heartfelt originals following Metro… In Dino, Aap Jaisa Koi, and Saiyaara. With its lilting composition and meaningful lyrics, the track reaffirms that Bollywood can still deliver songs that stir emotions and stay with you long after they end.

Meanwhile, the makers have also revealed that Param Sundari, a romantic tale set against the backdrop of a North-meets-South cultural dynamic, will hit cinemas on August 29. Sharing the update on Instagram, the film’s team wrote: “Where North’s fire meets South’s grace, it calls for the biggest love story of the year.” With Pardesiya setting the perfect tone, the buzz around Param Sundari has only gotten louder.
