Shah Rukh Khan has collaborated with Grammy winner DJ Diplo for a song titled ‘Phurrr’ from Jab Harry met Sejal. The American rapper and singer has composed the song with Pritam and Rocky Wellstack for the film. Shah Rukh has earlier collaborated with international music sensation Akon for chartbuster ‘Chammak Challo from Ra.One.

Director Imtiaz Ali said, “It has a fresh energy and we imagined that the song starts soon after the Portugal football team won the UEFA Cup, an event we follow in the story. So there are lots of people celebrating on the streets. Diplo has known the world over for his singles and albums and it’s great to collaborate with him”. Earlier, Shah Rukh shared a picture of himself with Diplo in Los Angeles and wrote, “Walked into the video @diplo is making for Phurrr! Got a starring role in it & his Decent jacket. Wes u r dope! Thx.”

Diplo and Shah Rukh met in Goa last year when the latter was shooting for his film Dear Zindagi. Both hang out together and that resulted in their collaboration.

Meanwhile, the actor is in Los Angeles where he is spending some quality time with his kids. Some media reports suggest that he is there for his son Aryan’s surgery. However, nothing has been reported beyond that. But he is making sure he has some fun time too as we saw his posts about his visit to Universal Studios in LA, where he took AbRam for the first time. Sharing a picture of himself, he wrote, “Took the kids 2 @unistudios , this time AbRam’s turn. Thx for the hospitality & as always I am a wimp on the rides!”

Meanwhile, the actor has been actively promoting his film, Jab Harry Met Sejal. Before flying to LA, the actor was constantly on toes, touring from one city to another, to keep the buzz around the film going. While then Anushka Sharma was missing as she was spending time with Virat Kohli and then shot for a cameo in Sanjay Dutt’s biopic, now Shah Rukh would be giving a miss to the promotions for a while.

Recently, Imtiaz Ali went live on Twitter through Red Chillies Entertainment handle and spoke about his experience of working with Shah Rukh and Anushka. He said, “What I liked most about him is that he is very open to any kind of instruction and he follows them completely. Since both of us have a theater background, we understand each other very well and can do same things in different ways.”

Jab Harry Met Sejal will hit theaters on August 4.
