He took his fans by surprise with his video on July 13. The video was made in response to Hrithik Roshan’s birthday tweet for Singh, in which the Bang Bang star shared the music video of Shah’s original song and expressed his wish to see him “outdo it”.

“Happy happy @RanveerOfficial this especiall[y] 4 u on ur birthday day. One day I want u to outdo this,” Roshan wrote on the microblogging site along with a link to the music video.

As a response, Singh shared this tweet along with a link of his Dubsmash video: “I may never be able to outdo it ... But I can at least try :) only for you @iHrithik cuz I luv ya. #eyetoeye”.
