Model-turned-actor Siddharth Malhotra has been in the spotlight ever since Karan Johar first unveiled plans for his upcoming movie, Student of the Year. The newcomer will make his first big-screen appearance in the movie. Siddharth Malhotra will star in the movie alongside Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan. Directed by Karan Johar, who will also be producing the movie under the Dharma Productions banner and Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment, Student of the Year will release on the 19th of October, 2012.

As for Siddharth Malhotra, this promising new face has worked as a model before, walking the runway for designers like Manish Arora, Manish Malhotra, Rohit Bal and the international design house Roberto Cavalli. He has also made an appearance as a child actor for the show Prithviraj Chauhan, and his upcoming film isn't the first time he has faced the camera. Making appearances at shows in Paris and Dubai, Siddharth Malhotra has also been featured on the covers of magazines like RedBook, Men's Health and Gladrags. A winner of the Gladrags Face of the Year 2009 award and the NDTV Model of the Year 2010, Siddharth Malhotra's knack for the big screen was recognized after working as an assistant director for Karan Johar's My Name is Khan.

A youth-centric anthem of sorts, the song's video also features the movie's lead actors Siddharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan portraying a care-free jolly-good life. In the video, the duo is shown partying, dancing and living life to the fullest. And that's not all this song has to boast. A fantastic composition with a catchy beat and a punchy bass-line to compliment it, Vele also has Vishal Dadlani expressing his rap-skills. Mixing and blending music styles like Bhangra, electronic and a dash of dub-step, the song has a bass-drop in the between that's bound to set the dance-floor ablaze.

Siddharth Malhotra gained recognition from Karan Johar while working as an assistant director to the filmmaker during the making of the movie, My Name Is Khan. The movie starred Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol and was based on the prejudice faced by Indians living in the United States after the 9-11 attacks. After training as a director and being mentored by Karan Johar, Siddharth Malhotra directed his first film, We Are Family. Based on the Hollywood movie called Stepmom, the film was produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions and was released in 2010.

The film Student of the Year is set apart from the usual trend of movies directed by Karan Johar. This will also be Karan's first without his lucky mascot Shah Rukh Khan, with the director using newcomers instead.
