Shanaya Kapoor, the daughter of Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor, is one star kid whose Bollywood debut was the most anticipated one. It seems the patience has finally paid off as she enters the music space and marks her debut in the industry.
Just ahead of the release of her debut movie, Tu Yaa Main, which released its teaser in March, Shanaya debuted in a music video titled 'Vibe'.
Taking to her social media on Friday, Shanaya shared the good news along with a teaser of the song 'Vibe'. Her Instagram post caption read, ¡°My heart¡¯s in this track. My first global collab ¨C Vibe ¨C is OUT NOW!¡±
Shanaya Kapoor's first global collab with French Montana and Guru Randhawa
As the star kid already mentioned in her post that this is her first global collab, the track has been directed by Moroccan-American rapper French Montana and Indian singer Guru Randhawa, starring Shanaya Kapoor.
The 25-year-old debut actress looks gorgeous in the music video, and fans think she looks much like her mother and The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives actress Maheep Kapoor. If we talk about the lyrics of the song, it is groovy and is true to its title, 'Vibe'; it is full of vibe.
But the people online have mixed feelings about the music video, with some vibing with it, while others are not so much.
