National, 24 April 2023: Beverage brand, Mountain Dew® today unveiled a path-breaking anthem brought to life by Punjabi singer and youth icon, Guru Randhawa. The captivating anthem is an ode to the land of courage, Punjab and celebrates the indomitable spirit of Punjabis, custodians of courage themselves. An extension of Mountain Dew®’s mantra of ‘Darr Ke Aage Jeet Hai’, the anthem epitomizes the unstoppable, inextinguishable, and valiant persona of the people of Punjab and echoes the sentiment of conquering every fear with grit and determination.
The riveting anthem titled ‘Darr Nu Darra’ is a homage to the Punjabis, who pride themselves on their courage and truly personify the essence of ‘fear itself should fear the courageous’. Chiming in an encouraging wordplay with ‘Hum Darr Se Aage, Darr Humse Bhaage’, the gripping musical number exemplifies the unwavering passion of the land of Punjab and the power that resides with its youth - one that allows them to conquer their fears and follow their dreams with irrepressible self-belief. Standing by them with the energy of ‘Jeet Le’, the song inspires an entire generation to move beyond hate and fear, to rise above and be courageous.
The anthem launch is accompanied by a music video featuring musical sensation Guru Randhawa and stirring visuals from Punjab itself that reflects the unwavering, vivacious, and stout-hearted spirit of the youth that never backs down from a challenge, come what may. To amplify the anthem across the state, Mountain Dew will also be unveiling promo packs in Punjab that will offer 150 ml free on the purchase of a 250 ml PET bottle.
The upbeat and vibrant anthem is set to become an inspirational number for generations to come, as it strikes a chord with anyone who has ever faced a challenge or obstacle in their lives. From the gripping music score by Sneha Khanwalkar, to the soul-stirring vocals by Guru Randhawa to the hard-hitting lyrics of the song penned by Irshad Kamil celebrating Punjab’s strong-will and free-spirit, the anthem has already garnered millions of views on YouTube and Instagram within hours of its release.
Speaking on the anthem, Vineet Sharma, Category Director, Mountain Dew, PepsiCo India said, “Mountain Dew has always inspired youth to conquer their fears with courage, and win!
