"Tooh", a song composed by Vishal-Shekhar with lyrics by Anvita Dutt Guptan, is performed by playback singers Mika Singh and Mamta Sharma with backing vocals by Vishal Dadlani and Shruti Pathak. The song was the first single to be released digitally from the soundtrack of the 2013 film Gori Tere Pyaar Mein. The digital release was on 12 October 2013 in India. The music video was released on 9 October and launched on radio on 16 October.
A typical filmi song and item number, the song's video depicts the fun and humour that prevail at traditional Punjabi weddings.
In an interview with radio jockey, Anuraag Pandey, Vishal–Shekhar revealed that the soundtrack being the second collaboration between Malhotra and them—after 2010s I Hate Luv Storys, they were involved right composing tunes with the completion of each draft of the script from the beginning in their studio (located in Bandra, Mumbai) in presence of Malhotra. During one such session four tunes were composed, the first being the final one based on the opinion of several people; who were asked to present their verdict on the best one.
"Tooh" was written by Anvita Dutt Guptan and produced by Abhijit Nalani. It was recorded at Vishal–Shekhar's personal studio in Bandra, Mumbai by recording engineers, Satchith Harve, Abhishek Ghatak and, Gauvrav Gupta—with the tune being mixed by Shekhar Ravjiani himself—and mastering by Chris Gehringer at Sterling Sound, New York City. The cover was released alongside the single on 9 October 2013 in ITunes and features the film's lead actors; Khan and Kapoor wearing a black kurta and blue lehnga respectively dancing in a joyous mood.
