I want to get the page ID before starting the loop in Wordpress. I am using
$page = get_query_var('page_id');
But i returns nothing :(
Apparently I want to check for a page ID and add a class to <body> tag based on it.

@atif are you sure a page ID is in fact being passed? You don't happen to be on the front page?

A:
If you're using pretty permalinks, get_query_var('page_id') won't work.
Instead, get the queried object ID from the global $wp_query;
global $wp_query;
$page_object = $wp_query->get_queried_object();
$page_id = $wp_query->get_queried_object_id();
