When Priyank Sharma helped Sonnalli Seygall's secret admirer talk to her on the sets of Ishq Da Rog

Recently, the makers of the upcoming single, Ishq Da Rog, launched its teaser. The video features Priyank Sharma, Sonnalli Seygall and Saurabh Singh Rajput and is sung by Stebin Ben with music given by Asad Khan. But we hear that there were some secret wishes and crushes that finally were fulfilled on the sets of the song, and we can’t help but gush over the sweet story. 

Saurabh Singh Rajput, who makes his showbiz debut with Ishq Da Rog, has actually been Sonnalli Seygall’s ‘jabra fan’ and a secret admirer since her first Bollywood project. In fact, he confesses that Sonnalli is the sole reason that he auditioned to feature in the song. When he was informed that the producers were looking for a new face to feature opposite Sonnalli, he couldn't let this golden opportunity escape from his hands. 

Unfortunately, he couldn't audition in Mumbai due to unforeseen circumstances, but he didn’t lose hope and travelled especially to Dehradun to audition. The producers were visiting the hill station for the recce of their upcoming film 'Boondi Raita' and had a very busy schedule there. Post a 20-day long wait, Saurabh auditioned on the 21st day and bagged the role.

The music video finally fulfilled Saurabh’s wish to work with Sonnalli and also gave him the opportunity to talk to her. Even their co-star Priyank had his share of contribution in it. “I have had a secret crush on Sonnalli for the longest time. I knew Ishq Da Rog was my chance to know her and spend some time with her. Priyank knew that and he introduced me to her,” says Saurabh Singh Rajput, further adding, “I would like to thank A2R Films for giving me this golden chance.”

On his part in this sweet meeting, Priyank Sharma says, “I only got to know of Saurabh's admiration for Sonnalli when the shoot started. In fact, when he told me that he had a crush on her since years but never confessed it, I was shocked. So, I thought that the least I could do is to introduce them to one another.” 

A pleasantly surprised Sonnalli says, “It was really flattering to see the kind of admiration Saurabh has for me. It was really nice getting to speak with him and work with him. In all its entirety, it was a really sweet experience for me & I wish him all the best in life “

Producer of the song Rahul Sharma says, “A2R Films always believes in creating great content which can easily connect to viewers. In the past we have produced ‘Raanjhana’, a music video sung by Arijit Singh featuring Hina Khan with Priyank Sharma which was a big hit and ‘Ishq Da Rog’ is again a five-minute musical video with amazing performances by the entire team. Our upcoming film ‘Boondi Raita’ where Himansh Kohli and Sonnalli Seygall are playing the lead role with a well-known cast will hit the floors in November.” 

Director, Kamal Chandra says, “A perfect music video is a mixture of three elements – emotional story, lovely music and good lyrics and Ishq da rog is the mixture of all three which will definitely connect with the audience.”

The teaser of the song has created quite a stir on social media. There have been all sorts of speculations about the plot of the song, guess we have to wait for the makers to release the song on 21st October.
