| Ranbir Kapoor as a singer... By Webmaster, 27 June, 2008 |
 Siddharth Anand will start shooting for a promotional music video for his film, Bachna Ae Haseeno, today.The video is loosely based on Hum Kisi Se Kam Nahin's classic song Bachna ae haseeno lo main aa gaya, featuring Ranbir's father Rishi Kapoor. The title song in the new film was initially sung by the lead actor Ranbir Kapoor. However, the result was not satisfactory and the song was later sung by Kishore Kumar's son Sumeet. Incidentally, the original song was sung by Kishore Kumar. Siddharth is quite diplomatic about the situation. He says, "We tried Ranbir's voice for the track. He has a nice voice, but we were in a hurry to wrap up and so decided not to make the song gimmicky by taking on Ranbir as the singer." The video will have Ranbir along with his leading ladies, Bipasha Basu, Minissha Lamba and Deepika Padukone. Apparently, even Rishi Kapoor is expected to feature in it. Siddharth laughs and says, "I'm too scared to ask him. The only time Yash Raj has done a special music video is for Dhoom . It's the project that determines the promotion." Siddharth says that the original song's opening has been retained. He says, "We have used the opening track from Hum Kissi Se Kam Nahin 's song by Kishoreda. Sumeet has sung the rest of the song as an original composition. Considering the fact that Kishoreda's son has sung for Chintuji's (Rishi) son, it will be quite a nostalgic trip." The director insists that the rest of the track has been completely re-worked by Vishal-Shekhar. Siddharth says, "It's not a remix. The track is inspired by the original song." Ahmed Khan will choreograph the video. |
