I am wondering what was the brief given to the gifted Director Gifty for the song Urvashi. T-Series has tried to recreate the cult classic by A.R. Rehman and Prabhdeva with Honey Singh and Shahid Kapoor. Did they first decide on the song or did they have Big Boy Toyz, Hungama and Boat approach T-Series for their brand promotion, so,...

R.D. Burman created 4 different songs on 1 hit tune, Anu Malik, Anand Milind and many...

It's definitely off to a good start and the animated title sequence of around 1 min which comes after firecrackers...
