- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,February 15 2014]
The brand new music video of Patakha Guddi from ÂHighway sung by A. R. Rahman is out now. A song of many firsts, it shows A. R. Rahman singing in Punjabi and featuring alongside a girl, for the first time, ever. The lucky girl is none other than the charming Alia Bhatt.
The female version of the song which was sung by the Nooran sisters, got a resplendent touch in the male version, with RahmanÂs soulful voice. The addictive track is sure to be played on a loop in everyoneÂs playlist. The video shows A.R. Rahman sitting on a cot with musicians, swaying to the music, and Alia sitting, leaning against a truck. Another scene shows them looking carefree, sitting at the back of the very truck, which was used for filming Highway across several states.
The shoot was an ecstatic one, where the crew was seen soaking in the early evening sun and the addictive beats, with the lyrics perfectly complimenting the moment. Styled by Aki Narula, the video has Rahman looking effortlessly stylish, wearing a brown shirt underneath the grey ÂHighway jacket. Alia, who is all smiles, is seen wearing skinny jeans and a black leather jacket, adding her charisma to the music video.
Lucky girl Alia also sang a recently released song for ÂHighwayÂ. Under RahmanÂs guidance, a soft, beautiful lullaby, ÂSooha SahaÂ, was born. The soothing song became the first, ever, for the petite beauty, and that too with the ace composer A. R. Rahman.
Highway, produced by Imtiaz AliÂs Window Seat Films and presented by Sajid Nadiadwala, will be released worldwide by UTV Motion Pictures, on 21st February, 2014.
