Vidya & Naseeruddin play 'dirty' in oranges
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,July 26 2011]
These are the days of paying tribute to bygone years... Important incidents and personalities of yesteryears have become a source of inspiration for our filmmakers now. And one of them is Ekta Kapoor, who has been successful in recreating classic era through 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai'. Now she is all set to charm us again, this time brining up yesteryear reel sexy siren Silk Smitha in Milan Luthria's forthcoming biopic 'The Dirty Picture', where Vidya Balan plays the lead.
Movies then were quite colourful and so were the celebrities who had larger than life image. Elaborate settings, uniform choreography, highly decorative props-were part and parcel of old songs then. To match with the bygone era films, the director Milan Luthria recently ordered two truckloads of oranges for a sensational song sequence in 'The Dirty Picture'.
The track was picturised on Vidya Balan and Naseeruddin Shah and shot at Hyderabad's Ramoji Film City.
In true South style, over a thousand oranges were rolled down a hillside as the actors danced to choreographer Pony Verma's matkas and jhatkas - reminiscent of the erstwhile Jeetendra-starrer 'Himmatwala'!
In 'The Dirty Picture', Naseer, who plays a South Indian superstar, consented to dancing after 20 years, as it was in line with the requirements of his character. He was last seen dancing with Sonam in Rajiv Rai's smash hit, 'Tridev'.
