Shah Rukh and Hrithik - B-town’s new item boys
By Joginder Tuteja Bollywood Hungama News Network
In a unique experiment which is certainly one of it’s kind, two top
actors would be dancing to the tunes of the same song, though
presented in different versions. The film in question is Krazzy 4 and
the men who would be shaking their legs are Shah Rukh Khan and
Hrithik Roshan.
Confirms Vishal Dadlani (of Vishal-Shekhar fame), who is fast
becoming one of the preferred singers in Bollywood, “The track has
been composed in two versions with one each reserved for Shah Rukh
and Hrithik. I have sung both the versions.”
While one version of the song would be appearing within the film,
another would appear as a part of end credits roll. Adds Vishal, “The
song is a mix of hip-hop and rock and should do really well with the
younger generation.”
Talking about how the song fell in his lap, Vishal reveals, “I am a big
fan of Rajesh Roshan brand of music. How can one ever forget that he
is the man behind ‘Dil Kya Kare Jab Kisi Se Kisi Ko Pyaar Ho Jaaye’
from Julie? The song stays on to be one of my all time favorites. This
is why when Rakesh Roshan gave me a call and said that he wanted me
to sing for a Rajesh Roshan composition, I was game for it.”
For Shah Rukh Khan, this would be his yet another item song special
appearance in recent times after ‘Mast Kalandar’ (Heyy Babyy) and
‘Kaal Dhamaal’ (Kaal). He also had a few ‘blink and you would miss’
shots reserved for him in Arjun Rampal’s I See You where he held the
guitar for the song ‘Subah Subah’. On the other hand, for Hrithik, this
would be his first ever experience as an item boy, though just like Shah
Rukh Khan, he too had made a fleeting appearance in ‘Subah Subah’.
Directed by debutant, Jaideep Sen, Krazzy 4 is a comedy which
revolves around four crazy men Arshad Warsi, Irrfan Khan, Rajpal
Yadav and Suresh Menon. Juhi Chawla is the doctor in charge for
treating them all. Apart from Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan in
guest appearances, the film also stars Dia Mirza, Rajat Kapoor, Zakir
Hussain, Sunil Pal, Makrand Deshpande and Mukesh Rishi.
Incidentally, Rakhi Sawant also makes a special appearance in the
movie for an item song.
Item boys in recent times:
- Sanjay Dutt in to be released thriller Woodstock Villa which marks
the debut of Sikandar Kher. Sanjay Dutt recently shot for this music
video by the band ‘Aryan’.
- Tusshar Kapoor in Rohit Shetty directed Sunday. He dances to
Raghav Sachar’s tune of ‘Manzar’.
- Abhishek Bachchan in Ram Gopal Varma directed Ram Gopal Varma
Ki Aag. He had accompanied his dad in Ganesh Hegde’s ‘Mehbooba
Mehbooba’.
- Amitabh Bachchan in Shaad Ali’s Jhoom Barabar Jhoom. Coupled
with his role as a ’sutradhar’, he made stars half his age pale in
comparison as he joined the item boys’ gang.
