The first song of Homi Adajania’s much anticipated film Finding Fanny will be released today. What’s very interesting about the song Fanny Re is that Homi has convinced his stellar cast, which includes Deepika Padukone, Arjun Kapoor, Pankaj Kapur, Naseeruddin Shah and Dimple Kapadia to shoot a quirky music video – that is on the lines of the texture of the film. Homi roped in choreographer Shiamak Davar for this video that has the cast doing a freewheeling dance number.
“Shooting the song Fanny Re was a laugh! Shiamak saw a few scenes and I told him to stay true to the tone of the film. He laughed saying that he wouldn’t have to do anything. It was a reunion of sorts for the cast, with Deepika, Naseer, Arjun, Pankaj and Dimple back together having a blast and freewheeling.I still can’t get over Dimple’s frenzied ‘prosthetic’ bum shake move. It’s hilarious!” says Homi.
Shiamak adds, “I’ve known Homi for years so the level of comfort I share with him reflected on the sets while shooting Fanny Re. It was great fun choreographing the video. And through the choreography, I wanted to bring out each one’s character and their own personality. For me, this was one of the most fun videos I’ve worked on!”
Finding Fanny will be released in Hindi and English. A quirky comedy, it narrates the story of five oddballs who venture out in search of Stefanie Fernandes (Fanny). The film traces their journey as the characters find meaning to their otherwise pointless lives. The film is set to hit the theatres on September 12.
So while we wait for the first song to come out, here listen to the audio teaser of Fanny Re and tell us if you are excited to hear the full version of this song, which will be out real soon.
