Subhash K. Jha: Ranbir Kapoor’s post-”Saawariya” project, a romantic musical for Yash Raj Films, had been struggling to find an appropriate title. Finally, it has one - “Bachna Ae Haseenon”, which harks back to his father’s chartbuster.
“But I don’t think we decided to name the film ‘Bachna Ae Haseenon’ to suggest a link with my past. Sure, the song was a big R.D. Burman chartbuster in its time. My dad, mom and I are all huge fans of RDB,” Ranbir told IANS.
“My parents’ biggest hits were composed by him. But more than the instant connectivity, I think the title was selected because it’s very apt for my film. It’s about this guy’s journey in life and his different encounters with various women,” he added.
The film, which has the young superstar courting Bipasha Basu, Minissha Lamba and Deepika Padukone, is 60 percent complete and is expected to open Aug 15.
Apart from acting, Ranbir has another passion, but not too many people know about it. It came out in the open when Bollywood played a charity benefit match against a professional team of soccer players at the Abhijeet Kadam Memorial Football Cup tournament in Pune.
Most clearly Ranbir was man of the match. He not only surprised the spectators and his colleagues with his expertise at the game but came home to Mumbai triumphant, having scored four out of the seven goals scored by the Bollywood team.
Suniel Shetty, who was present at the match, just can’t stop raving about Ranbir, who walked away with the best male debutant at Filmfare for his performance in “Saawariya”.
