Yash Raj Films have retained the controversial orange bikini scene in the song ‘Besharam Rang’ but made minor changes.
“Pathaan” ‘s first song’ Besharam Rang’ surrounding Deepika Padukone’s orange bikini, made the headlines. While fans loved her in the bold avatar, the social media section criticized the makers for choosing a ‘saffron’ bikini.
In a recent video shared by Yash Raj Films, Deepika revealed she worked extra hard for “Besharam Rang.”
“For Besharam Rang, I had to work a lot harder. That’s sort of, in a way, my solo song. The location we were shooting at was tough. Even though the piece looked summery, bright, and beautiful, it was freezing and extremely windy. So we were working in harsh conditions, and still making it look gorgeous and sunny was the tricky part,” she said.
The actress also talked about sharing the screen and dancing with SRK and mentioned how both are ‘kind of dancers that don’t worry about the technicality of a step.’ She also talked about both the songs being ‘hit’ even before the film’s release and explained that the credit for it goes to the entire team.
Directed by Siddharth Anand, Pathaan stars Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham in pivotal roles, along with Dimple Kapadia and Ashutosh Rana.
The spy-thriller movie was released in the theatres on January 25, 2023. A special film screening took place on Tuesday night at the YRF office, with the team of Pathaan coming together to watch it. Pictures from the screening revealed that the cast was in their best spirits as they posed for photos with each other.
