A song that Salman Khan wanted to use for Tere Naam has been included in Sanam Teri Kasam, co-directed by his Lucky: No Time for Love makers Vinay Sapru and Radhika Rao, who now say it was their way of adding the actor’s ‘lucky charm’ to their film.
On Wednesday, Salman had tweeted:
Directors of my film Lucky n Sanam Teri Kasam churaud my song from Himesh. lovely song Had selected it for Tere Naam.
Asked about it, Mr Sapru told IANS that ‘it’s the first song that appears in the film.’
“Salman Khan is our mentor, so we do all our work keeping Salman informed about it. But as a project, we had not discussed Sanam Teri Kasam with him. When we were discussing it and were showing everything that we have done in the film, Haal-e-dil came up, and he said, ‘This is my song!’ He got a little upset about it,” Mr Sapru said.
He added that music director Himesh Reshammiya had told him that the song’s tune was first finalised by Salman for the 2003 film Tere Naam, which also starred Bhumika Chawla.
“Not that we wanted to take this song, but when we were doing our music sitting with Himesh at that time, we finalised the first song of the film. There were two tunes to get finalised. But when Himesh said that this tune was finalised by Salman for Tere Naam, and he has kept another song that Salman could use it when he makes another tragic love story, we took this one.”
“Salman has been our lucky charm since we started our career, and we were very clear that by hook or by crook, we want Salman’s lucky charm in our film. So, we finalised that song.”
The director said that the 50-year-old actor was ‘upset’ but after seeing the song as part of Sanam Teri Kasam, ‘it almost brought tears to his eyes.’
Sanam Teri Kasam, which opens on Friday, stars Telugu actor Harshvardhan Rane and Pakistani actress Mawra Hocane who makes her Bollywood debut with the film.
