Yes, you heard that right! The Shaandaar crew consumed about 137 espresso coffee shots to stay awake all night to shoot the song 'Neend na mujhko aaye'.

The song in question was shot over a period of 4 days, each day the crew would consume a high dose of caffeine to shoot throughout the night.


The song involved about 60 crew members shooting throughout the night along with the film's star cast.
The song is a  recreated version of the popular track from the 1958 film Post Box 999, Neend Na Mujhko Aaye (picturised on Sunil Dutt and Shakeela).
The Shaandaar version of the popular track is recreated by Mikey McCleary and picturised on Alia and Shahid.

The song is to feature the brewing love story between both the insomniacs played by Shahid and Alia.

As the song has a long standing history with coffee, the makers of Shaandaar are to launch the track 'Neend na mujhko aaye' at midnight on October 8th in a coffee shop.

The film has generated a lot of buzz with the release of each of its music tracks and Neend na mujhko aaye seems to be one of the latest addition to this trend.

The films posters, trailer and songs have garnered immense appreciation from audiences who eagerly await its release.


Vikas Bahl directorial, Shaandaar is all set to release on 22nd of October, 2015.

News is that the two insomniacs, Jagjinder and Alia are to meet tomorrow, midnight for some unfinished business.

The duo have decided to meet in the suburbs in the early hours of the night.

The topic of discussion is a mystery, however the presence of the duo is confirmed by the sources.
It is a known fact that they both suffer from insomnia.

Yesterday, Shahid and Alia launched the song with the film's director Vikas Bahl as the duo treated newspersons to a live performance that set the stage on fire.

Based against the backdrop of the Shaandaar wedding, the film is an out-and-out youthful love story focussing on two characters Alia (played by Alia Bhatt) and Jagjinder Joginder (played by Shahid). Alia's father Bipin (played by Pankaj Kapur) adds the twist to their romance as he believes there’s no guy that will be good enough for his daughter while Alia is a dreamer. Jagjinder Joginder is a doer and he feels he can make anything happen! And for obvious reasons Bipin hates Jagjinder Joginder.

Presented by Fox Star Studios, Shaandaar is produced by Dharma Productions and Phantoms Films.

Shaandaar releases on October 22, 2015, Dussehra date.

Old or New.. Whats your pick?

Experts say that fresh pairs and hit jodis will keep Bollywood’s cash register ringing this season



A flurry of Bollywood films with never-seen-before lead pairs will release in the next two months, while the festive season will see a bunch of big-budget films with tried and tested pairs on screen. 


And experts feel that the mix will help the box office garner big revenue.


The fresh pairs include Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif, who will be seen in Kabir Khan’s next, Kangana Ranaut and Imran Khan as well as John Abraham and Shruti Haasan in the sequel of the hit film Welcome (2007). 


Among the existing hit jodis, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone in Tamasha, Ranveer Singh and Deepika in Bajirao Mastani and Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in Dilwale, will be back on celluloid to recreate magic.


Talking about how a fresh pair helps a film, trade analyst Atul Mohan says, “The audience today wants everything to be new – be it scripts, storyline or the actors. A new pair creates extra interest that translates into more business.” 


Trade analyst Komal Nahta adds, “The audience wants an entire package, only the hero and heroine can’t pull off a film. However, during the festive season when big budget films release, a tried and tested pair works better.”


Filmmaker Sabbir Khan, who has worked with both newcomers and hit pairs, says: “Obviously, both have their pros and cons but I get excited when a film with a fresh pair releases. However, I don’t mind watching SRK and Kajol together.” 


Shashank Khaitan, who directed Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania (2014), cast actors Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan after their first hit Student of the Year (2012), says, “If a hit pair doesn’t suit the script, it can backfire. Actors are moving out of their comfort zones and there will only be more experiments now.”

With some help from his two best friends, he finds out all about her and through an interesting turn of events (including a ploy to save Kavya’s friend Gurpreet’s marriage), they start growing closer to each other.
