‘Shararat’ almost dropped from 'Dhurandhar', Aditya Dhar credits Vijay Ganguly for saving it
PTC Web Desk: Filmmaker Aditya Dhar has revealed that one of the most popular songs from his film Dhurandhar, titled Shararat, was nearly removed from the movie.
Speaking about it, Aditya Dhar said he was not sure about adding a lip-sync dance number in the film. But choreographer Vijay Ganguly convinced him to go ahead with it. That decision later turned out to be one of the highlights of the film.
Sharing pictures from the sets, Aditya praised Vijay for his work and called him an outstanding choreographer. He said Vijay understands music deeply and brings emotions to life through his choreography. He also mentioned that Vijay thinks like a director, which made things easier during filming.
Talking about the song, Aditya Dhar recalled that Vijay’s confidence gave both him and music composer Shashwat Sachdev the push they needed. Today, Shararat has become one of the most loved tracks from the film.
The song, sung by Madhubanti Bagchi and Jasmine Sandlas, features Ayesha Khan and Krystle D'Souza. It shows a wedding celebration of characters played by Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan and its dance step has gone viral on social media.
Aditya also appreciated Vijay’s positive attitude, saying his energy and excitement kept the team motivated even during tough shoots.
Meanwhile, Dhurandhar, a two-part spy thriller, has been doing record business at the box office. The first part, released in December, earned over Rs 1300 crore worldwide. The second part, which hit theatres on March 19, has already crossed Rs 1700 crore globally within weeks. The film also stars Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna and Rakesh Bedi in key roles.
