Bhaag Johnny will launch its first song today, Daddy Mummy,picturised on lead actor Kunal Kemmu and the sizzling Urvashi Rautela. What makes the film team upbeat about this number is that it is a Hindi version of a Tamil chartbuster created by Devi Sri Prasad that went viral.

Sensing the potential of this South Indian hit number, Bollywood producer and music baron Bhushan Kumar, producer ofBhaag Johnny, acquired the rights for his Shivam Nair-directed movie that also features Zoa Morani and Mandana Karimi.

Gifty, who has directed many Yo Yo Honey Singh songs like'Desi Kalakaar', has also directed this number,the lyrics of which have been written by Kumaar. Devi Sri Prasad and MM Manasi have sung it.

Urvashi attributes bagging the song to her good equation with the producers. "I've previously worked with them for the song'Love Dose', and I also have a three-film deal with them. When I heard that Gifty will be at the helm, I knew I had to do it. More so after all the praise I had heard about him from Honey while shooting'Love Dose'," says Urvashi, who describes the'Daddy Mummy'number as super-hot. The actress, who is trained in various dance forms - bharatnatyam, kathak, jazz, ballet and belly dancing - says the film producers were aware of her dancing skills and they wanted someone who they felt would do justice to the moves. "It's a hardcore dance number, requiring high energy and at the same time, it is very stylised,'' enthuses Urvashi, who borrowed inspiration from Jennifer Lopez and Katy Perry for her look in this sultry number.


Interestingly, they didn't really rehearse until the day of shoot. This helped Kunal and her to be a lot more spontaneous. Besides performing hardcore moves, Urvashi says she also gave choreography inputs for the song that was shot in just one-and-a-half days. "It's a proper Gifty track in every sense," she says. About working with Kunal, she says, "It was good working with Kunal though our interaction was limited to just a couple of days when the actual shoot was taking place.''

Optimistic about the song, she says, "It's connectivity is not just limited to the South, but it is likely to work with music buffs across India.'' Bhaag Johnny,produced by Super Cassettes Industries Pvt. Ltd., releases September 25.
