Composer trio Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy increased the length of a peppy song "Mauka" from Prakash Jha's forthcoming film "Aarakashan", after which the production house had to work on additional patchwork shoot for it.

The patchwork shoot was conducted a month after the film's shooting was wound up in Bhopal, according to a source.

Explaining the need behind the song's extension, singer-composer Shankar said: "'Mauka' was not just about friends having fun and Deepika flirting with Saif. As always, Prakash sir had duality with his narrative."

"The song is also subliminal to the entire caste reservation system (the subject of the movie). We kept that in mind while making 'Mauka' and felt it required a certain time length," he added.

Jha is known for interweaving strong social subjects with commercial drama like "Rajneeti" and "Gangajal" - and that's just the blend he will present with "Aarakshan", releasing Aug 12. He hardly compromises on the creativity in his films, so he didn't hesitate before re-shooting the additional part of the song.
