The first song from Pathaan, Besharam Rang, is set to drop on Monday. The team has released a new image of Deepika Padukone in a yellow bikini from the track. Deepika plays a spy in Pathaan and has been paired opposite lead Shah Rukh Khan. The film also stars John Abraham as the antagonist.
Director Siddharth Anand says, “Deepika Padukone, apart from being a fantastic actor who has grown with each film, is also the hottest actress of our country. Casting her for the character in the film was as organic as it could get. She can be vulnerable and yet very, very sexy just effortlessly. So, when you have her in the film, you have to present her in a way that does complete justice to her.”
He adds, “I wanted to present her in her most glam avatar ever. That became a mission for the team and me. So, for Besharam Rang, when she is in a visually stunning coastal town of Europe, dancing with Shah Rukh Khan, we decided to just maximise how hot DP could look on screen! And the result will be unveiled when you see this amazing song.”
SRK and Deepika last worked together in Om Shanti Om, Chennai Express and Happy New Year. The actors shot for Besharam Rang in Mallorca., Spain. Pathaan is set to release on January 25 next year.
