“I simply loved the groove.” Sumit said to the IANS while explaining the reasons behind his choice of selecting this specific song from a wide list of hits from the late singer. Paras, who rewrote some portions of the song to give it a contemporary tweak, mentioned that the music composing duo chose Sona Mohapatra because of her strong vocals and voice that is akin to the late singer/actress.

While it had been known that the film was being shot in Kashmir, the plot remained unknown. However, the trailer suggests a story about a young Pakistani girl who accidentally crosses the border into the unknown territory of Indian-held Kashmir, only to be helped by a man with a heart of gold, none other than ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ himself who as the name suggests is a follower of the Hindu God Bajrangbali or Hanuman.

Rekha abandons Fitoor and is quickly replaced by Tabu
Veteran actress Rekha, whose beauty Bollywood swears by and whose acting
While various sources close to the film have cited different reasons for the actress’s departure such as her unhappiness with the way her character turned out, the real reason according to reports by Daily News and Analysis (DNA) seems to be creative differences between Rekha and the director of the film, Abhishek Kapoor.
According to the report, an actor who’s a part of Fitoor was quoted saying, “They just couldn’t see eye-to-eye on how Rekha’s character was to be interpreted. Abhishek had one image in mind, Rekha had another. They were working at cross-purposes. Neither party was happy with the end results.”

Fitoor was expected to hit the screens in December of this year but has now been delayed till February 2016. The film is being produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur, and stars Katrina Kaif and Aditya Roy Kapur as main leads.
