Fanney Khan behind-the-scenes video offers a glimpse into Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's kidnapping scene

A video showcasing the making of musical drama  Fanney Khan , the Hindi adaptation of the Oscar-nominated Dutch film Everybody’s Famous!, opens with Anil Kapoor, surrounded by a local band, singing and dancing with the energy of a true Bollywood hero on stage. A new poster showing the various facades of the film was also released today.

The video also goes behind-the-scenes on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan channeling the glamorous pop star she will appear as in the film. Bachchan is shown shooting for the dance number ‘Mohabbat’ , choreographed by Frank Gatson Jr as well as when she is kidnapped, gagged and tied down to a chair.

Rajkummar Rao is shown as Abhir, the kidnapper, and he wants to be a film producer. However, he eventually ends up bound to the chair. Divya Dutta plays Kapoor’s wife Kavita, shown as a supportive mother to Lata, who is an aspiring singer and performer (played by Pihu Sand). Debutant director Atul Manjrekar is also shown in action, guiding the actors to perfect a shot.

Kapoor and Bachchan will be seen sharing the screen space after a gap of 17 years on Fanney Khan. The film is co-produced by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, Anil Kapoor Film & Communication Network and T-Series. It is scheduled for release on 3 August.
