Prem's back! Salman in Bollywood's 'longest song' ever for Barjatya's next

Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya have worked together in 3 blockbuster films: Maine Pyaar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hai Kaun and Hum Saath Saath Hai. A large part of the first half of these films include tedious introductory sequences. For example, Hum Saath Saath Hai has a long musical-like sequence introducing a new bride to all the family members. [caption id=“attachment_1757927” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Salman Khan.

According to reports, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, Barjatya’s new film will have a song that is 13 minutes long. Starring Sonam Kapoor and bhai himself, a report by DNA has revealed that the film has a 13 minute long song that allegedly “takes the story ahead.” The song features Salman playing football. “There is a 13-minute song in PRDP, which I have choreographed for. It is the longest song in Bollywood ever,” said choereographer Ahmed Khan, according to DNA. He rubbishes rumours of it being a part of a larger antakshari scene (a specialty of Sooraj Barjatya films) or a medley either (another specialty). “Salman will be seen playing football at a marriage ceremony. He has danced in the song in a different attire altogether. He will be dancing in kurta and pyjamas and the entire feel and vibe of the song is totally different. There’s a unique magic to the number,” Khan added. This isn’t the first record the director-actor duo hold. Hum Apke Hai Kaun had a total of 14 songs in their soundtrack, making it the highest number in any Bollywood film. Football for 13 mins? Nothing Salman Khan can’t handle.
