Watch: In Fanney Khan teaser, Rajkummar Rao explains the meaning behind the film's unique name

The teaser of upcoming musical-comedy  Fanney Khan  starring Anil Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, has finally been released after two teaser posters.  The 50 second long teaser begins with Rao explaining the meaning of ‘Fanney Khan’: someone who is an artist, a musician, a dreamer or even a complete idiot. This is followed by a glimpse of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who is shown as some sort of a celebrity or diva, and then we see glimpses of a lungi-clad Anil Kapoor passionately playing the trumpet on his terrace at night. Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the teaser on Twitter.
