Shreya Ghoshal sings SLB’s ode to Madhubala in ‘Bajirao Mastani’

‘Bajirao Mastani’ is already going to see grandeur which Sanjay Leela Bhansali is known for. BizAsia reported not long ago that the director had created an Aaina Mahal for a special song for the movie which would be similar to 1960’s ‘Mughal-E-Azam’. The queen of melody Shreya Ghoshal has sung the song which is titled Deewani Mastani.

A source told Deccan Chronicle, “Sanjay is the hugest fan of Lataji. He got Shreya Ghosal, who is a direct descendent of the Lata Mangeshkar school of singing, to do the needful in Bajirao Mastani”.

The song is a special composition created specially for Bhansali as a replica of the famous Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya in ‘Mughal-E-Azam’. A unit member further divulged, “Under the supervision of choreographer Remo D�۪Souza, Deepika danced like a dream. This number will do for her what Pyar Kiya Toh Darna Kya did for Madhubala. And yes, Sanjay has shot images of Deepika reflected in scores of mirrors in�� his ��Aaina Mahal�۪, just as K. Asif�� had shot Madhubala in the ��Sheesh Mahal'”.

The film also stars Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra and is slated for release on 18th December.
