Farah Khan on the first song of Dil Bechara: All I can see is how alive and happy Sushant Singh Rajput looks in it

The first song of Dil Bechara, featuring Sushant Singh Rajput, released yesterday. Crooned by AR Rahman, the song has Sushant’s character Manny dancing during a college function and singing about his “bechara” heart, after being friend-zoned by Kizzie (Sanjana Sanghi).

The song has left fans of Sushant Singh Rajput emotional. Everyone is in awe of his charm, acting chops and expertise in dancing. Meanwhile, the film’s director Mukesh Chhabra has shared how the song was shot in a single take and how choreographer Farah Khan came on board.

In his latest tweet, the casting director-turned-director shared a screenshot of his conversation with Farah. When he first approached her to choreograph Dil Bechara title track, she liked the song so much that she decided to shoot it in one take and was confident about Sushant pulling it off.

The title track of Dil Bechara is ‘special’ for the choreographer as it was the first time she choreographed Sushant. “This song is particularly close to me because it was the first time I was choreographing Sushant.. we were friends for a long time but never worked together.. I had also promised Mukesh Chhabra that whn he makes his directorial debut I would do a song for him.. I wanted the song to b done as a 1 shot song because I knew Sushant would b able to do it perfectly..” Farah shared on Instagram.
