Sonu Nigam Sings For No Entry Remake!

The first look of the Marathi version of the Hindi super-hit, “No Entry – Pudhe Dhoka Aahey” (There’s Danger Ahead), was unveiled July 25 at the Hotel Sun’N’Sand.

It is produced by Premnath Rajgpopalan and Nikhil Saini, and directed by Ankush Chaudhari, who also plays the counterpart of Salman Khan in the film. The film is almost a frame-by-frame remake of the Hindi film, which was itself a remake of a South Indian film.

The screenplay therefore is still credited as “Original Screenplay: Anees Bazmee.” Incidentally, including the Hindi, this is the sixth version of this comedy on marital infidelity.

The event at the poolside saw guests welcomed with roses by ‘Navvari’ (nine-yards) sari-clad girls and young boys with drums dancing to the beats of “lezim,” the Marathi folk form. Chaudhari also played MC and introduced the team – Bharat Jadhav who plays Anil Kapoor, Saie Tamhankar (who arrived pretty late) who plays the seductress Bipasha Basu, Kranti Redkar who plays Lara Dutta’s part, Aniket Vishwasrao, who play Fardeen Khan’s character, Sai Lokur, who essays Esha Deol and Manava Naik in Celina’s part.

Anant Jog plays Boman Irani’s counterpart while Viju Khote in cast in Anjjan Srivastava’s role. Paddy (Pandharinath Kamble) plays Paresh Ganatra’s part.

Music directors Nakash-Sargam have set tunes to lyrics by Guru Thakur. Nakash presented the ‘mukhda’ of the title-song on stage – the song has Anu Malik and Sunidhi Chauhan as singers – Anu had composed music for the Hindi film and Nakash imitated his voice to perfection in the original Marathi song that marks the debut of both Anu and Sunidhi in Marathi films as singers – both had also sung in “No Entry.”

Two more firsts in the film are the voices of Sonu Nigam and Wajid of Sajid-Wajid as playback singers. Arvind Soni is DOP and action by Pappu Verma.

Producer Boney Kapoor was expected but did not make it, but Anu Malik and Anees Bazmee did grace the occasion, mingling around for a long while. Siddharth Jadhav was also among the guests.

The film has been shot extensively in Goa, also the venue of the Hindi original, and now a prime location for most comedies, among other films.
