Sachin Kundalkar

What we saw in Rani Mukherjee’s comeback film Aiyyaa is not what we were supposed to get. One learns from very reliable sources close to the project that director Sachin Kundalkar, revelling in his image of the National-award winner, had his way over and above the wishes the producers, and insisted on editing the film the way he wanted to. A very distressed pivotal player in the fiasco that is <em>Aiyyaa</em> says Kundalkar showed a very different version of the film to his producers Viacom and Rani Mukherjee from what he finally edited and released in theatres on Friday.

Following Katrina Kaif who did a lavani number in the Hrithik Roshan-starrer Agneepath and Vidya Balan who danced to a lavani number in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s recently released <em>Ferrari Ki Sawaari</em>, Rani Mukerji has picked up the cudgel and has finished shooting for a <em>lavani</em> number in director Sachin Kundalkar’s <em>Aiyya</em>. The song has been choreographed by Vaibhavi Merchant.
