Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerjee in Bunty Aur Babli 2
Over a decade after they shared screen space, Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerjee will be seen shaking a leg to the foot-tapping number, Tattoo waaliye in Bunty Aur Babli 2. Excited to pair up with his Hum Tum (2004) co-star again, Khan tells mid-day, "Every on-screen Jodi has a unique calling card for audiences. For Rani and me, it has been romantic comedies. We have been lucky to have had chart-busting songs. Hum Tum, especially, had blockbuster music. Rani and I had a blast filming such songs and dancing to them. We definitely needed a song like this one to dance to again. It is a fun party track that will pull people to the dance floor."
Mukerjee credits choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant for putting together a piece that was "cool and relaxed". "It is a groovy number, and gets stuck in the head when you hear it," she says.
The duo is accompanied by Siddhant Chaturvedi and Sharvari in the track. "This is my first dance number in a movie, so, it is important for me," says the Gully Boy actor, adding, "I rehearsed incessantly and put in many hours to nail every step before the camera rolled. I'm glad to have found a dancing partner like Sharvari who is a perfectionist." Sharvari too admits that the film marks many firsts for her. "I love dancing, especially to Hindi film songs.
