Urvashi gives 48 retakes for ‘Aashiq banaya apne’

- Urvashi Rautela

Shooting dance numbers is not as easy as it looks. Actor Urvashi Rautela went through a tough time while shooting the song ‘Aashiq banaya aapne’ for her film Hate Story IV. She was wearing high heels for the shoot and got blisters on her feet while shooting the dance number. Apparently, while she was delivering the steps correctly, the background dancers couldn’t match her movements and kept missing steps. Urvashi kept shooting till all steps were synchronis­ed and was patient during entire song shoot. Ultimately, she had to do almost 48 takes along with them to get the shot perfect.

Director Vishal Pandya says, “Urvashi was very cool about it. She knew that sometimes it happens to all actors and just as we adjust with other actors, this time we have to adjust to the background dancers. She was patient for the one-and-half hours it took us to get the right take. The amazing thing was that every time she gave a take there was no dent in her zest and energy and that is there for all of us to see in the song today. Actually, it was not the fault of the dancers also. Since the lyrics were in Hindi, they were taking time to attune to the beat of the song.”
