Trust Bhatts to not just keep churning hit music but also attach innovative music videos to some of their best tracks. In case of RAAZ – THE MYSTERY CONTINUES, they have done it twice in a matter of just around 10 days with first ‘Maahi Ve’ and now ‘O Jaana’. While the original version of ‘Maahi Ve’ was the first to hit the screens a few weeks back, it’s video starring Emraan Hashmi in center stage came very recently. Hardly has the euphoria on the rock version of ‘Maahi Ve’ settled down and Bhatts are ready to unveil another music video for ‘O Jaana’.
This writer had an exclusive dekko at the song and it has to be admitted that music video for the remix version of ‘O Jaana’ is the classiest ever to have been churned out of Vishesh Films. The track has a New Age look and feel to it with the principal cast of the film – Emraan Hashmi, Kangna Ranaut and Adhyayan Suman – being a part of it. Also, while Emraan Hashmi (obviously) holds the centerstage, Adhyayan and Kangna aren’t left behind either and have a definite role to play in the video.
Emraan Hashmi does what he is best at and has been doing forever in each of his chartbuster songs for years while Adhyayan Suman too looks far more confident in his entire cool avtar. However, the stunner of the show is Kangna Ranaut who gets to lip synch the English portion of the song and looks like a true import from the West, what with her costumes, make up and the body language showcasing a different facet of her persona. In fact the next time she mentions that she is just a small town girl from the North side of the country, she would certainly be questioned by many since she hardly looks like an Indian in the first place in the song.
With electrifying laser work, special effects and CG on display, the music video is the kind that should play on in up-market discs and pubs due to the immense dance appeal that it carries. Moreover, the cutting edge edit patter in ‘O Jaana’ makes it a track that you want to revisit multiple number of times. Have a look!
