A couple of years back when DARLING had released, Priyanka Kothari (then known as Nisha Kothari) had delivered a chartbuster item song in the form of ‘Aa Khushi Se Khudkhushi Kar Le’ [Darling] where she got naughty with Fardeen Khan. Though she hasn’t been very active in the Bollywood circuit ever since the release of the film (barring an occasional GO which was a delayed release), she is all set to return with a bang with AGYAAT. The film features her a solo female lead and would also boast of a sizzling dance number which has been tantalisingly titled ‘Kiss Mix’.
“Yes, that’s my song in AGYAAT”, smiles Priyanka who has kept a brave face in spite of those harrowing days that she had to spend to recover from her injury, “Don’t you like the sound of ‘Kiss Mix’? I find it quite cute actually; it is just one of it’s own kinds.”
When the shooting of AGYAAT had come to a standstill, only a few scenes involving Priyanka were waiting to be shot. The earlier plans were to have only song to be picturised but later ‘Kiss Mix’ was added as an after thought.
“This is one song which has excited me so much after a very long time. And before you call it as an item or a promotional number, let me clear this at the very onset that ‘Kiss Mix’ would be very much a part of the film”, says Priyanka.
Priyanka adds in an excited tone, “I am hooked to the sound of the song and have really become possessive about it. Moreover, since the number is about a kiss, something which is a universal phenomenon, I am doubly excited.”
Quick to find herself back on feet after an accident during the shoot of Ram Gopal Varma’s AGYAAT kept her bedridden for a few weeks, Priyanka Kothari is raring to go. She says, “I am working hard to be completely in shape before the shooting begins for ‘Kiss Mix’. I am concentrating on my diet, exercises as well as costumes.”
Produced by Ram Gopal Varma and Ronnie Screwvala, AGYAAT has music by Bapi and Tutul. Other than Priyanka Kothari, the film also stars Nitin Reddy along with Ramu regulars like Ravi Kale and Ishrat Ali. Others in the cast are Harvey Rosemeyer, Kali Prasad Mukherjee, Rasika Duggal, Joy Fernandes, Ishteyak and Gautum Rode.
