Himesh-Asha out, Ganesh-Sunidhi in for Sholay

Some more casting has been put to place for Ram Gopal Varma’s Sholay. Choreographer turned singer Ganesh Hedge will compose and choreograph the song Mehbooba Mehbooba for the film. Earlier Himesh
was to compose the same track and like his numerous music video appearances, was also set to make
an appearance in the item song playing the role of Jalal Agha. However things seem to have changed now with RGV roping in Ganesh Hegde. Varma wanted Himesh to
do the film but the music director is quite busy with his international shows. Meanwhile Ganesh
Hegde composed his version of the song adding old elements and incorporating new portions to it
too, which Varma liked. Ganesh and RGV are now planning to shoot the song in five to six
different parts of the world. Ganesh Hegde had earlier choreographed songs like Khallas and
Kambakth Ishq for Ramu.
Meanwhile, Asha Bhosle, who was originally supposed to sing the song, has been replaced by
Sunidhi Chauhan now. Interestingly both the singers were unaware about the other’s involvement
with the song. Sukhwinder Singh is Sunidhi’s male counterpart.
