Anubhav
Sinha's
Cash
is
getting
more
impressive
by
the
day.
Now
the
Dus
director
has
shot
a
four
minute
song
in
one
take.
One
might
recall
Shakti
Samanta's
film
Aradhana
in
which
the
song
Roop
Tera
Mastana
was
shot
in
one
take.
"Don't
know
how
how
Shaktida
did
it
thirty
eight
years
ago.
The
poor
cameraman
must
have
been
scampering
all
over
the
place
trying
to
capture
Rajesh
Khanna
and
Sharmila
Tagore.
But
what
a
song!" says
Anubhav
Sinha
appreciatively.
After
decades
another
single-shot
song
(meaning
the
shots
aren't
divided
and
the
entire
sequence
is
shot
in
one
camera
movement)
has
been
done
for
Anubhav
Sinha's
Cash,
and
this
time
there
were
five
actors...Ritesh
Deshmukh,
Zayed
Khan,
Esha
Deol,
Shamita
Shetty
and
Dia
Mirza
sharing
screen
space.
Says
Anubhav,
"Initially
I
wanted
to
drop
this
song
entitled
Naughty
naughty
from
the
film.
It
just
didn't
fit
in.
Then
I
decided
to
do
something
different
with
it.
It
was
really
tough
getting
all
the
characters
and
their
movements
down
in
one
shot.
We
would
zoom
in
one
couple
and
then
follow
another
couple
down
the
corridor...
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
It
was
quite
a
challenge
to
do
a
single-shot
song
with
so
many
actors.
But
finally
it
was
fun."
Incidentally
director
Wilson
Louis
has
also
canned
a
three
and
a
half
minute
song
in
one
shot
for
his
forthcoming
film
Ghat:
The
hill
station.
