Race,
one
of
the
hottest
films
this
season,
is
around
three
weeks
away
from
its
release.
Still,
it's
producers
TIPS
and
composer
Pritam
are
leaving
no
stones
unturned
to
ensure
that
the
film
not
just
stays
in
news
but
also
take
one
of
the
biggest
ever
openings
at
the
Box
Office.
To
keep
the
film
hot
in
circulation
and
add
on
to
the
immense
hype
that
this
action/thriller
has
been
generating,
the
makers
have
decided
to
add
on
a
new
song
in
Race.
The
song
is
special
since
it
features
Saif
Ali
Khan
and
now
hot-n-happening
Katrina
Kaif
who
was
the
only
leading
lady
to
have
enjoyed
a
cent
percent
record
last
year
(
Namastey
London,
Apne,
Partner
and
Welcome
).
Moreover,
the
title
of
the
song
is
nothing
less
than
inviting
as
it
reads
-
'Sexy
Lady'.
As
per
the
film's
producer
Ramesh
Taurani
(of
TIPS),
the
song
was
added
as
it
was
found
to
be
a
good
replacement
for
'Mujhpe
To
Jaado'
which
was
yet
to
be
shot.
"We
are
thrilled
with
the
great
response
to
the
title
song
'Race
Sanson
Ki',
'Pehli
Nazar
Mein'
and
'Zara
Zara
Touch
Me'.
We
wanted
to
keep
the
momentum
going.
When
Pritam
made
us
hear
the
tune
of
'Sexy
Lady',
we
knew
that
this
was
the
song
for
the
film," confirms
Ramesh
Taurani.
Adds
Pritam,
"'Mujhpe
To
Jadoo'
was
anyways
waiting
to
be
picturized.
Since
Abbas-Mustan
also
felt
that
'Sexy
Lady'
could
be
a
good
replacement,
everyone
was
in
consensus
with
the
decision.
Says
a
confident
Taurani,
"We
are
quite
happy
with
the
way
Race
is
leading
up
to
it's
March
21
release.
The
songs
are
doing
quite
well
and
are
leading
the
charts
all
over.
We
would
begin
unleashing
the
talkie
promos
early
March.
They
would
be
a
mix
of
action
and
drama
which
forms
the
USP
of
the
film."
Meanwhile
shooting
of
'Sexy
Lady'
is
currently
on
and
would
be
wrapped
up
in
quick
time
so
that
the
song
is
on
air
before
the
release
of
the
film.
Moreover,
there
won't
be
much
wait
for
the
new
edition
of
the
music
album
of
Race
to
arrive
too.
By
first
week
of
March,
latest
addition
'Sexy
Lady'
is
expected
to
be
a
part
of
the
newer
lots
of
Race
that
would
be
out
on
stands.
