Yash
Raj
Films
and
Kunal
Kohli
are
finally
out
with
the
name
of
their
forthcoming
film
starring
Rani
Mukherjee
and
Saif
Ali
Khan.
The
film
is
now
titled
Thoda
Pyaar
Thoda
Magic.
"We
just
got
the
title
3
or
4
days
back.
Thoda
Pyaar
Thoda
Magic
came
by
as
I
was
looking
for
a
title
that
was
more
relevant
in
today's
times,
something
that
even
a
lay
man
can
relate
to.
The
name
has
to
go
the
beyond
the
film
and
should
be
able
to
express
more.
And
when
we
speak
of
Magic,
it's
not
'jadugar'
magic.
It
basically,
talks
about
the
little
magic
we
need
in
our
lives.
Say
sometimes
you
are
upset,
sad,
or
down
and
that
little
ray
of
magic
works
things
out.
We
all
need
magic
in
our
lives
and
that's
what
the
film
does.
It's
like
a
silver
lining,
it's
like
the
magic
of
life",
explains
Kunal
Kohli.
The
buzz
of
Amisha
Patel
being
in
Kunal's
film
already
gave
rise
to
various
rumours
of
her
doing
an
item
number
and
so
on.
Clearing
all
rumours,
Kunal
states,
"It
is
not
an
item
number.
I
hate
the
term
'item
number'
in
the
first
place.
Yes,
she
is
doing
my
film
but
it's
not
what
you
think.
Amisha
Patel
is
doing
a
guest
appearance
in
the
film
and
it's
a
character
role,
which
would
also
have
a
song.
The
song
is
not
an
item
number
but
a
beautiful
and
poetic
song.
She
would
have
scenes
as
well;
I
do
not
believe
in
the
concept
of
item
numbers
and
do
not
like
it
being
associated
to
my
song.
I
asked
Amisha
Patel
to
do
the
role
because
the
kind
of
character
I
had
built,
I
thought
she
would
be
able
to
do
justice
to
the
role.
I
approached
her,
explained
the
role,
and
told
her
there
was
a
song
as
well.
What
is
more
important
is
her
role
and
not
the
song.
When
she
heard
the
role,
she
was
excited
and
agreed
to
do
the
role
immediately.
She
basically
loved
her
part
in
the
film."
So
what
is
Thoda
Pyaar
Thoda
Magic
is
all
about?
"The
film
is
very
different
from
all
my
previous
films.
I
do
not
have
the
same
style
of
directing
in
any
of
my
films.
It's
a
combination
of
fantasy
and
reality.
All
my
films
have
been
different,
but
none
had
fantasy
as
an
element
in
it.
The
genre
of
this
film
is
slightly
different.
Fantasy
is
interwoven
with
reality
like
in
Mr.
India,
Krrish
and
Koi
Mil
Gaya.
These
films
have
kids
but
are
not
directed
only
towards
kids,
it
could
be
watched
by
audiences
of
all
ages.
Kids
now-
a-days
are
very
intelligent
and
you
cannot
talk
down
to
them.
They
have
to
be
treated
with
respect.
My
film
is
an
entertaining
Hindi
film,
which
is
for
kids
as
well
as
the
masses",
says
Kunal.
The
film"s
shooting
is
complete
and
it
is
now
into
post
production.
Shankar
Ehsaan
Loy
have
given
the
music
for
Thoda
Pyaar
Thoda
Magic
and
the
lyrics
are
by
Prasoon
Joshi.
"The
music
is
releasing
on
May
22nd
or
23rd.
It's
a
complete
mix
of
emotional
and
upbeat
music.
The
music
of
my
films
have
always
been
strong
and
interesting
and
SEL
have
done
a
fabulous
job
on
this.
As
for
Prasoon,
he
is
extremely
talented",
says
Kohli.
