About
Aishwarya's
Character
In
Fanney
Khan
Revealing
the
details
of
the
song
debutant
director
Atul
Manjrekar
said,
"The
concept
of
the
song
came
through
Aishwarya's
character
in
the
film.
She
plays
a
diva,
a
singing
star.
She's
the
number
one
singer
and
the
most
beautiful
woman
in
the
country.
The
song
sees
her
character
touring
across
India
and
performing
in
front
of
a
live
audience.
For
the
sequence,
we
referenced
recent
concerts
that
featured
Arijit
Singh,
Ed
Sheeran,
Coldplay.
That
was
the
starting
point".
Aishwarya
To
Go
The
Beyonce
Way
In
order
to
keep
the
look
and
costumes,
producers
Bhushan
Kumar,
Anil
Kapoor
and
PS
Bharathi
roped
in
American
choreographer
Frank
Gatson
Jr
who
has
earlier
worked
with
Beyonce,
Jennifer
Lopez
amongst
others.
Frank
Was
Delighted
To
Choreograph
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan
Talking
about
working
with
Frank,
the
director
said,"There
is
great
talent
in
India
and
one
of
them,
Ganesh
Acharya,
is
the
main
choreographer
for
my
film.
However,
with
Aishwarya's
song,
we
were
attempting
a
performance
of
an
international
calibre.
That
said,
let
us
not
call
Frank
a
choreographer.
He
is
more
of
a
performance
designer.
It's
more
of
a
performance-oriented
number
than
a
dance
sequence".
And..
We
Can't
Wait
To
Watch
Aishwarya's
Dance
Number
Throwing
light
on
the
experience
of
working

the
international
choreographer,
Atul
Manjrekar
said,
"When
we
approached
him,
he
was
very
excited
about
the
project
and
wanted
to
work
with
Aishwarya.
The
prospect
of
doing
a
Bollywood
song
appealed
to
him."

when
I
heard
her
voice
for
the
first
time".
