She
might
have
left
us
'tanha,
tanha'
for
almost
a
decade
but
Hindi
cinema's
darling
from
the
90s,
Urmila
Matondkar
is
now
back
with
a
bang
as
'Bewafa
Beauty'
in
the
eponymous
song
from
Abhinay
Deo
and
Bhushan
Kumar's
film
'Blackmail'.
Also
known
for
her
captivating
dance
moves,
the
'Chamma
Chamma'
girl
will
be
seen
setting
the
screen
afire
as
a
bar
dancer
in
the
zany
song.
While
its
music
and
lyrics
mock
lead
actor
Irrfan,
who
is
dealing
with
an
unfaithful
wife,
it
is
set
inside
a
bar,
and
offers
a
glimpse
of
the
place
where
he
recites
his
life's
tragic
turn
to
a
friend.
Check
out
her
first
look
from
the
song
here-
Urmila
Matondkar
Looks
Ravishing
In
The
First
Glimpse
The
actress
was
cast
because
Deo
wanted
the
song
to
revive
the
memory
of
similar
songs
from
the
past.
She
Is
A
Perfect
Match
For
The
Song
&
Film
The
filmmaker
further
added,
"Firstly,
Urmila
is
a
massive
star,
she
is
not
an
item
girl.
We
were
not
looking
for
an
item
girl
for
this
song.
We
wanted
a
performer,
someone
who
has
tremendous
value
as
a
star
in
the
audience's
mind.
We
also
wanted
someone
who
has
not
come
in
front
of
the
silver
screen
for
a
while
now.
From
all
the
names
we
came
up
with,
I
personally
believe
that
the
biggest
and
best
name
is
Urmila.
She
fit
the
bill
perfectly,
is
gorgeous,
and
is
an
incredible
dancer
-
a
perfect
match
for
the
song
and
film."
It's
A
Naughty
Track
Talking
about
the
song,
producer
Bhushan
Kumar
says,
"Although
Irrfan's
character
in
‘Blackmail' is
in
a
situation
no
man
would
want
to
be
in,
the
mood
of
the
film
is
tongue-in-cheek.
We
wanted
a
song
that
would
be
naughty
and
humorous
without
being
vulgar.
‘Bewafa
Beauty'
is
that
song.
With
Amitabh
Bhattacharya's
wicked
lyrics
set
to
Amit
Trivedi's
racy
composition
and
Pawni
Pandey's
spicy
voice,
picturised
on
a
huge,
magnetic
star
like
Urmila
Matondkar,
this
song
is
set
to
burn
the
airwaves
in
an
already
scorching
summer."
Blackmail
Was
Supposed
To
Be
A
Songless
Film
But
This
Is
What
Happened
Next
Revealing
how
‘Bewafa
Beauty' came
to
be,
director
Abhinay
Deo
recalls,
"Initially,
there
was
no
song
in
the
film.
But
when
we
were
discussing
the
film
creatively,
Bhushan,
being
T-Series
and
having
a
keen
ear
for
music,
felt
that
there
should
definitely
be
a
lip-sync
song.
I
already
had
an
idea
of
including
a
song
which
could
take
the
story
ahead.
I
did
not
want
an
item
number
that
comes
and
goes.
We
knew
that
the
song
should
be
able
to
say
something
in
the
film.
Here's
Why
The
Song
Is
Named
'Bewafa
Beauty'
By
its
name,
‘Bewafa
Beauty'
states
that
it
is
about
a
beauty
who
is
unfaithful,
which
is
the
premise
of
the
film
-
a
man
whose
wife
is
cheating
on
him."
Blackmail,
the
Irrfan-starrer
has
been
creating
waves
ever
since
its
hilarious
teaser
released
which
piqued
the
interest
of
the
audience
by
raising
the
question:
"What
will
you
do
if
you
find
your
wife
in
bed
with
someone
else?"
The
quirky
comedy
boasts
an
ensemble
cast
of
Irrfan,
Kirti
Kulhari,
Divya
Dutta,
Arunoday
Singh,
Omi
Vaidya,
Anuja
Sathe,
Pradhuman
Singh
Mall,
Gajraj
Rao,
among
others.
Produced
by

Kumar
and

Motion
Pictures'
Abhinay
Deo,
'Blackमेल',
directed
by
Abhinay
Deo,
is
