Mumbai, June 27: Ranbir Kapoor returns, and with a bang. Bachna Ae Haseeno, his forthcoming film is sure to win many more hearts for this young and talented actor with a great lineage in the filmdom.

Ranbir Kapoor will be seen in the new film with his lady love Deepika Padukone, besides Bipasha Basu and Minissha Lamba. The film being produced by Yash Raj Films is giving great hope to the producers who of late are struggling to find a big hit at the box office. The big budget film Tashan was a disappointment, and verdict is awaited in moderate budget film Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic.

The promos of the film are being launched coinciding with the release of Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic, that stars Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukherjee.

The film is being directed by Siddharth Anand who plans to release the film this forthcoming August.

Anand says, “we have used the song from Hum Kissi Se Kam Nahin by Kishore Kumar at the beginning of the track. Then we got Kishore and Leena Chandavarkarji's son Sumeet to sing the rest of the song as an original composition. So it'd be quite an emotional and nostalgic trip. Kishoreda's son sings for Chintuji's son”.

Kishoreda's son sings for Chintuji's son," Siddharth said.

Siddharth said that the rest of the track has been completely re-worked by Vishal-Shekhar.

"It's not a remix at all. The track takes off from the original in a totally different tangent. We had taken a conscious decision not to use the song unless it turned out as special as we wanted it to be. We are really proud of the outcome," added the director of the hit romantic comedy Salaam Namastey.

And yes, for nostalgia's sake, yesteryears dancing star Rishi Kapoor may team up with his son Ranbir to shake a leg "though I'm too scared to ask him (Rishi) as yet," laughed Siddharth.

Producer Yash Raj Films is going the extra mile to promote this romantic comedy.

"The only time Yash Raj has done separate music videos for their films is for Dhoom. It's the project that determines the promotion. I think we had a great title song and it was waiting to be used as a music video," said Siddharth.

Siddharth will shoot it with choreographer Ahmed Khan. 

"All of us - Ranbir, Bipasha Basu, Minissha Lamba, Deepika Padukone and Ahmed - are getting completely engrossed in shooting the video."

Interestingly, Ranbir tried to sing his father's song but gave up the idea.

"We did try Ranbir's own voice for the track. He does have a great singing voice. But we were in a hurry and we didn't want to make it overly gimmicky. I think I'll keep Ranbir's singing for posterity.

"I'm actually really nervous aboutBachna Ae Haseeno. Everyone talks about his film being different. So I'm hesitant to use that word. Like Salaam Namastey, Bachna Ae Haseeno is a true blue romantic comedy. But I'm confident. Ranbir is exceptionally talented."
