Khaujan (Naseeruddin Shah)and Babban (Arshad Warsi), the two romantic thieves are back in Dedh
Ishqiya, sequel to the acclaimed and successful Ishqiya with their
romantic adventures. And this time love will take them through the SEVEN
STAGES OF LOVE ... with the beautiful and dangerous Madhuri Dixit as
Begum Para and Huma Qureshi as Munniya.
Producer Mansi
Maroo says, “It is an interesting concept and has been beautifully
portrayed too. Two of the characters, played by Naseeruddin Shah and
Arshad Warsi, are having a conversation over a drink when Naseer saab
educates him about the seven stages which are dilkashi (attraction), uns
(attachment), mohobbat (love), akidat (trust), ibadat (worship), junoon
(madness) followed by maut (death).”
“Vishal
and Abhishek have a done wonderful job while depicting these
stages.Also, Naseersaab too knows the language so it was easy for him to
mouth those heavy-duty Urdu words. Arshad and others have done a lovely
work on their dialogues and the final result has come out really well.
Although there are some authentic words being used, Abhishek has made
sure that it has some humour to it so that audience can understand them
as well,” Mansi adds.
Other credits in Dedh Ishqiya include music by Vishal Bhardwaj, lyrics by Gulzar. The film is slated to release on January 10th, 2014. Dedh Ishqiya is produced by Vishal Bhardwaj Pictures Pvt. Ltd. and Shemaroo Entertainment
