Santosh Sivan, who has started the shoot of his trilingual Urumi in the forest areas surrounding Malshej Ghat, has pulled off a coup. The film already has Prithviraj, Prabhu Deva and Genelia in the lead, with Deepak Dev providing music, but Santosh has got Tabu and Vidya Balan to do separate item songs, says a media report.
He recently shot a sensational rain song choreographed by Bollywood's famous dance master Ahmed Khan with Tabu, Prabhu Deva and Prithviraj, when it was actually pouring cats and dogs on location! Interestingly, a few months ago, Santosh shot in artificial rain for a song in Mani Ratnam's Raavan. Prithviraj, who is also one of the producers of the film, blogged, “Santosh is making Malshej Ghat look like another world as nature and the rains made it look terrific.”
While Santosh himself said, “The Tabu song is complete, the Vidya Balan song is still in progress.” Meanwhile, the buzz is that Genelia — who plays a Portuguese princess — is learning horse riding and will be joining the unit later.
