What do Ashutosh Gowarikar, Karan Johar, Goldie Behl and Madhur Bhandarkar have in common apart from the fact that they are directors? Well, they all have a common leading lady for their forthcoming films in the form of the gorgeous Priyanka Chopra. And so smitten are they by the actress’s commitment towards her work that they made sure they were present right in time at the music launch of ‘Love Story: 2050’, a film that is close to Priyanka’s heart since it marks the debut of close friend Harman Baweja.
Music launches are star-studded affairs and this one was no exception. But what made it special was the presence of family well-wishers, the likes of which included Raveena Tandon who looked as smashing as she walked in with hubby Anil Thadani and Sonali Bendre who charmed everyone as she wished her very best to Harman who is extremely close to the Behl family.
But if there was one thing that gave close competition to the dazzle of stars present at the event, it was the ambience for the evening.”Harry Baweja, Harman’s father as well his director for the debut ensured that everyone present got a feel of the ‘futuristic’ aspect of the film. The venue was almost a replica of the film’s sets with steel-like giant sized masks placed all across, chairs that seem to be inspired from skeleton backs and even ‘Boo’, the robot teddy bear that is Piggy Chops’ best buddy in the film.
Harman smiles and says, “All this has been papa’s idea. Since all these props have been created for the film, he decided to use them as a setting for the launch so that people could actually get a peep into what the film was all about. Papa likes to experiment and we were eager to execute his ideas for him.”
All this and more ensured that the guests and the media left no stone unturned to rip off Priyanka and Harman about every single moment of shooting ‘Love Story: 2050’. And while the duo was whisked off upstairs as the clock struck midnight, I managed to follow them up to the third floor room where the Bawejas and Chopras were sharing some of their best moments. But believe it or not, what was really amusing was that Priyanka and Harman were pacing up and down the room asking for some food.
Says Priyanka, I cannot think of anything. I want food.. Some nice Indian food. I am famished.” Echoing her thoughts was Harman too, “Now that the nerves have settled, all I can think of is food.”
And it was not just them, but even other close family and friends present in the room demanded for some home-cooked Baweja food, Harry was extremely thrilled to reveal, “We have just called in for double the delicacies as the turn-out at the evening has been thrice than expected.” For this one, all we can say is ‘three cheers for Harman and Priyanka’!!!
