Actors Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, music directors Sachin Sanghvi and Jigar Saraiya (Sachin-Jigar), singers Divya Kumar and Jasmine Sandlas, producer Amar Kaushik and director Aditya Sarpotdar attended the launch of the song ‘Poison Baby’ from Thamma. Malaika Arora, who features in the song, made a quick special appearance as well.
Thamma ‘Poison Baby’ song launch: Rashmika Mandanna reveals that ‘Tum Mere Na Huye’ was shot just after her three-month-long fracture ordeal; adds, “I didn’t know what I was getting into”
The event was also utilized by the makers to perform live all the songs from the film and share trivia about them. When it was the turn of ‘Tum Mere Na Huye’, Rashmika Mandanna said, “Sachin-Jigar has been saying that music comes out of thin air. But the song ‘Tum Mere Na Huye’, truly for me as an artist, literally came out of thin air. One day, Amar sir, Aditya sir and Dinesh sir (producer Dinesh Vijan) were sitting on the set and said, ‘You know what, we have an idea and why don’t we just shoot a song?’. It just came like that. I replied, ‘Let’s go’. I didn’t know what I was getting into (laughs).”
Rashmika continued, “I had just come out of a fracture, which was like three months in. They told me about ‘Tum Mere Na Huye’ and that it was the song that they wanted to shoot a video for. I was like, ‘Ok, but how am I going to dance to this song?’. This is because this is a very heartbreak kind of a song, but also, it was so interesting that for a song like this, they created a dance like this.”
She added, “So, I remember it came out like that. Today, to see it happen like this (is heartening). I also wanted to surprise my audience in a way that they didn’t know what to look forward to. I think Maddock is the best arena to do that.”
Ayushmann Khurrana stated, “This is completely Rashmika’s song. I am there to admire her beauty. That’s my character in the song. And of course, she’s singing for me. There’s one section where I am dancing but overall, she has done the dancing. We hardly had two days to rehearse. It was the last day of the set. Bahut hi khoobsurat set tha. Before dismantling the set, we wanted to utilize it. This is how the song was finalized. As Rashmika said, it was impromptu. It is one of my favourite tracks in the film.”
Thamma releases in cinemas on October 21.
Chaos outside the launch venue
The scene outside the grand song launch was chaotic. The entry to the restobar, where the song launch was taking place, was through a back entrance with dim lighting and a rundown, unkempt approach path. The organizers goofed up and certain prominent journalists were denied entry, though they have been regulars in attending events. A few members of the team were also seen yelling at the people standing outside.
