The early part of the song is shot at Maheshwari/Parameshwari theater complex. You can see that Saajan is playing. It is from a Ram Gopal Varma directed Telugu movie Money starring Chakravarthy, Renuka Shahane and Paresh Rawal. Its a good song too with some good music.

Blast from the Past: Shankar’s Interview before release of Nayak
Check out this Filmfare August 2001 Interview of Shankar where he talks about offering Nayak to Aamir and Shah Rukh, working with Anil Kapoor and Kamal Haasan, his “obsession” Aishwarya Rai, Ram Gopal Varma’s obsession with heroines and comparisons with David Dhawan.

He’s India’s highest paid director. His fee is whispered to be a whopping Rs 5-crore plus. But look at the man in the khaki chinos with a conservative checked shirt… sitting in the plushest suite at a five-star hotel in Mumbai and you’ll never guess that his stock on the Indian film market is worth a lot more than that of apna Subhash Ghai, avid Dhawan or Aditya Chopra. Fact is he’s the only Indian director so far who has actually been offered a movie by a bigwig Hollywood Studio.
Shankar who makes his debut in Hindi films this August is the man who has directed five Tamil mega hits–Gentleman, Kadalan, Jeans (the original grossed crores) Indian and Mudalvan.
Nayak, his first offering in Hindi, is the remake of Mudalvan. The film deals with the hard-hitting subject of the corruption prevalent in our system… and it has a cast headed by the current garma-garam jodi Anil Kapoor and Rani Mukherjee.

Blast from the Past: Zohra Segal Interview – The drama of life
Zohra Segal turned 100 today. This is Zohra Segal’s Interview from 2003.
Rebellious, effervescent, stoic. As an individual, she has weathered the inner siege of not being conventionally beautiful, the untimely death of her husband, and the pain of living with cancer. As a dancer and actress, she has scaled the staircase to acclaim only after walking that extra step and decades of toil. Yet, the wrinkled grandma of showbiz has not lost her lust for life. Aparna Gupta draws the curtains of a world which unfolds the scenes of Zohra Segal ‘s life:
I have always been a rebel: I grew up in Chakrata in what is now Uttaranchal. There was no transport in those days and people were carried up and down the hills in baskets! Ours was a family of Rohilla Pathans and I was born to Mumtazullah Khan and Natiqua Begum as Sahibzadi Zohra Begum Mumtazullah Khan on April 27, 1912. The third of seven children – the others being Zakullah, Hajrah, Ikramullah, Uzra, Anna and Sabira – I have always been a rebel.
My best years were at school: I lost my mother early in life. Ammi had one desire: her daughters should be educated. My sisters and I went to Queen Mary’s College, Lahore.
