‘Yaara Silly Silly’

Subhash Sehgal, who is returning to direction after over 15 years with “Yaara Silly Silly” — a title inspired from Lata Mangeshkar’s song “Yaara sili sili”, says the movie portrays a mature love story involving a prostitute. “This is a relationship-based film. To sum it up in one line, I would say it is a love story born in bed.

By bed, what I mean is that the central character is a prostitute, being played by Paoli Dam. “The genre that it portrays is that of a mature relationship,” Sehgal, who last directed “Pyaar Koi Khel Nahin”, told IANS.

The title of his new film is taken from the song in “Lekin”, helmed by Gulzar, with whom Sehgal has had a long association with. Sehgal stated that initially they were unhappy with the working title of the film. He felt a catchy title was essential for viewers to be drawn to his film and the inspiration came from “Lekin…”, which he had edited.
