Below is the song:

Vaibhavi Merchant, who is known to present the hottest versions of leading ladies on screen – Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in “Kajra Re” from Bunty Aur Babli, Katrina Kaif in “Kamli” from Dhoom 3 to the scintillating Deepika in “Besharam Rang”.

She shared the experience of doing the first song with Deepika and how she made it special with her choreography.

Talking about the same, she said, “In my body of work, I have probably consciously made an effort to ensure that the female leads are always presented very aesthetically. For instance, with Ash (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan) in “Kajra Re”, I made it a point to kind of enhance the expressions in the way she did her ‘adaakari’. In “Kamli” with Katrina again, I kept in my what Katrina would look great doing.”

Vaibhavi added, “One must always study the actor you’re choreographing for because it doesn’t matter if the movement looks great on me or my assistants, but it must look fantastic on the actor.”

The choreographer continued, “Strangely, I’ve never been able to choreograph something for Deepika until “Besharam Rang”. So, this is my first song with Deepika and I knew I had to do something really special for this one. It was very endearing for me to see her approach me and say finally we get to work with each other and I said Deepika I truly want to make this very special for you because this is our first and I don’t want to shoot a better song than this for you in future.”

“She went all out in making Deepika look the hottest heroine that India has ever seen on screen. She says, “I wanted to go all out to present her in a way that she has never been presented before. I must give it to Shaleena Nathani for the costumes. Deepika has a great rapport with her and I was pleasantly surprised to see her being so comfortable in her own skin. She owns the song and she is looking gorgeous in every frame,” Vaibhavi said.

She added, “Deepika put in a lot of hard work to look the way she is looking in Besharam Rang. She had an entire crew – dietitian, her physical trainer and the stunning costumes by Shaleena. I was mighty impressed with the way she just approached all the costumes she’s like, yeah, she’s cool to wear this, she’s cool to wear that. So, I think that really triggered a certain style in which this song should be shot. Because I was like, I can’t make her wear those costumes and make her do steps in a way that we usually shoot songs.”

‘Besharam Rang’ was shot in Spain’s most gorgeous coastal towns Mallorca, Cadiz and Jerez. Shah Rukh Khan portrays a gun-toting spy with a license to kill in the upcoming action-thriller film, which is set to release on January 25, 2023, in three languages. SRK and Deepika are one of the biggest on-screen pairings in the history of Indian cinema given their epic blockbusters like Om Shanti OmChennai Express and Happy New Year.
