In the song, he will be seen grooving with a bunch of beautiful girls, lip synchingu00a0- "Khabardaar mujhse dur hi rehna, mere paas na aana, namaakul.... If you know what I mean khayega ek nahin teen chamat."
Boman says, "The first time around, the director was chasing me to sing. This time, I was keen to sing. It is a very catchy song. And I had loads of fun singing it." Fruit & Nut is quirky comedy. It also starring Cyrus Barucha, Mahesh Manjrekar, Boman Irani and Dia Mirza.
