Ajay's upcoming adaptation of the 2019 Tamil hit, Kaithi, is a case in point. mid-day caught a dekko of the song, Aadha main aadhi vo, which releases tomorrow. What makes the Ravi Basrur composition unique is B Praak's rendition. The singer's high-pitched voice has enhanced the final song, which has been penned by Irshad Kamil. This is an emotional number that aims to tug at the heartstrings. Sources claim that his rendition was appreciated by all the departments involved in the making of the film.

From too few, to too many

Sanjay Dutt is said to have committed to producer Firoz Nadiadwala's Hera Pheri 3. Yes, he joins Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty and Paresh Rawal in the much-anticipated comic caper.
