Moreover, Vinay has sung the song himself. He had recorded it in a studio earlier and was pretty exicted about crooning. This is also the first time that he is singing in a film."

The track goes Jeevan Ye Saral Hai Seedhi Si Lakeer, Bahey Yeh Chal Chal Jaise Gangaji Ka Neer. The music is composed by Sneha Khanvilkar.

For the last couple of months there had been all kinds of buzz about the project which included a delay as well as budgetary concerns.

In March, Ballary had visited Singapore to can some portions of the film leading to more speculation about the film's shoot schedules.

Says the director, "It was important to include those scenes for the film as we have shot a major chunk. These things were important for the film and needed to be added and now that it is finally done, we can incorporate it and begin the marketing."

Vital concern
He adds, "It is important that a producer give a tight budget. I like to work that way. Bheja Fry 2 is the producer's (Mukul Deora) firstu00a0 venture. So, he was an hands-on producer."

Apart from Pathak, the film's cast includes Minissha Lamba, Kay Kay Menon, Amole Gupte and Rukhsar.
Bheja Fry 2 is slated to release in June.
