Model Jesse Randhawa will be seen in a very unconventional item number in Anurag Kashyap’s film No Smoking .
Anurag sure does think out of the box. In the time when Mallikas and Celinas are the queens of item numbers, the maverick director has opted for a lanky model for a song in his movie ‘No Smoking’ that stars John Abraham in the lead role.
It is learnt that Anurag got the idea of casting Jesse Randhawa for the song when he saw her hosting the Salaam-e-Ishq fashion show recently. He had previously worked with her in his movie ‘Gulaal’, which never got released.
According to Anurag, the song Jesse does in ‘No Smoking’ is a very stylish one, but it has no nudity. In fact, Jesse will be seen dressed in a black suit throughout the song.
Anurag says: “Jesse suited the mood, attitude and feel of the film.”
It took Jesse two-three days of rehearsals to learn the dance steps for the song which is choreographed by Ashley Lobo.
‘No Smoking’ tells the story of a chain smoker who joins a rehab to quit the habit after his marriage comes to the point of collapse. Ayesha Takia is paired with John in the film.
