On Wednesday evening, R… Rajkumar had a music launch old school style. Actual properties from the film set were used to create an ambience straight out of the movie. While Mukul Dev and Asrani played hosts, Shahid Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha, Prabhudheva and even Sonu Sood performed to the songs. Of course, watching Shahid Kapoor and Prabhudheva dance together was a treat. But you can guess that what took the cake was questions from the media. Following are the top 5 questions (in no particular order) and responses to some:

1. To Shahid: “Aapne pyaar mein kitni baar maar khaai hai?” (How many times have you been beaten up in love?)

Sonakshi responds: In ka toh pata nahi par aapne zaroor, har field mein maar khaai hogi. (I don’t know about him but you would have definitely been beaten up in every field.)

2. To Sonakshi: R… Rajkumar is releasing on 6th December and your dad’s (Shatrughan Sinha‘s) birthday is a few days after that. Would you say the film is a birthday gift for your dad?

Sonakshi replies: In a year, if 4 films release, they’re bound to co-incide with someone or the other’s birthday. So ya, I guess, if the film does well, it’ll be a dhamakedaar gift for my dad.

3. To Sonakshi: How did you prepare to become a teekhi mirchi?

Honestly, what is the answer to this question? I ate a lot of chillis? Bahahahaha

4. Hamari filmon mein kaale kaale baal aur gore gore gaal ki baat hoti thi, ab aap saree ke fall ki baat kar rahe hai. (In our films, we’ve spoken about luscious black hair and fair cheeks, now you are talking about the fall of a saree.)

Ummm, were you looking for a discount on sarees, mister?

5. To Prabhudheva: All your Hindi films have been remakes. How was it making an original film?

What an original question ya!

Seriously, there were many more gems at the Q & A session. But we won’t give them all away. 😉

In any case, what do you think of the music of R… Rajkumar? Tell us which song you love.
