Kareena's jhatkas


The rather low quality, 1m long trailer impresses with the song's beats, Kareena's jhatkas and vibrant colorful sets.

It is hard enough to understand why Bollywood makes such low quality films, even harder to understand why they promote them with such low quality trailers.

The promos of Billu Barber available on the web particularly have been of dismal quality and the film has a pervasive air of insipidness despite featuring Shah Rukh Khan and being his home production.

Kareena shows plenty of skin in a black cutaway midriff halter dress and a white dress with full-on slits on the legs with her long dark hair cascading down her back.

The song has been sung by Anushka Manchanda, Sukhwinder Singh, composed by Pritam, choreographer by Parsanna Sujit and lyrics are by Gulzar.

Lyrics of the song start off as:

Ooo Ooo, Ooo Ooo
Theek Hai Theek, Theek Sab Kuch Theek Hai
Paas Hai Sab Kuch Rab Nazdeek Hai, Ooo Ooo
Hey Rab Ke Hazur Mein Kasmein Bhi Kha Li
Duniya Ki Auni Pauni Rasmein Nibha Li, Ooo Ooo
Phir Bhi Na Koi To Dafa Kar
Maane Jo Maane Na Mane Jo Bhala Kar
Duniya Naa Maane Khasmanu Khaye
Khasmanu Khaye Marjaani
Haaye Marjaani Marjaani
Oye Khasmanu Khaye Marjaani
Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo

The story of Billu Barber is inspired from the tale of Krishna and Sudama. Shah Rukh and Irrfan Khan play two childhood friends who grow up and study together in a village. The two drift apart when Shah Rukh moves to a city and becomes super star Sahir Khan. Irrfan grows up to become the village barber.

When Shah Rukh returns to the village with a film unit everyone wants Billu to meet the superstar, but Billu is unsure if Sahir will recognize him
