In 5 Weddings director Namrata Singh Gujral words “Raj and Nargis have the best chemistry ever!" While shooting for a dance sequence, the director wanted the actors, Nargis Fakhri, and Rajkummar Rao to improvise to the music. The crew on the set thought they would at least take two days to finish the shoot of this song, but the actors took everyone by surprise and even before anyone could realize both of them were taking turns in leading each other.

They were choreographing each other, laughing and having so much fun while shooting for the dance sequence, overall it turned out to be an effortlessly beautiful song.

“Needless to say, not only did we finish that night – but the editors also had a tough time picking their dance moves. They were so well synced and self-choreographed. I realize that actors with Bollywood backgrounds definitely come with special benefits,” added Namrata.

One of the best moments of shooting on 5 Weddings of the director was the times they were just driving around in circles because the bumpy roads would not allow them to shoot. The DOP on the movie Christo Bakalov had a crazy time with the cast since they would break into a song and once you hit the smooth road they wouldn’t be in their form for him to shoot.”

The sets of 5 Weddings never had a dull moment with the star cast and the director having a good time laughing along with the entire crew. The three have expressed their affection for one another with Rajkummar Rao commenting at Stree’s success party that, “I have immense respect for our director (5 Weddings), Namrata Singh Gujral. She is a wonderful lady”. Even Nargis commented to a recent UK publication that, “Namrata is a dream to work with. I am very fortunate and blessed.”  To both of which Gujral responded, “There was absolute joy on the sets with Raj and Nargis and bringing their crazy, loving spirits to location every day”.

5 Weddings will release on October 26th, 2018.
