Bittoo Boss is a movie that has the most different category
associated with films and the censor board in India - that of Parental
Guidance! This different and new concept has made producer Kumar Mangat
extremely happy with the movie’s proceedings.
There was trouble about a track sung by Mika with original
lyrics, “Bittoo sabki lega….photo” but the issue has already been overcome. The
censor board objected to these lyrics, saying they lend themselves to double
meaning. The movie team was quick to react and immediately, producer Abhishek
Pathak, who is Kumar Mangat’s son, along with music composer Raghav Sachar,
changed the lyrics of the song to “Bittoo sabki photo lega” and recorded it in
Sachar’s voice before re-approaching the censor board. The song was soon re
recorder in Mika’s voice.
Raghav Sachar said, “The song was on YouTube when censor
disapproved it. For the TV promos, we manipulated the lyrics from ‘Bittoo sabki
lega…photo’ to ‘Bittu sabki photo lega’. As soon as the song was passed, I
rushed to Haryana to Mika’s farmhouse to record the new version. We will be
soon releasing it on channels. The Internet version will remain the same.”
Mika said, “We have turned the lyrics so there is no scope
for double meaning. The new version sounds as good though. I have always been
lucky for Viacom. Whenever they’ve made a promotional video, they’ve featured
me.”
The song has not been included in the film so far and is
being used only for promotion purposes.
