MUMBAI: Last week, the world got introduced to Champak, Genda and Gulab, the stupidest Bank Chors ever. First, their antics made everyone laugh out loud in the Bank Chor trailer, that trended number one on YouTube for three days, and has cumulatively crossed 10 million across the Y-Films social media platforms within a week. Then, the film’s Imaandaar trailer managed to rake up a social media storm as the three chors gave a hilarious dose of imaandaari that Bollywood’s never seen before.
And now, in the title song of Bank Chor, innovatively titled ‘Hum Hain Bank Chor’, the worst chors ever come together for what is certainly the worst Bollywood item song ever! They dance, gyrate and shake their booties in an attempt to lure the audience into watching the film, falsely proclaiming that they are awesome chors. But the truth about their stupidity is fairly visible all through the song.
Written, composed and sung by Kailash Kher, instead of featuring an A-list Bollywood superstar in the video, the song features the incompetent trio of Champak, Genda and Gulab yet again. Fortunately, the song also features Rhea Chakraborty, who plays a reporter, Gayatri Ganguly in the movie, so there is still something to cheer about.
Says Riteish Deshmukh, “Just like the rest of the film, 'Hum Hain Bank Chor' is also hilarious because in the song, the three idiot chors believe that they’re actually smarter than everybody else. So for a change, it was fun for me to make everyone dance to my tune, because in the rest of the film meri tashreef lagi hui hai!”
Adds composer-lyricist-singer Kailash Kher, “After creating history with iconic songs like 'Teri Deewani', 'Saiyaan', 'Allah Ke Banday', I’m all set to destroy that with 'Banday Hai Hum BankChor…' all on Y-Films doing. Jokes apart, this was really special as it showcases a mad, naughty and fun side of me that not many people have been exposed to. So after soulful sufi comes stupid masti… hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it!”
