Actor-director Saahil Prem has roped in Dr Zeus to create a song for his maiden venture, Mad About Dance (MAD). The song, Assi Punjabi Munde Haan, will mark the UK-based singer-music producer’s debut in Bollywood.

Saahil was clear that he didn’t want the usual fare of lyrical songs for MAD, which is being presented by Essel Vision. He believed that instrumental tracks would do justice to the dance battles shown in the movie and hence, picked them up from Indian music producer Sharan and other music producers in Germany , UK and USA.

However, he was more than happy to make an exception for Dr Zeus. “His songs Kangna and Jugni Ji were hits, but he hadn’t specially produced anything for Bollywood. It was cool of him to agree to create a number for us. He dropped by on our location in Sheffield when Assi Punjabi... was being filmed and has also made a brief appearance in the song,” says Saahil.

Mad About Dance, produced by Paanch Rupaiya Barah Ana Productions and Sunday Talkies, releases August 22.
