BOMBAY TIMES (April 30, 2015)
RJ Anirudh Chawla, who has
directed one of India's first reality films Sabki
Bajegi Band, produced by Yusuf Shaikh, had recorded candid conversations
on sex and relationships of some Page 3 and B-Town celebs at a private
party hosted by him, which he later converted into a feature film that
is now ready for release. In a letter to his Bollywood friends whom he has taken advantage of, he says:
Dear Guys,
I am really sorry about what I did last year at my farmhouse party. I betrayed your trust and breached your privacy by recording on hidden cameras our intimate conversations about your past relationships, affairs, marriages, sexual fantasies, rivalries and kinks. I did so purely out of the greed for sensationalism.
After you threatened to sue me, I was forced to hold back the footage and sign a legal document that I will never release the footage. But because I believe the world needs to know the truth about Bollywood and its darkest sexual secrets, I recreated the events of that night and changed your names to protect your identities. I'm now ready to release India's first reality film, Sabki Bajegi Band.
Believe me, I have made no attempt to malign or judge you. In fact, I hope that this film inspires Indian audiences to go home and talk openly about sex, love, marriage with their friends and family the way you have so bravely shared with me that night.
I hope we continue to be friends. No hard feelings please! And ya, it's about time sex comes out of the closet in India!
Yours truly,
Anirudh Chawla

Sabki Bajegi Band spoofs Bollywood affairs with a song

MUMBAI MIRROR (April 20, 2015)
In a very smart move,
director RJ Anirudh--who has written the song himself (with vocals by
Tochi Raina and Chintu Bhosle, Asha Bhosle's grandson)-has refrained
from using the real names of the super
stars..but the pet names and the film references are only too obvious.
Sample this: KJO ko kuch kuch hota hai..SRK, do u understand?...liya ash
ne dabangg stand, kiya sallu ko tata and..abhi khush hai abhi ke
saath..lolo, i am sure does understand---when bebo met mr fida..ishq
vishq hua, no vivah....kat ko bahut dogs mile, sheela ke peeche sabke
duum hile.
The flamboyantly outrageous video of the song has been made by a fan of the film, as part of a karaoke song contest! Of course, RJ Anirudh claims that the song is a tribute to bollywood's grandest “silly-sillas“ and that he didn't mean to offend anyone..and anyway, all this is in the public domain anyway..but it remains to be seen whether bollywood appreciates this tribute and laughs it off or as Anirudh says, “bajaos my band“! The film Sabki Bajegi Band a Percept Pictures presentation of a Yen Movies production is produced by Yusuf Shaikh and written and directed by RJ Anirudh Chawla releases all over in cinemas on 1st May 2015.

Sabki Bajegi Band to 'expose' Bollywood celebrities

BOMBAY TIMES (April 7, 2015)
Sabki Bajegi Band promises to expose some of Bollywood's
darkest sex secrets. RJ Anirudh Chawla, who has directed this film,
apparently got the idea after he hosted a farmhouse party last year.
Unknown to his celebrity guests comprising Bollywood actors and models,
he reportedly placed 12 cameras in secret locations to record their
intimate conversations that revolved around sexuality, kinks, fantasies,
marriages, affairs and rivalries.
The raw, uncensored footage was so scandalous that the radio jockey decided to turn it into the country's first reality film! It is being said that when the celebrities heard about the film 'revealing all', they threatened to sue him for breach of privacy. So, he devised a novel way of presenting what he had recorded to an audience that he knew would enjoy it. Names were changed and events were dramatised using actors like Swara Bhaskar, Sumeet Vyas, Amol Parashar, Alekh Sangal and Aman Uppal.
Produced by Yusuf Shaikh and directed by Anirudh, the film has a tagline that says it all: No mercy, only controversy. The teasers, which use blurred images and dialogue posters, have generated curiosity, as has the film's trailer, which released recently.
