The most recent song from Sonam Kapoor's The Zoya Factor is out and it isn't exactly the romantic number you might want to woo your beloved with. Including Sonam Kapoor and Dulquer Salmaan, the song was released online Wednesday evening.
Titled Maheroo, a new song is a romantic number sung by Yasser Desai. Amitabh Bhattacharya has written the lyrics while Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy have made the music. It is a fairly normal song with totally forgettable lyrics. The video, as well, accompanies the typical beginning to look all starry eyed at shots like the lead couple cosying up as they ride a bicycle in a seaside town or jump into a pool.
Sharing the song, Sonam tweeted, "Ek aisa gaana jo dil ko chu jaayega. Presenting to you this love ballad from #TheZoyaFactor. #Maaheroo out NOW! http://bit.ly/MAHEROO."
In light of Anuja Chauhan's 2008 book by a similar name, The Zoya Factor stars Dulquer as a star cricketer and Sonam as an ad agency executive who ends up being a lucky charm for him. Sonam's real uncle Sanjay Kapoor plays her father in the film, which likewise stars Angad Bedi in a vital role.
Discussing her co-star, Sonam had recently stated, "I have been brought up to think it doesn't matter as long as the role is amazing. But there were a few, like Dhanush, Dulquer, Rajkummar, and Ayushmann, who I worked with in a couple of films. There are a lot of these men out there and they are all doing better than everybody else right now. Because they realised its not about who's leading the film. It's about the film and what are you trying to say with the film. That's progressive, incredible and these days that's what's working — progressive, content-driven cinema."
Abhishek Sharma has directed the film which will release on September 20.
