Gangadevi, a Bhojpuri film to be released in May, has a sequence of Amitabh and Jaya celebrating the festival of colours. Amitabh gave his Holi shots for Gangadevi at Film City in Mumbai on February 10, a day before he was hospitalised for an abdominal surgery.
According to the producer of Gangadevi, Deepak Sawant:The mood on the set was that of celebration. Amitji enjoyed the sequence. He was overjoyed as Jayaji, too, had joined the celebration. I know Amitji for 40 years. I do not think that he ever got any opportunity to play Holi with Jayaji in any film.
Amitabh has lent his voice to the song for the Holi sequence in Gangadevi. Everybody talks about Rang Barse of Silsila as the most popular Holi song. But Maan Hoke Patang, Jhume Aang Aang, Barse La Rang Phagua Me, the four-minute song in Gangadevi, will evoke a similar response.The credit for the lyrics also goes to Amitabh. Another attraction of the film is Jayaji singing a line of the song.
