The video for Arijit Singh’s latest song ‘Pachtaoge’ has been released. The video, which plays out like a mini film, sees Vicky Kaushal and Nora Fatehi play lovers. While the couple are dining together, Nora leaves the meal after she gets a text message from someone else. Vicky follows her and finds her in the arms of another man. A heartbroken Vicky reminisces about happier times while Nora and her new lover share a dance.
Watch the video here:
‘Pachtaoge’ explores themes of love and betrayal. Directed by Arvindr Khaira and produced by Bhushan Kumar, the video has been filmed in Shimla. The song is part of Arijit Singh’s upcoming album ‘Jaani Ve’.
The makers had earlier teased a poster and short clip from the song.
Speaking about shooting for the video with Nora, Vicky told Mumbai Mirror, "She's a person who radiates positivity and we had a lot of fun shooting with her. When I heard the song for the first time, I was hooked and played it for the longest time."
Vicky Kaushal was recently honoured with a National Film Award for Best Actor for his role in Uri, which is based on the retaliatory surgical strikes carried out by the Indian army in POK in 2016. On the film front, he will be seen in two Dharma Productions titles – the period drama Takht and Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship, the first of a new horror film franchise. He will also step into the shoes of Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw in Meghna Gulzar’s upcoming biopic.
Nora Fatehi is part of John Abraham’s Batla House, which hit theatres on 15 August. She will next be seen opposite Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor in Remo D’souza’s Street Dancer 3D.
