Alia Bhatt Does Her First Rain Song For Akshay Kumar's Rustom, Watch Video

Alia Bhatt sizzles in a yellow sari as she gyrates seductively to "Tip tip barsa paani" - a la Raveena Tandon -- as a promotional stint for Akshay Kumar's forthcoming release "Rustom".

 

The song had originally featured Akshay with Raveena, and is said to be one of the most sensuously shot rain songs in Bollywood.

 

After a string of Hindi film celebrities like Ranveer Singh, Varun Dhawan and Arjun Kapoor chose their own unique way to promote Akshay's "Rustom", Alia decided to do it this way.

 

She shared a video in which she is draped in a bright yellow sari, and she grooves to the 1990s song like no one's watching.

 

After the video ends, Alia is heard saying: "Kya kar rahe ho yaar, cut! Mujhe kya dekh rahe ho...jaake 'Rustom' dekho na... One day to go! (What are you doing guys? Cut! What are you watching me for? Go watch 'Rustom'...One day to go)"

 

"The madness that comes along with the excitement! Just One day for 'Rustom' Akshay Kumar, Ileana D'Cruz, Esha Gupta," she captioned the 43-second video.

 

Directed by Tinu Suresh Desai, Akshay's 'Rustom' is slated to hit the silver screen on Friday. The thriller, inspired by a real life incident in the 1950s, also features Ileana D'Cruz, Arjan Bajwa and Esha Gupta.
