Sweating it out: Yana Gupta in Murder 2

The Babujee girl is B-Town's 'in' item girl. After heating things up in Chalo Dilli with Laila O Laila, she faced the heat while shooting for Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt's flick. The shoot was at Chandivali Studios on a non-AC floor and with several unit hands milling around.

Says Yana, "It was very hot as there was no air conditioning. But it was for the Bhatts after all. I loved the team."Director Mohit Suri adds, "It's true that it was very hot but I must say Yana understood the circumstances and co-operated with us that we finally got what we were looking for. Yana worked totally for our song. "

Bipasha Basu was the original choice for the song but as reported 'Bhatts show Bips the door' (Hitlist, March 28), the star's exorbitant demands made the makers rope in Yana instead. "I think Bipasha not doing the song worked in my favour but what's more important is that it worked in favour of the song too!" Yana quips.
