Bollywood is on a new high these days. All actor turned politicians are returning to their original roots - acting. But Jayaprada, a veteran actress, a good dancer and Samajwadi Party MP is going a step extra by singing and performing on a hip-hop number in a Hindi suspense flick that is being produced by her.

Her company Jayaprada Entertainment, which has so far been producing movies down South, is making a Hindi film and she will also do some acting in it. To promote the film she will sing and dance to a song which will feature a modern Jayaprada.

“You will see me in a new look. I have a particular image in Hindi films. But this modern, hot look will break that image,” she revealed. “I was involved in the project since the scripting stage. The role that I play is extremely challenging. Also, I have never done a suspense thriller in my life. So I thought why not take this opportunity of producing and acting in one,” she added.

Bhappi Lahiri the director of her film persuaded the actress for singing the song. Jayaprada said, “Bhappida insisted that I should sing a song in the film. I thought, why not? I am known as a dancer, but I have always also had the passion for singing. I am so glad that I will be singing a song with Adnan Sami, whom I have so admired as a singer.”
