In an interview with Pinkvilla, the filmmaker admitted that it wasn’t smooth sailing.“We went to Goa for the composition of the Hai Rama song. We were there for five days. First day he told me, ‘Ramu, I’m just thinking of something, I’ll make you listen tomorrow.’ Second day he said something else. Third day he said something… all five days he was not doing anything. And then he said, ‘I’ll do one thing, I’ll go to Chennai and I will send you from there,” RGV shared.The filmmaker added, “And then he told me, ‘Next time you get me to a hotel, make sure there is no TV. Because all this time I was watching TV.’ I wanted to hit him, you know. But then, when he finally came up with that Hai Rama song, obviously, I guess for great things one needs to have the patience to wait. And it’s worth it at the end of the day, which is what he proved.”About RangeelaIn Rangeela, Urmila Matondkar played Mili, a woman from a middle-class family, who aspires to be an actor.
