Javed Jaffrey turns rapper for Jackpot

6 Nov 2013

Javed Jaffrey, who was last seen in the satire War Chhod Na Yaar, has bagged yet another film but this time as a singer. The versatile actor who has experimented with varied genres from comedy to negative roles is a well known choreographer but rapping is something we haven't seen the actor doing often.

For the upcoming Sunny Leone starrer Jackpot , Javed Jaffrey will be rapping a song which is a new quirky take on corruption titled Eggjacktly . The lyrics of the song which go something like, ' Foreign scam, Coalgate, cricket ho ya tail, Big shot jhol karo and take the bail ' aims at portraying corruption that exists in different sections of the Indian society. Coincidentally, Javed has been associated with that term ' Eggjacktly ' since Salaam Namaste days and the makers are planning to cash on that popularity. Javed has also sung the superhit rap song ' Mum-Bhai ' for Kaizad Gustad's last release Boom . Jackpot , directed by Kaizad Gustad, also stars veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah, Sachiin Joshi and is slated to release on December 13.
