Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor in Befikre
When we say there's a whole lot of kissing, we mean - there's only kissing. Filmed in Paris, there are young couples, an old couple in wheelchairs, middle-aged couples, even a pair of kids - also kissing. They kiss on the banks of the Seine, in front of the Eiffel Tower, on cobbled streets, outside cafes and on a park bench.
Stills from Befikre song Labon Ka Karobaar
The subtitles explain why kissing is so very important.
Watch Befikre's song Labon Ka Karobaar (minus Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor) here:
Those who are well versed with the Yash Raj Films universe will find the concept quite similar to the song Ek Duje Ke Vaste from Yash Raj production Dil Toh Pagal Hai. This song (used in the beginning credits) started off with dialogues spoken separately by lead actors Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit, but focused on universal relationships with couples of all ages.
Twitter was divided in opinion about the kissing.
Some were for:
#Befikre is not a documentry on kissing. I still feel that they have a point to this type of marketing.

Some were against:
Nothing against onscreen kissing, but I need a backstory & buildup 2 enjoy it. Felt uncomforable watching strange ppl kiss.Befikre is weird.
