Bachna Ae Haseeno

Bachna Ae Haseeno (transl. Watch Out, Beauties) is a 2008 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor, Bipasha Basu, Deepika Padukone, and Minissha Lamba, and features supporting performances from Hiten Paintal and Kunal Kapoor. The title was taken from the 1977 song "Bachna Ae Haseeno" from Hum Kisise Kum Naheen, which starred Kapoor’s father, Rishi Kapoor. The narrative follows a commitment-phobic man who reflects on his past relationships and attempts to make amends with the women he once wronged.

The film marked Anand’s third directorial collaboration with Yash Raj Films, following Salaam Namaste (2005) and Ta Ra Rum Pum (2007). Principal photography took place across multiple international locations, including Switzerland, Italy, Australia, and India, with cinematography by Sunil Patel. The music was composed by Vishal–Shekhar, while lyrics were penned by Anvita Dutt Guptan and Sandeep Shrivastava.

Released theatrically on 15 August 2008, coinciding with India’s Independence Day, Bachna Ae Haseeno received mixed-to-positive reviews. Critics praised its soundtrack, styling, and visuals, with particular acclaim directed towards Basu’s performance. The film emerged as a commercial success, grossing ₹61.57 crore (US$7.6 million) worldwide, making it the eighth highest-grossing Hindi film of the year.

At the 54th Filmfare Awards, the film received three nominations: Best Supporting Actress (Basu), Best Male Playback Singer (KK for "Khuda Jaane"), and Best Female Playback Singer (Shilpa Rao for "Khuda Jaane").
