The first look of the movie was released as part of the 64th Cannes Film Festival.[25] A promotional poster was released during a press conference in which Ronnie Screwvala of UTV Motion Pictures, Madhur Bhandarkar, and Aishwarya Rai officially announced the movie.[26] The director said, "The movie is a glamorous yet bold story of the internal journey of a superstar. I am certain it will appeal to audiences across the globe and Aishwarya was a perfect choice for the role. In fact, no one could've played it better." Screwvala stated "With Heroine, we plan to take things to the next level. When you watch the film, you will feel that the role was written with someone as talented and stunning as Aishwarya in mind."[27] The actress too admitted that she was "looking forward to this new journey in the movie." It was also announced that Rai will have a wardrobe of more than 40 outfits designed by Manish Malhotra in the film.[28] Explaining why he was launching the project in Cannes, Screwvala alluded to Rai's star power saying, "She is the brand ambassador for India and for Indian cinema when it comes to the French Riviera." The actress was quick to deny any reference to her personal life being portrayed in the movie and said that the entire idea was a result of Bhandarkar's conceptualisation.[29] The official press release distributed as a part of the announcement stated that "The film is based on the life and times of a superstar heroine, Mahi from the dream factory we call 'Bollywood'. The film is a daring, shocking, glamorous, scandalous behind-the-scenes account of the reality behind the world of glitz and glamour that our film stars inhabit. For a country obsessed with films and film stars, Heroine will take audiences on a voyeuristic journey to see what really goes on in the lives of India's sweethearts."[30]
The trailer was released on 25 July 2012. After the release of the trailer, a controversy arose. In the film's promo, a dialogue of Kareena Kapoor: "If a heroine buys a car, it's gifted to her by a businessman. If she goes to LA (Los Angeles), she's getting plastic surgery done and, god forbid, if she goes to Dubai, you people make a rate-card for her," was not appreciated by the people of Dubai. To avoid hurting sentiments, director Madhur Bhandarkar has had the offending statement censored in the Dubai version. He clarified, "We have censored it. There are some people who have raised objections. But we did not mean to demean anyone, Dubai is my personal favourite city."[35]
During the shooting of the film, Bhandarkar revealed that there would be 2 big item numbers in the film, both to be picturized on the leading lady. One of them, "Halkat Jawani", sung by Sunidhi Chauhan[36] was released as a single track release on 17 August 2012.[37][non-primary source needed] Musicperk.com rated the album 7/10 quoting "Although songs like 'Halkat Jawani', 'Khwahishein' and 'Tujhpe Fida' sound nice and enthusiastic as independent tracks, others probably would need to rely on the picturization of the song for the required effect to be created".[38]
The music and background score of the film is composed by Pritam Chakraborty, and lyrics were written by Swanand Kirkire, Ashish Pandit, Neelesh Misra and Sayeed Quadri.

Killing Them Softly doesn't immediately begin with familiar music, but rather establishes a specific mood through visceral realism as criminals plot against each other. When the first mainstream song arrives, it's to boost the introduction of a major American movie star. The rest of Killing Them Softly's songs underscore pivotal character moments, which usually involve at least one man losing his grip on the American Dream. Here's every featured song on the Killing Them Softly soundtrack:
A slightly off-track musing on th esubject of party songs.Is not very surprising that the hero or heroine would pour out very personal emotions in the presence of so many people. And that the bystanders also would continue sitting or listening(?), seemingly disinterstedly! [I think all human beings are inherently gossip mongers, hence when you get such a public opportunity on a platter, would any one reamin so disinterested?)
When I saw songs of both Jab Jab Phool Khile and Mere Sanam (both 1965) in the list, I was reminded of that interview given by Shashi Kapoor a long time back. Apparently, shooting for both the movies were happening around the same areas. Shashi along with a few other crew members dressed up as Muslim girls and went over to tease Biswajeet. Shashi remembers him being so flustered at so many girls coming towards him from all sides.
Lovely collection of Kashmir related songs.There is one song,a comparatively new song by Kailash Kher,which i really like.. it shows an old man, asking for return of the peaceful Kashmir. its a hindi song from a malayalam movie based on the Kargil war.If you would permit,shall post the link here
Haider movie songs also show Kashmir in very different way. Very appropriate in that movie hence worth a mention. Personally I do not like those songs. I cannot listen/view to those songs outside the movie. 2ff7e9595c
