Help Identify Indian Pop Video!

Message Bookmarked

Last year I spent a lot of time taping off People TV, which is Atlanta's local access show. Anyways often they had India TV on, which was a program that showed a bunch of Indian pop music videos. I taped a few but never caught the names and was wondering if anyone could identify what group or song this was:

There are two teenage girls and it starts off as a show-down by a big pool I think, like a massive after-dinner party dance-off, where each one has a group of dancers with them while they sing their parts. I think they are supposed to be sisters, but maybe just best friends.

Then it goes into a series of scenes where they are hanging out in their room, pillow fighting, jumping around like crazy, and singing with their white stuffed animal. At one point the music gets funky and they do silly/sexy poses for the camera wearing leopard print robes and sunglasses, then in slow motion they walk to the pool and take them off and they are wearing matching rainbow dresses. Then it's an above shot from the pool, still singing the song.

There's a shot after that of them dancing around the room with Mickey Mouse ears on and red t-shirts that say "Hot" in big white letters, and their dad is in a business meeting. They come up and he gives them cell phones and they jump away happily, then teach their mom the dance they've been doing..

There's a bit more to this video, but this is the most memorable stuff. It's awesome and the song is really catchy, but I'd feel silly to try and write down some of the words. Anyways, please email me or post if you can help!!

I really hope someone here can answer this, even if it's a fluke..

i can't help, but i feel for you - we have an indian music video show on a PBS station and if you miss the movie/artist at the beginning you'll never know who it is. i did discover some hotness through that show, though, like "choli ke peeche" and "dum maro dum" from the "hare krishna hare ram" soundtrack.

two weeks pass...
I'm reviving this, cos I just hooked up my video capture card and mpg'd a verse or two from this video. I'm going to leave it up at this link until Saturday night (EST) but probably longer if i forget to take it down then..

Here it is

If anyone can identify this song, or even who it's by, or who those two girls are, or if it's from a movie, or anything: please email me!! Or just post a response..

hugs

you could ask in the alt.binaries.indian.mp3 newsgroup. there's usually some good listening material in there.

Can't see the video in the workplace, but I'm guessing the song is "Piya Piya" for the movie "Har Dil Jo Pyaar Karega". The two actresses are Preity Zinta and Rani Mukherjee.
