Scherzinger says as behind-the-scenes footage from the set of The Pussycat
Dolls' "Jai Ho" music video starts off. The singer then says that the video,
shot at a Vienna trainyard, will capture scenes "from every point of people
around the world and represent from every place."
Giving a sneak peek into the music video, the footage reveals Thomas Kloss as
the man behind the lens and A.R. Rahman making a cameo. Highlighting a crowded
market scene, it shows all the members of The Pussycat Dolls sporting
Bollywood-themed costumes and performing a dance sequence, which is similar to
the one seen in movie "Slumdog Millionaire".
Jai Ho is originally a Hindi song performed by Indian singers Sukhwinder Singh
and A. R. Rahman for the soundtrack of the Dev Patel-starring film. The track
is then re-recorded by The Pussycat Dolls with English lyrics and Nicole
Scherzinger's vocals leading the lines.
"It's an honor to be able to collaborate with A.R. Rahman and be a part of the
'Slumdog Millionaire' project in any way," Nicole says in a statement. "The
movie, the story and the music [were] a gift and very spiritually uplifting for
me. ... I can only hope and pray 'Slumdog Millionaire,' and my version of 'Jai
Ho' ('You Are My Destiny') touches and connects people all around the world."
