We only met during the shooting of the video and after that we have been in touch. The lyrics he wrote are so personal, and he made the song about me and us. An all-Korean song topped the Billboard charts, so why not a Hindi song?' Chopra also commented on her collaboration with Pitbull: 'Working with Pitbull was great-he is hugely creative. It has a mix of Hindi and English, since the world is so global.
So the video has Indian-inspired dance steps too.
We Indians really know how to party, man! And the world needs to see that. As I said, this is a summer song and we have so much fun in our Hindi movies and songs. He said, 'Yeah, let's try that'-and I quickly wrote the lyrics and sang it and he loved it. After Pitbull sent me his lyrics I suggested to 'Exotic' producer RedOne that we could consider having some Hindi lyrics. 'In My City' has some Indian instrumentation to give it flavour.
But in all my tracks I want to have some aspect of my Indian identity. Chopra spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the song's composition and about the inclusion of Hindi language lyrics: 'My upcoming album is in English and 'Exotic' was initially going to be in English too. The song contains both English and Hindi lyrics. 'Exotic' was written by Pitbull, Chopra and RedOne and produced by RedOne. Pitbull is featured in 'Exotic' and co-wrote the song.
