  We give a framework for molecular multiphoton excitation process induced by
an optimally designed electric field. The molecule is initially prepared in a
coherent superposition state of two of its eigenfunctions. The relative phase
of the two superposed eigenfunctions has been shown to control the optimally
designed electric field which triggers the multiphoton excitation in the
molecule. This brings forth flexibility in desiging the optimal field in the
laboratory by suitably tuning the molecular phase and hence by choosing the
most favorable interfering routes that the system follows to reach the target.
We follow the quantum fluid dynamical formulation for desiging the electric
field with application to HBr molecule.
