Raveena Mehta adds the diamonds in the 75th Cannes Film Festival

 

The 75th Annual Cannes Film Festival has become the most trending event of the year and the global representation on the red carpet has been extraordinary! Marking 75 years of Indian independence, the Indian representation has been massive.

What a beautiful sight!

 




Being her fourth year attending the prestigious event, she wore a custom couture gown by designer Dimple Amrin, celebrating the 75th Year i.e. the Diamond Jubilee of the event. When asked Designer Dimple Mehta of Dimple Amrin about the inspiration for the dress, she mentioned, “the custom gown for Raveena Mehta was created with the intent of celebrating 75 years of Cannes Film Festival. 75 years is marked as a ‘diamond jubilee celebration. The first-ever diamond was found in India. So, it was only fitting to share love from India with Singer Raveena Mehta adorned in diamantés and Diamond jewelry. This being the key inspiration behind this year's custom gown, which is bedazzled in platinum diamanté chains.”

 




True talent and innovation from this glorious designer, as she indeed put a shimmering mark on our country’s name! This year, the beautiful and glamorous singer will be performing at Tiffany’s Red Carpet Week Fashion Show at the Hermitage Hotel in Monaco amongst the fashion elite as well as shooting her next music video at Cannes!

The simply beautiful lyric for the song is provided by Shraddha Sehgal.

 

In the words of Music Composer Anand Bhaskar, “I had an absolute blast working on this music for ‘First Second Chance.’ I truly got to work with people I love and look up to. An overall extremely talented bunch of people. Starting with Lakshmi, the director of the film and the CCO – The Chief Chatterbox Officer - as I like to call her. I also got to work with my friends, Keshav Parthasarathy and Shravan Sridhar who added their own bits to the music. It’s a dream come true to work on the same project as Resul Pookutty Sir. My long-time friend Shraddha Sehgal who has written a bunch of songs for me. One of my favourite singers from the country and probably one of the best – Hamsika Iyer – who is such a bright spark for everyone. It was an amazing experience working with Renuka ma’am and Ananth sir who are absolute sweethearts and legends in their own rights. A wholesome family experience, and that is the film all about as well. I cannot wait for the film to come out and have people hear our music as well.”

 

On the other hand, Lyricist Shraddha Sehgal says, “_Haanji, Naaji Me Umar Guzaari, Mile Hum Abki Baari_. These lines sum up the essence of the song and the film ‘First Second Chance,’ that the super talented Lakshmi Iyer is about to bring to the world. I am so glad to get to write the song. Do hear it, it’s a marvel created by Anand Bhaskar. Hamsika ma’am’s voice is the perfect voice for it. It has created magic and every word is expressed meaningfully. It will surely reach your heart. Anand is an amazing talent and he trusted me to write this song on a sensitive topic and I am so glad that it fits the plot beautifully. I remember being at Lakshmi’s and being stunned to see so much energy and positivity in her. She is so much fun to work with and I can’t wait for more. We have grown watching Renuka Ji and Ananth Ji on screen and now to work with them on the same project seems like a fantasy. I feel blessed to work with such experienced and renowned bunch of artists. The cast and crew of the film has put in a part of themselves in it and we hope the audience love it just as we did while making it.”

 

Singer Hamsika Iyer shares, “Did I enjoy my song? _Haaji_. Was I stressed while working on the song? _Naaji_. I’ll never forget the day when I got the call from Lakshmi R Iyer for her film. I was even happier when she conveyed that the music composer is Anand Bhaskar – a person whom I have always admired, his musicianship, vocals, energy, a very hardworking and a cool guy. I’d also like to extend my thanks to Shraddha Sehgal for the amazing yet simple lyrics. Shravan Sridhar and Keshav Parthasarathy, you guys are amazing. The kind of vibe that these guys bring into any songs is just infectious. Thank you, Prathamesh, for putting all the elements beautifully in all places. I have always been a huge admirer of Renuka Shahane and Ananth Mahadevan, and it feels amazing to be a part of a project that has incredible talent. Once again, thanks to Lakhsmi for giving me _Haanji_ and _Naaji_.”

Holi track in film Prithviraj



Akshay Kumar’s next is Yash Raj Films’ first historical, Prithviraj, which is based on the life and valour of the fearless and mighty King Prithviraj Chauhan. He is essaying the role of the legendary warrior who fought valiantly to protect India from the merciless invader Muhammad of Ghor in this visual spectacle.

 

The film will also focus on the beautiful love story between Prithviraj and his beloved Princess Sanyogita, played by the ethereally gorgeous debutant Manushi Chhillar, former Miss World 2017. In keeping with their strategy to only release teasers of the songs to hold back the visual extravaganza of the film to create more anticipation, Yash Raj Films today teased a glimpse of the first song of the film, Hadd Kar De – a Holi track that promises scale and a peak into the romance of Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan and Princess Sanyogita.

 

Akshay loves the fact that all songs used by Yash Raj Films in Prithviraj are original compositions, a rarity in the Hindi film industry today that belts out remix after remix and have been criticised for its lack of originality. He says, “What I love about the songs in our film based on Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan’s life is that they are all original music! Today, hardly any film can boast of this and I love the album dearly because the songs are not in the film just for the sake of it.”

 

He adds, “The songs in our film take forward the narrative of the script and it has been written and strategically designed to express the said scene way, way better. The Holi song (Hadd Kar De) is a track that comes when the audience is told about how beautiful Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan and Princess Sanyogita’s romance was.”

 

Akshay further explains, “Theirs was a relationship of equals and I love that both parties strived to have a straight-forward relationship that was built on trust, mutual admiration and respect. It is a crucial song that shows the pure relationship that the two share and tells the audiences to see the film also as a romance and not just an epic historical film.”

 

Manushi says, “Hadd Kar De was the very first song we shot in the film! While prepping for the movie in general, I was learning a little bit of Kathak and practicing a little bit semi-classical. For Hadd Kar De, it is mostly semi-classical. There are few elements of Kathak in it. It is a very beautiful song about celebrating Holi. I still remember it was a wet Holi on the sets. So, I was wearing a lehenga and it was soaking up all the water so it was getting heavier and I was dancing with 250 dancers and I was matching their energies.”

 

She adds, “On the day of the song shoot I was very nervous and I had called my parents to come watch the shoot! They came on set and it was a really good experience because they got to know how movies are made and what actually happens behind the scenes. That was also the first time they came on any film set.”

Cannes 2022: Pooja Hegde brings her Pan-India queen energy to the red carpet

With an unrivalled filmography spanning across languages to her credit, Pooja has charmed her way into everyone’s heart with her onscreen prowess. Aligned with that, her presence at the annual festival not only underlined her contribution to Indian cinema, but also extended a lens into her take on its future.

 

In the presence of the brightest stars of Indian cinema Pooja said, “I've not come (to the Cannes Film Festival) with a brand, but I've come with brand India. I've come (here) as a representative. There cannot be a bigger honour for me to be very honest to come (here) as an Indian actor celebrating Indian cinema.”

 

She added, “Representing Indian cinema at a global platform as prestigious as the Cannes Film Festival is a dream come true. It's a great validation of the direction I'm heading in my career.”

 

Post the Cannes Film Festival, Pooja will continue shooting for Salman Khan's Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali while also promoting Rohit Shetty's Cirkus. She also has SSMB28 with Mahesh Babu on her schedule.
