Yash Raj Films’ SUI DHAAGA – Made In India Music Out Now!

The Sui Dhaaga album, consisting of five songs, is a melodious journey, where each track embodies different facets of human emotion. With Anu Malik’s emotional compositions, artfully penned lyrics by Varun Grover, and distinct voices of talented singers like Papon, Ronkini Gupta,  Divya Kumar and Sukhwinder Singh the album is a breath of fresh air. The classical roots lend the album a timeless and universal appeal.

Song: Chaav Laaga 
Singers: Papon and Ronkini Gupta 
Music: Anu Malik 
Lyrics: Varun Grover 
This is a romantic, melodious track. It is picturised on Mauji and Mamta, and complements their feelings of finding love within the constraints of life and circumstances. The words depict the joy of a married couple who have just started discovering each other. 

Song: Tu Hi Aham 
Singer: Ronkini Gupta 
Music: Anu Malik 
Lyrics: Varun Grover 
This is a nirgun bhajan, which plays on an altered idiom where the God is separated from the religion. This soulful song is about devotion, but at the same time, a sense of unity with the divine - a kind of unity where one can address the God as 'tu' and call them 'waham'. 

Song: Khatar Patar 
Singer: Papon 
Music: Anu Malik 
Lyrics: Varun Grover 
This song celebrates the spirit and joy of finding your life's purpose. It captures the camaraderie between the characters in the film, and demonstrates the positive attitude with which they choose to fight each obstacle together. With its upbeat tune and optimistic lyrics, the song manages to be philosophical and yet fun. 

Song: Sui Dhaaga 
Singer: Divya Kumar 
Music: Anu Malik 
Lyrics: Varun Grover 
This ballad is an ode to the millions of craftspeople across India. It evokes the strength of their endurance and persistence, and illustrates their struggle through metaphors about objects in their daily lives. It is a track illustrating life’s hardships with gravity, but is still like a soothing lullaby.

Song: Sab Badhiya Hai 
Singer: Sukhwinder Singh 
Music: Anu Malik 
Lyrics: Varun Grover & Anu Malik 
This is a festive track, brimming with positivity. ‘Sab Badhiya Hai’ is almost like an anthem for Mauji, or a catchphrase, something that keeps him motivated and moving forward. The melody is universally appealing, and inspires the spirit of dancing through life.

Divyanka's unstoppable


Safe to call her the Queen B of the telly world, Divyanka Tripathi's popularity is unmatched making her the top followed TV actress on Instagram which is followed by the premium brands associating with the actor.
Like Bollywood who earlier ruled brand endorsements, television actors have made a headway & are on their wish-list. Divyanka currently endorses a couple of brands juggling with her on going show Yeh Hai Mohabattein!

Earlier this week Divyanka was on a roll & made the optimum use of all her working hours in the day by fulfilling 3 professional commitments in the same day.

A source close to the actor's show shares, 'Divyanka is perennially on the go. She' shooting long hours for the show for most of the days in a week. Apart from that, brands keep wanting to associate with her. She utilized her day off to the optimum, she first shot for a shampoo ad, later changed into a pretty gown & dressed to kill for Star Pariwar Awards Music Video & later changed 18 dresses for a saree catalogue.

Nawaz looks to Rasika for her honest critique

Rasika Dugal needs no introduction. The actor who will be playing Safia Manto in the upcoming film by Nandita Das has already been garnering a lot of attention and praise for her role since the Cannes film festival. The actress who has worked in both films and theatre for many years is passionate about cinema and filmmaking and it shows in each film she chooses.

Currently busy with promoting the film, Rasika and her co actor, Nawazuddin Siddiqui who plays Manto himself have been talking a lot about the film and hosting screenings for various press houses and groups of people. Post each screening, there is a ritual the two extremely talented actors follow, it is to critique each other’s work. While both actors didn't want to fall into the trap of over articulating during shoot, they are talking about all the details now that the film is complete and ready for release.' We often talk about the scenes that worked, the moments that had caught us unaware. How a scene had felt while shooting and how that has/or has not come to life on screen; which of my scenes he liked the most and vice versa. It is rare to get honest feedback in this business. And from the people whose opinion you trust. I get to learn a lot and totally enjoy these conversations with Nawaz.' While audiences have always known, Rasika Dugal is a volcano of talent, we can now safely say, it is true as Nawazuddin believes in her credibility too.

Safia Manto who was the author’s backbone every step of the way was a strong lady herself. Unfortunately not much has been said about her until now. Slated to release this September, audiences will get to watch the story of Manto and his strong wife, Safia
