Anubhav Sinha to next direct Pavitra Papi

Right after the smashing success of his courtroom drama Mulk (2018), starring Rishi Kapoor and Taapsee Pannu, filmmaker Anubhav Sinha had started shooting for a multi-starrer titled Abhi Toh Party Shuru Huyi Hai. Now since he wrapped up the film recently, the director has started working on his next project.

According to reports, Sinha will next direct a film titled Pavitra Papi. Since the project is still in its early stage, no major details have come out. The casting of the film will begin only after the script is locked.


Talking about Anubhav Sinha’s upcoming release Abhi Toh Party Shuru Huyi Hai, the movie offers a satirical take on the circus of coalition politics in India. The project is backed by Sony Pictures Networks Productions (SPNP).

The ensemble star cast of the satirical film includes Saurabh Shukla, Pankaj Tripathi, Vinay Pathak, Pavan Malhotra, Kumud Mishra, Manoj Pahwa, Dilip Prabhavalkar, Cyrus Broacha, Prateik Babbar, Richa Chadha, Divya Dutta, and Shriya Pilgaonkar.

Earlier Abhi Toh Party Shuru Huyi Hai was scheduled to release in 2018, but now it will hit screens this year. The official release date is expected to be announced soon.

TroyBoi returns to his Indian roots with Rootz EP using Lata Mangeshkar’s voice to redefine British diaspora music

Highlights:

  • TroyBoi’s five-track EP Rootz is a personal return to the sounds of his childhood, released via Ultra Records in September 2025.
  • The single Kabhi uses an officially cleared sample of Lata Mangeshkar’s vocal from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
  • Collaborations with Amrit Maan, Jazzy B and BombayMami plug Punjabi, Bhangra and south-Asian textures directly into modern trap and bass production.
  • This EP is part of a wider wave: British artists born into diasporas are using heritage not as garnish but as foundation.

Some albums hit you in ways you don’t see coming. Rootz is one of them. Not just another trap EP. TroyBoi, the London-born producer known for global bass and trap, has made something that’s also deeply personal. He didn’t just want to make music that bangs in clubs; instead, he wanted to reach back to the India of his childhood. And he did it with Rootz.

The track everyone’s talking about is Kabhi. Because it’s not just sampling Bollywood. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice was officially cleared for use on a non-Bollywood release, a milestone reported by multiple outlets. It’s history. It’s memory. And it’s a bridge.
