By: Mohnish Singh

Last seen in Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl (2020), which premiered on Netflix, Janhvi Kapoor is presently busy promoting her next film Roohi. Today, the makers dropped a special dance number from the upcoming film, which has been picturised on Kapoor. Titled Nadiyon Par, the peppy song happens to the be first real dance number for the actress.


When asked about the entire process of shooting for her first dance number, Kapoor told an online publication, “It all happened at very short notice. We were always supposed to shoot for a promotional number, but it was another song.”

She went on to add that producer Dinesh Vijan called her to inform her about the song when she was shooting for a film in Patiala. “Dinoo had this song and wanted it to be filmed on me. We had to shoot for the song in just a night and I was very excited. There was little time to prep for it, and Dinoo sir had given all the responsibilities on my shoulder. He said, ‘you are the producer of this song, take care of it’, so I was like fine.”

Talking about her dance skills, the actress said, “I am not really a trained dancer, maybe like whenever I got a break from work, I used to do Kathak. I have done a couple of sessions in Belly dancing too, and that is all.”

Produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films in association with Jio Studios, Roohi is a horror-comedy film, co-starring Rajkummar Rao and Varun Sharma. Directed by Hardik Mehta, the film is set to release in theatres on March 11, 2021. It is going to be the first major Hindi film to have a theatrical release in the midst of the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. The makers are planning to release it in around 1500 screens across India.

'Stranger Things: Tales From ’85' review: Netflix returns to Hawkins too soon but gets one thing right

Highlights

  • Stranger Things: Tales From '85 arrives just weeks after the divisive Stranger Things finale
  • The animated spin-off trades trauma-heavy storytelling for humour, faster pacing and classic monster chaos
  • New character Nikki emerges as one of the franchise’s most interesting additions

Netflix returned to Hawkins before fans had time to miss it

The biggest talking point around Stranger Things: Tales From '85 is not its monsters or animation style, it is its timing.

Netflix has brought viewers back to Hawkins unusually quickly after the finale of Stranger Things split opinion online. For some fans, that makes the spin-off feel rushed. Set shortly after season two, the story takes place before Vecna’s arrival and before Robin Buckley became part of the core group.
