Made In China: Odhani and Sanedo take over New York’s Times Square

From the day the trailer of Made In China has been released, the music is something that has grabbed everyone’s attention. After the trailer, the makers have released two songs of the film titled Odhani and Sanedo. Both the songs have become chartbusters.

As the festival of Navratri is going on, both the songs are in the playlist of people to do Garba on it. But well, the songs are not just popular in India, but even overseas they are making a mark. Recently, a video of a flash mob went viral in which we can see a few dancers grooving on Odhani and Sanedo at New York’s Times Square.


The flash mob has been performed by the dancers of Bollywood Funk, a dance institute in New York that teaches Bollywood choreography. Well, we can clearly see that all the dancers are enjoying a lot while grooving on the songs and people passing by are quite interested in watching them dance. We must say that from the lanes of India to the streets of New York, songs of Made in China are surely making a mark.

While talking about the songs getting a great response, producer Dinesh Vijan had earlier said, "With the film being set in Gujarat, we really wanted to do something special this Garba season. It was important to us to represent the culture and music in a way that takes you down nostalgia lane but also gives you something new to groove to. We’re overwhelmed by the response Odhani and Sanedo have received, our digital handles are constantly buzzing with messages and videos from people across the country and we're looking forward to seeing the Garba fire spread far and wide."

Made In China stars Rajkummar Rao, Mouni Roy, Amyra Dastur, Boman Irani, Paresh Rawal, Sumeet Vyas, and Gajraj Rao. Directed by Mikhil Musale, the film is slated to release on Diwali this year.
