Odhani and Sanedo from Made In China are ruling the charts this Navratri

Rajkummar Rao and Mouni Roy starrer Made In China is slated to release on Diwali this year. However, the songs of the film, Odhani, and Sanedo are making a mark during the ongoing festival of Navratri. Both the songs have great music and have a perfect Gujarati flavour to it which gels well with the festival of Navratri.

Talking about both the songs getting a fantastic response, producer Dinesh Vijan 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."


In the song Sanedo, we get to see Rajkummar and Mouni doing a couple of Garba steps as well. Talking about it Roy said, "This was my first attempt at Garba. We have a small Garba sequence in one of the scenes in the film as well which was choreographed by Vijay Ganguly and Shruti taught me how to do it. Taking cues from there, Raj and I decided to try our hands at some Garba choreography in Sanedo. Given our love for dance, Mikhil's brief of just having a good time and doing our own thing without directed choreography was like leaving two kids at a candy store. We just went all out. It was so much fun and we enjoyed every bit of it."

Raj added, "I love Garba as a dance form. While shooting for Sanedo, Mikhil's brief to us was to let loose and add our bit to the choreography wherever we wanted. Keeping up with this classic Navratri number, Mouni and I decided to break into our own version of an impromptu Garba!”

Directed by Mikhil Musale, Made In China also stars Paresh Rawal, Boman Irani, and Amyra Dastur.

Investment gap

Britain is seeking to attract new pharmaceutical investment as part of its plan to strengthen the life sciences sector, Chancellor Rachel Reeves said during meetings in Washington this week. “We do need to make sure that we are an attractive place for pharmaceuticals, and that includes on pricing, but in return for that, we want to see more investment flow to Britain,” Reeves told reporters.

Recent ABPI report, ‘Creating the conditions for investment and growth’, The UK’s pharmaceutical industry is integral to both the country’s health and growth missions, contributing £17.6 billion in direct gross value added (GVA) annually and supporting 126,000 high-skilled jobs across the nation. It also invests more in research and development (R&D) than any other sector. Yet inward life sciences foreign direct investment (FDI) fell by 58per cent, from £1,897 million in 2021 to £795 million in 2023, while pharmaceutical R&D investment in the UK lagged behind global growth trends, costing an estimated £1.3 billion in lost investment in 2023 alone.
