Ranveer Singh might work with Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra

Buzz has it that Ranveer Singh, who was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ₹ 300+ crore film Padmaavat (2018), is set to sign his first film with renowned Bollywood filmmaker, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra who is known for movies such as Aks (2001), Rang De Basanti (2006) and Delhi 6 (2009). According to reports, the duo recently met at Mehra’s office and discussed the project.

Reportedly, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has two scripts ready for two new films. While one of the ventures revolves around the game of Kabaddi, the other one is about a bond shared between a father and son duo. However, it is still unclear as to which project Mehra is planning to commence first.


"Ranveer and Rakeysh met and discussed about working together. The filmmaker has bounced off the ideas to Ranveer, but nothing has been locked yet. They are going to have a few more meetings before they zero in on the film," says a source.

Talking about Ranveer Singh's forthcoming projects, the actor has a lot on his platter. He will next be seen in filmmaker Zoya Akhtar’s Gully Boy. Co-starring Alia Bhatt, the movie is scheduled to open in theatres on 14th February, 2019. Apart from that, Singh also stars in Karan Johar and Rohit Shetty's joint production, Simmba. His next will be 83, to be directed by hit filmmaker Kabir Khan, wherein he plays Kapil Dev.

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.
