If made on a huge scale with an interesting narrative and great visual effects, mythological shows are always welcomed by audiences. Almost every leading general entertainment channel in India has one or two such shows on their network, which goes on to prove their huge popularity among Indian masses.
After airing several such shows in the recent past, Colors is now gearing up to launch yet another mythological show in months to come. Titled Luv Kush, the show is set to begin production soon.
Currently, the makers are busy locking actors to play lead characters on the show. According to latest media reports, TV actor Himanshu Soni has been signed on to play an important role on the show. He is most likely to play the character of Lord Rama in Luv Kush.
The latest we hear that Swastik Pictures, the production house producing the show, has now finalized talented actress Shivya Pathania to play the role of Sita. Shivya became a household name after essaying pivotal roles in such hit shows as Humsafars, Ek Rishta Saajhedari Ka and Dil Dhoondta Hai.
Insiders reveal that Shivya Pathania has verbally agreed to come onboard. She will sign the project on the dotted line soon.
Ranveer Singh’s rugged new look anchors the high-energy music video.
Rapper Hanumankind makes his official Bollywood début with a fierce verse.
Modern take on the classic Punjabi folk tune 'Jogi'.
Glimpses of Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Rampal in the mix.
The full trailer lands next month.
The Dhurandhar title track just hit the internet, and the noise around this spy thriller just went up a few notches. This is the track that pulls rapper Hanumankind into his first proper Bollywood playback moment. They have taken the old folk number 'Jogi' and built a power-packed version around it, a mix of earthy roots and straight-up aggressive energy that hits like a truck. It fits, honestly. It mirrors the film's whole gritty vibe and Ranveer Singh's battle-hardened look with that wild beard.

What is the Dhurandhar title track about?
You get a proper blast of the film’s atmosphere from this track. The music video cuts fast between shots of a heavily bearded and muscular Ranveer Singh, looking every bit the part of a hardened operative. The video cuts to the other big names in the cast as well. Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal are all there in what appears to be a tense, dark situation. The music includes traditional Punjabi folk with a stronger, cinematic rhythm.
How did Hanumankind get involved in the Dhurandhar song?
It turns out his involvement was a pretty organic, almost spontaneous thing. Music composer Shashwat Sachdev opened up about how the rap section came together. Apparently, it happened during a late-night studio session with director Aditya Dhar and Hanumankind himself. They captured an impromptu performance that just clicked, bringing what Sachdev called a "raw, instinctive fire" to the whole track. For an artist known for his independent work, this Dhurandhar feature is a major step into the mainstream film scene.
All this build-up is heading towards a definite date. The makers confirmed it right at the end of the title track video. Dhurandhar is locked in for a worldwide theatrical release on 5 December of this year. For those who need more than a song to tide them over, the official trailer is promised for 12 November.
