‘Kalank’: Pritam speaks up on Alia Bhatt-Madhuri Dixit’s Kathak dance song

Pritam is quite excited about the new song from ‘Kalank’, ‘Ghar More Pardesiya’. He has been receiving a lot of praise from people all over for the fantastic dance number that he has created. The song has already made a huge mark on YouTube and is slowly growing every day. So how does so much appreciation feel to the composer?

Pritam says, “I haven’t done any period film earlier, so ‘Kalank’ being the first one is making me extremely nervous.” Describing his apprehension about the genre he adds, “Its the genre which made me wonder initially whether I would be able to do justice or not.”

Speaking specifically about the song Pritam says, “This is my first song picturised on Kathak visuals and this is a Raag based song. The dance is the backdrop of Ramayan where this is a love song of Sita.” Well, indeed the song has been greatly praised for the classical touch to it.

Describing the song further, Pritam said, “I have collaborated with a lot of Indian musicians which is very exciting and I rarely get to do this kind of stuff. Also, the young audience today who are 19-20 year old, they don’t get to hear Bollywood songs which are Raag based, in classical and in pure Kathak form. So I hope this song works and can promote more of Kathak and classical music among the youth.”

Well, Pritam it’s already caught up with the people. We are eagerly awaiting the release of the next song from ‘Kalank’ tomorrow. Starring Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapur, Madhuri Dixit, Sanjay Dutt, Kiara Advani and Kriti Sanon, the film is set to hit theatres on April 17.
