5 Reasons why you must not miss 'Dhanak'

Soulful music!

A movie is never complete without a good soundtrack and 'Dhanak' does score beautifully in the songs department. The superhit and renowned qawwali 'Dum-A-Dum Mast Qalandar' which is used in this movie along with an English touch to it, is alluring visually. The singers Chet Dixon & Devu Khan Manganiyar have lent it an amazing folk feel which really connects with us and stays in our mind for a long time. The other songs like 'Jeene Se Bhi Zyada', 'Chal Chalein', are bright and soulful. So yes, with such a hit soundtrack, the movie surely becomes a must watch for all music lovers out there!

The impeccable kids!

The film's main leads played by Hetal Gada and Krrish Chhabria as the two children Pari and Chotu are simply adorable and look amazingly confident in the movie. Their chemistry as brother-sister is surely striking a chord with the audiences, as is evident in the trailers and songs of the movie. We cannot wait for these kids to take us on an emotional and fun journey in the movie.

Vision of Nagesh Kukunoor!

Director Nagesh Kukunoor's distinctive style of story-telling, not to forget he has given us some beautiful movies like 'Dor', 'Iqbal' and 'Rockford' in the past, makes this an eagerly awaited movie.

The Khan war with a new twist!

In the movie, the two characters Pari and her younger brother Chotu who is blind, are diehard fans of the Khans. Pari loves Shah Rukh Khan whereas Chotu loves Salman Khan. So the SRK-Salman angle in the story portrayed through sibling love is something that's quite interesting and not to be missed.

The film is already a winner!

Even before its theatrical release, 'Dhanak' has already garnered rave reviews internationally and won multiple international awards including the Grand Prix at the Berlin Film Festival (Generation K Plus section), Best Film Award in the main category-Children's Feature Film Competition-Cinema in Sneakers (film festival), and the Best Film Award - at the Montreal International Children's Film Festival (FIFEM), which makes this a highly anticipated movie.

We have seen films with unique storylines earning acclaim from the critics and the audiences alike. So here comes another tale from the maker of films like ‘Iqbal’ and ‘Dor’, Nagesh Kukunoor‘s latest offering ‘Dhanak‘. The word ‘Dhanak’ originally means rainbow in Urdu and this film encapsulates the magical journey of two kids Pari and Chotu, as they look for Shah Rukh Khan across the vibrant Rajasthan desert. The theme of the movie revolves around a sister’s undying love for her younger brother who is blind and her promise to regain his eyesight before his 9^th birthday.
