Sanjay Leela Bhansali‘s upcoming web series Heeramandi has been the talk of the town since its announcement.
This movie is expected to be a full-on musical and is said to have a series of songs that will be true blockbusters.
As per reports, a source says, “SLB has already composed 20-35 songs for Heeramandi, of which he will use 16-20 songs in the series. Three will be semi-classical songs but nothing that the young listener cannot identify with. Heeramandi is not for audiences of the Pakeezah/Umrao Jaan era. SLB has designed it as attuned to today’s youngsters.”
“Kotha hai, naach-gana toh hoga. But not to the extent that we saw in legendary films on the kotha culture like Pakeezah, Umrao Jaan and Sadhana. It will be more to the taste of today’s youngsters. Also, SLB wants to make it an upbeat series. Normally films on the kotha and tawaif end on a note of tragedy.These tawaifs in Heeramandi are happy souls. They deserve a happy ending.Both Netflix and Bhansali will make sure of that,” the source ended.
However, as the source there won’t be too much of classical dancing or singing.
Are you excited for this movie to take over your hearts?
