Mumbai, Feb 15 (NationPress) Actress Kaveri Kapur, who is preparing for her Hindi film debut in ‘Bobby Aur Rishi Ki Love Story’, has received high praise from the acclaimed Grammy and Oscar-winning music composer A. R. Rahman.
The actress is garnering significant acclaim for her new single ‘Ek Dhaaga Toda Maine’ from her debut movie. This track has been composed and sung by Kaveri, with the Hindi lyrics crafted by Prasoon Joshi and produced by Rahman.
Expressing his admiration for Kaveri, Rahman stated, “Songwriting, particularly personal reflections in poetry, is a rare gift that not everyone possesses. Kaveri seems to have this talent innately, influenced by her lineage and her distinct perspective on the world. I enjoyed collaborating on this track with her, co-producing it, and I wish her immense success.”
‘Ek Dhaaga Toda Maine’ is a poignant song that Kaveri enhances with her enchanting and soothing voice. The lyrics explore the chaos of life and the ways to navigate the complexities it presents.
Kaveri previously mentioned that she views Rahman as her mentor, who has guided her throughout her musical journey.
She reminisced about composing ‘Ek Dhaaga Toda Maine’ at the age of 15, originally in English titled Reminisce. Upon sharing it with Rahman, he showed interest in producing it. Subsequently, when her ‘Bobby Aur Rishi Ki Love Story’ director Kunal Kohli heard the song, he requested its inclusion in the film's soundtrack. This led to Prasoon Joshi being brought in to create the Hindi lyrics, bringing the song to life.
In other news, Rahman recently addressed the controversy surrounding ‘India’s Got Latent’ involving comedian Samay Raina and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia. At a recent event, he chose the emoji demonstrating hands over the mouth, commenting, “This past week has shown us the consequences of speaking out.” His response received much applause.
