Hullo Atuldom

Just heard this absolutely melodious Holi song in the voice of Shreya Ghoshal which I felt should find a place in this blog.

It is from a recent film- “Begum Jaan” which released in 2017 (already 8 years). It was directed and co-written by National Film Award-winning director Srijit Mukherji in his Hindi directional debut and produced by Mukesh Bhatt, Vishesh Bhatt and Play Entertainment. The film is co-produced by Sakshi Bhatt and Shree Venkatesh Films with executive producer Kumkum Saigal. Lyrics, additional screenplay and dialogues have been penned by Kausar Munir and Rahat Indori. Anu Malik was the music director of the 6 songs that were sung by Asha Bhonsle, Shreya Ghoshal, Kavita Seth, Sonu Nigam, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Srijit Singh, Kalpana Patowary, Altamash Faridi, and Anmol Malik (Anu Malik’s daughter).
