Sha has been that for me. Not just the music composer of Dhurandhar but someone I see as a younger brother, someone I’ve shared chaos, silence, ideas and some of the most intense creative days with. What he’s done on this film still …

Dhurandhar composer explains the thought behind ‘Shararat’: ‘I wanted to feel desired’ | Bollywood News

4 min readNew DelhiFeb 1, 2026 02:44 PM IST Ever since Aditya Dhar’s much-anticipated Dhurandhar hit theatres, the film has made headlines for multiple reasons. One of the biggest talking points has been its music—particularly “Shararat”, which quickly went viral alongside “FA9LA” by Flipperachi. While “FA9LA” managed to stay clear of controversy, Shararat found itself in the spotlight after the song’s choreographer claimed that Tamannaah Bhatia was initially considered but later dropped, with Ayesha Khan and Krystle D’Souza ultimately being brought on board. Although the issue was later resolved, the song continues to generate discussion—this time for the story behind its creation. In a recent conversation with Galatta Plus, Dhurandhar composer Shashwat Sachdev, a longtime collaborator of Aditya Dhar, opened up about what inspired “Shararat”, revealing that the song was deeply personal and rooted in his own lived experiences. ‘Always carried baggage of being born in third-world country, lower middle class family’ “Shararat is a very special song for us,” Shashwat said, adding, “I grew up carrying the baggage of being born in a third-world …

The MATH of making a blockbuster trailer: What made 4-minute Dhurandhar trailer stand out, ‘Ranveer Singh appeared for only 1 minute’ | Bollywood News

The MATH of making a blockbuster trailer: What made 4-minute Dhurandhar trailer stand out, ‘Ranveer Singh appeared for only 1 minute’ | Bollywood News

In Vijay Krishna Acharya’s Tashan, Bhaiyaji (Anil Kapoor) declares, “first impression is the last impression.” This very phrase has travelled across time, questioned, replaced, and often dismissed. Yet it survives in one space with near total authority: the trailer. It is the first and often the only conversation a project has with its audience. It is a perfect fusion of marketing instincts alongside storytelling sensibilities. At a moment when box office returns offer little assurance, tentpole films struggle to sustain runs, independent films fail to secure screens, and theatrical visibility itself feels uncertain, the work of those designing a trailer has grown heavier. The pressure no longer sits only with directors and producers; it spills into the editing room. Rajeev Chudasama, founder of MA+TH Entertainment, a content marketing agency that has worked upon promotional material for several major films and series, and most recently on Dhurandhar’s widely discussed trailer, puts it simply: “The first-day number is mostly determined from the trailer alone. That places the weight on us as well. Directors and producers keep reminding …

Dhurandhar music review: Ranveer Singh may play edgy undercover agent, this album is a hardworking deskie at best | Music News

Dhurandhar music review: Few movies get such a big countdown to release day, with all the pomp and circumstance, as Aditya Dhar’s directorial Dhurandhar has received. Ever since the first look was revealed, which had Ranveer Singh smoking like Thomas Shelby of Birmingham, Dhurandhar is all anyone has talked about. The first look also gave the fans a chance to eavesdrop on the music for the film, as it featured the title track. Furthermore, everyone was beyond excited that composer Shashwat Sachdev had revisited the classic qawwali ‘Yeh Ishq Ishq Hai’ from the film Barsaat Ki Raat (1960). But once you listen to the whole soundtrack, nostalgia starts feeling more like the easy way out rather than innovation. Bollywood composers are nefariously known for picking up entire tracks and their compositions for their own songs, as inspiration, of course. But some composers have proved that it can be done with some kind of subtlety and grace, like Shantanu Moitra displayed with the song ‘Kaisi Paheli Zindagani’ from Parineeta. The track was sampled from Louis Armstrong’s …
