The makers of ‘Sherdil: The Pilibhit Saga’ had dropped an intriguing trailer of the film two days back, directed by Srijit Mukherji. The song titled Dhoop Paani Behne De from the film will be released on Monday, which is crooned by late iconic singer KK. This will be the first song to be released after his demise.
Film critic and movie trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter and announced the news on Sunday. He wrote, “‘SHERDIL’: KK SONG OUT TOMORROW… #TSeries and #RelianceEntertainment will unveil #DhoopPaaniBahneDe – the song sung by #KK, penned by #Gulzar and composed by #ShantanuMoitra – from #Sherdil tomorrow.”
Krishnakumar Kunnath aka KK passed away in Kolkata late on May 31. He was 53. He was in the City of Joy to perform at an event organised by a local college.
A dark humour-laced satire, “Sherdil: The Pilibhit Saga” is inspired by true events. It gives a peek into the adverse effects of urbanisation, man-animal conflicts and poverty leading to a bizarre practice in a village on the edge of a protected forest.
The film will hit the theatres on June 24.
‘Sherdil: The Pilibhit Saga’ is presented by Gulshan Kumar, T-Series Film and Reliance Entertainment, and produced by Bhushan Kumar and Reliance Entertainment with Match Cut Productions.
