The first song, ‘Dear Country’ from Anurag Kashyap’s upcoming dark comedy, Nishaanchi will be unveiled by the makers on August 13. The makers shared a teaser of the song on Tuesday to make the announcement.
The song seems to be a satirical take on patriotism blending elements of folk music and adding English lyrics to it. The teaser video features a bunch of wrestlers running behind a character in the film who has a gun in his hands. A singer is shown to be singing the song in a humorous way.
Sharing the teaser, the makers wrote, “Meherbaan, kadardaan, deshwasi aur thode-confused naujawano, Taiyaar ho jaaiye! Kal aa raha hai gaana – ‘Dear Country’! Filam ‘Nishaanchi’ Yaad se dekhiyega zaroor (Respected patrons, valued supporters, countrymen, and slightly-confused youngsters. Get ready! Tomorrow, the song ‘Dear Country’ is releasing! From the film Nishaanchi. Don’t forget to watch it!”
Earlier, the film’s teaser was released which featured a filmy style qawwali in a world brimming with music, dance, high-octane action, unfiltered drama, and double-trouble.
As per an earlier press release Nishaanchi has been described as “a film delves into the complex lives of two brothers who walk starkly different paths, uncovering how their choices shape their destinies.”
The crime-drama-comedy marks the debut of Aaishvary Thackeray, in a double role. It also features Vedika Pinto, Monika Panwar, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, and Kumud Mishra.
Speaking about the film earlier, Anurag had said, “We wrote Nishaanchi in 2016. Since then, I have been looking to make this film the way it should be, and was looking for a studio who trusted me to do that, whole heartedly. Amazon MGM loved it, believed in it, and became the wall behind us. This is exactly what happened with all my films that people love - they were backed by great producers and great studios.”
Produced by Ajay Rai and Ranjan Singh under Jar Pictures, in association with Flip Films, the movie is written by Prasoon Mishra, Ranjan Chandel and Anurag Kashyap. The film will release in theatres on September 19.
