Madhubanti Bagchi calls singing King’s Tu Mil Jaaye a dream run
The Story in Brief
Madhubanti Bagchi, who sings Tu Mil Jaaye with Arijit Singh and Ed Sheeran in the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer King, has called the experience a 'dream run'. In an interview with Variety India, she said the song was filmed on Khan, whose films were part of her childhood, and called having her voice in it an 'incredibly special feeling'.
She said working with Arijit Singh was 'incredible' and called Ed Sheeran 'a very special addition to this collaboration'. The track, released on 2 November, features Khan with Deepika Padukone. King, directed by Siddharth Anand, releases on 24 December.
Bagchi begins her This Is Who We Are India tour on 14 November and said she would love Arijit Singh to join her on stage for the track and their Bengali duets.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both NDTV and Bollywood Hungama report the same interview with Madhubanti Bagchi and cover it in near-identical fashion, leading with her 'dream run' comment and her wish to have Arijit Singh join her tour. The two outlets differ only in detail: NDTV adds that Bagchi had earlier worked with Sachin-Jigar on Aaj Ki Raat, while Bollywood Hungama notes her upcoming Jailer 2 track with Anirudh Ravichander and Rajinikanth. Neither outlet offers any critical or political angle, the coverage is uniformly promotional, focused on the song's release and the film's success. The next concrete event is the 14 November start of Bagchi's tour.
