Thank God star Sidharth Malhotra talks about Nora Fatehi starrer Manike; explains it’s not an item song

Sidharth Malhotra, Ajay Devgn, and Rakul Preet Singh starrer Thank God has finally hit the theatres. Though Thank God created a lot of buzz before its release, the film had an average opening. Interestingly, a section of the audience is going to theatres to watch Nora Fatehi flaunting her smooth moves in the song ‘Manike’. 

Thank God star Sidharth Malhotra talks about Nora Fatehi starrer Manike; explains it’s not an item song

For the unversed, the Hindi version of singer Yohani’s original track, ‘Manike Mage Hithe’. Recently, Malhotra briefly talked about the song and said that it is the main song. He also added that ‘Manike’ is not 'just an item song'.

In a conversation with News18, Sidharth said, “It’s the main song in the film. Nora (Fatehi) plays an interesting character; she doesn’t come in for the song alone. It’s very well integrated into the story as opposed to it being just an item song. We’re happy that people are liking it.”

Elaborating his take further, the SOTY actor added, “Nora and I’ve done many songs in the past but the first time I’ve danced with her is in ‘Manike’. We did a song in Marjaavaan (‘Ek Toh Kum Zindagani’) as well where I was just looking at her dance. At that time, I had told her that the next time we do a song, I’ll make sure that I do some moves and that’s what we did with ‘Manike’.”

Later, the Jabariya Jodi actor also spoke his mind on his recent film Thank God facing legal issues. He asserted, “While reading a script, you’re looking at the story. I feel at times it’s not fair to watch one snippet and judge a whole film. You can’t judge a book by its cover. I’m waiting for people to actually see the whole two hours of the film and then have a discussion and dialogue on why a character is saying something. Then they can decide what we’ve done and what the tonality and our intention is. That’s the correct way to judge a film.”

Directed by Indra Kumar, Thank God was released on the occasion of Diwali, which was October 25, 2022.

23 Years of Lagaan: “A famous painter heard 'O Paalanhaare' and told me, ‘Tum jhooth bolte ho. Ek atheist aisa bhajan nahin likh sakta’” - Javed Akhtar

One of the greatest films of all time, Lagaan (2001), completed 23 years on June 15. Starring Aamir Khan and Gracy Singh, it was a fictional period drama about a group of villagers learning cricket, a game alien to them, and playing it against the British. In the pre-climax, when the villagers fear defeat, they collectively pray to God. This is when 'O Paalanhaare' is played and it leaves viewers teary-eyed. The song took a life of its own and is one of the most loved film devotional songs of all time. Many are surprised to know that Javed Akhtar, an atheist, penned this track. At a show ‘Main Koi Aisa Geet Gaaon’, the legendary songwriter opened up about this song and confessed that he got this surprising reaction often. He also revealed how he responds to such comments in his trademark humourous style. Javed Akhtar said, “A famous painter, Chanda, called me and said, ‘Javed, tum apne aap ko atheist kehte ho. Tum jhooth bolte ho. Ek atheist...
