Powerful dialogues

Music that will keep you entertained
The Prassthanam jukebox offers a platter of distinctive and delightful music, with songs that range from drama, a foot-tapping romantic duet, a youthful dance number to a heartwarming Sufi Qawwali.
Three of the five songs on the album are composed by Vikram Montrose and one each by Ankit Tiwari and Farhad Samji. While the title track Prassthnam boasts of high intensity, dramatic beats, Ankit Tiwari's 'Dil Dariyan' will have you humming its gentle romantic notes. There is a upbeatness in the celebratory joy of Charo Khane Chit', and young dance energy about the rustic Dil Bevda.
Finally, we have the beautifully sung Sufi-Qawwali, Haji-Ali by Sukhwinder Singh that takes the listener on an emotional journey. This playlist is a medley of songs that will stay with the listener for ages to come.
For these reasons and more, Prassthanam will surely be the first choice of cinema-goers this week!
