Mimi will premiere on Netflix and Jio Cinema on July 30
As the nation dances to the peppy tunes of Param Sundari from Mimi, music sensation A.R. Rahman has produced yet another memorable melody for the film – Rihaayi De. The soulful track sung by the legend himself, in his soothing voice, is nothing less than a treat to the ears.
Pictured around the protagonist Mimi, played by Kriti Sanon, the song depicts the personal turmoil in her life despite the world around her in a celebratory mood. Feeling confined to her fate, Mimi looks for someone to free her as the words “Kaun tujhko rihaayi de” perfectly depict her situation. Penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya, the song with its soothing composition and deep lyrics is going to stay with music lovers for a very long time.
The film stars Pankaj Tripathi, Saie Tamhankar, Manoj Pahwa and Supriya Pathak, apart from Evelyn Edwards and Aidan Whytock. It revolves around Mimi (Sanon), a young woman who is introduced by Bhanu (Tripathi) to an American couple (Whytock and Edwards) for surrogacy. As the couple offer ₹20 lakh for surrogacy and later want it aborted, a pregnant Mimi decides to deliver it claiming Bhanu as the father of her child.
The film was completed predominantly in Mandawa and Jaipur, barring a few days in Mumbai. The original songs and background score are composed by A. R. Rahman, lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the theatrical release of the film was delayed. The film is scheduled to premiere through Netflix and JioCinema on July 30,
