Subhash Ghai's next big movie, Kisna, is already making waves at the 35th International Film Festival of India, which is on in Goa.

Music director A R Rahman played two songs from the film at the opening ceremony on November 29. Singers Udit Narayan, Madhushree and Sunita Sarathi accompanied him. The other music director of the film, Ismail Durbar, was also present.

Hulchul at the box-office!

This one is no Tere Naam!


The music of Kisna, which includes songs in Hindi and English, will be released officially on December 6. Javed Akhtar has written the lyrics. "I have spent a lot on the music," says Ghai. 

The film stars Vivek Oberoi and dancer-turned-actress Isha Sharvani, who Ghai claims he found 'after scouting around several schools in Mumbai.'

The movie is about an Indo-British relationship and a foreigner's experience in India. The love story tries to bind two nations amid political hatred.

"I would have asked [the organisers] to screen the film here if it was complete," said Ghai. Kisna is scheduled for a January 21 release.
