In the second half of the anthem, National Award-winning actress Anjali Patil appears in a powerful role as a police constable. Zarina Wahab is seen leading a protest movement, while Ashwini Kalsekar leaves a strong impact through emotional moments. This portion beautifully blends women empowerment with social resistance and emotional strength.

The lyrics are filled with valor, patriotism, respect for khaki and the spirit of women power, creating an uplifting and inspiring experience for audiences.
The music and lyrics of the film have been composed by Manik Batra, while the film is directed by award-winning filmmaker Zaigham Imam. The Narmada Story is an emotional and powerful crime drama set in Madhya Pradesh, telling the story of the struggle, courage and fight for justice led by a tribal woman and a woman sub-inspector.
Director Zaigham Imam says, “The anthem of The Narmada Story is not just a song, but a tribute to women power, duty and the spirit of khaki. Through this anthem, we wanted to emotionally and powerfully portray the courage, discipline and sacrifice of the Madhya Pradesh Women Police. Along with patriotism, the song also reflects the spirit of a woman who stands strong in the face of every challenge. Since Simala Prasad herself is a real-life IPS officer, her personality and screen presence have made the anthem even more authentic and impactful. Our aim was to create an anthem that fills every woman, every police officer and every Indian with pride and energy.”

Ulka Gupta starrer 'Rajni Ki Baraat' Trailer Out, Comedy, Melodrama and Firing Make It an Interesting Entertainer
Comedy, Melodrama and Firing Add a Fun Twist to Rajni Ki Baraat Trailer
The much-awaited trailer of Rajni Ki Baraat has finally been released. Packed with comedy, melodrama, romance and chaos, the trailer promises a complete desi entertainer. Powerful moments featuring Kerla story 2 Fam e Ulka Gupta in a bold avatar, Ashwath Bhatt in a commanding role, the melodramatic presence of Sunita Rajwar and veteran actress Zarina Wahab create several funny and dramatic moments that make the trailer thoroughly entertaining. The trailer beautifully captures the rooted flavor, dialect and family culture of Hindi-speaking states.
The trailer opens with a pandit saying, “There are no signs in the horoscope that a wedding procession will arrive at the house.” Reacting to this, Zarina Wahab’s character angrily says, “Please check properly.” Meanwhile, Rajni’s mother, played by Sunita Rajwar, gets emotional and says, “We will celebrate the wedding grandly… if the wedding happens in a big hotel then why would the baraat come home… am I right?” Her voice chokes with emotion before she adds, “Our Rajni is one in a million, we will find the best groom for her.”
The trailer then takes a romantic turn as Rajni and Rajjan confess their love for each other. But this is where the story takes an unexpected twist. Facing the powerful character played by Ashwath Bhatt, convincing her emotional mother and family to join her mission, and winning the trust of her lover — Rajni’s baraat is filled with twists and turns. Why does Rajni decide to take out her own wedding procession, and why does her unusual baraat face so many challenges? The trailer keeps audiences intrigued with these questions.
In the final moments, sudden gunfire adds another dramatic twist before the trailer ends, leaving behind several unanswered questions. The 2-minute-27-second trailer is packed with desi humor, comic confusion, emotional drama and complete chaos.
Produced under the banner of Epiphany Entertainment, the film is produced by Tanaayaa Adarkar and Tej H. Adarkar, while Aditya Aman has directed the film. Mohsin Khan serves as the associate producer. The film stars Ulka Gupta, Kanishk, Eshita Singh, Sunita Rajwar, Zarina Wahab and Ashwath Bhatt in pivotal roles.
Speaking at the trailer launch, actress Ulka Gupta said,
“Rajni is a girl who can go to any extent for her love. This character has emotions, comedy and madness all rolled into one. Rajni represents a strong girl from Bihar who listens to her heart and has the courage to face every challenge. The mix of comedy and drama in this romantic and emotional story will give audiences a very entertaining experience.”
Producer Tanaayaa Adarkar said,
“Rajni Ki Baraat is not just a love story, but also a story about family, relationships, dreams and the passion of a young girl. We have made the film with complete desi flavor and entertainment. The chaos, comedy and drama seen in the trailer are only a small glimpse of the film. We believe audiences will connect deeply with Rajni and her unique baraat.”
Rajni Ki Baraat is set to release in theatres on 29 May.

Ever since the trailer launch, The Ward has been creating waves across social media and digital platforms, with viewers praising the show for showcasing the real emotions, fears, joys, sacrifices, and transformations that come with becoming a mother. More than just a reality show, The Ward is emerging as an emotional experience for families, mothers, daughters, partners, and everyone who understands and values the unconditional love and strength of mothers.
Positioned as a first-of-its-kind reality format, The Ward brings together 10 pregnant women under one roof for 10 days as they prepare for one of the most transformative phases of their lives. Set inside a specially designed maternity ward environment, the show captures emotional and unfiltered moments as the participants navigate societal expectations, changing relationships, personal aspirations, and the realities of motherhood. Coming from diverse backgrounds, the women gradually form meaningful emotional bonds while opening up about personal struggles, family dynamics, and emotional pressures associated with pregnancy and motherhood, making The Ward a deeply relatable and heartfelt experience for audiences.

Speaking about the show, Rubina Dilaik shares, “Motherhood changes you emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. It is beautiful, overwhelming, and life-changing all at once. The Ward felt extremely personal to me because it reflects so many emotions women silently experience during pregnancy and motherhood. This show is not just for mothers, but for everyone who loves, respects, and values the women who shape our lives.”
Speaking about the concept behind the show, creator Anirban Bhattacharjee quips “The Ward was born from the idea of creating a safe and honest space where women could express the realities of pregnancy and motherhood without filters. We wanted to move beyond stereotypes and showcase the emotional, psychological, and deeply human experiences that often remain unspoken. The show is emotional, raw, and deeply relatable, and we hope it starts meaningful conversations in every home.”

*Rajeev Khandelwal Gets Inspired by the Soulful Journey of a Commissioner and His Wife*
*15th May 2026 Mumbai* : The upcoming episode of *Tum Ho Naa* , hosted by the charismatic *Rajeev Khandelwal* , is set to move audiences with an extraordinary story of resilience, love, and unwavering ambition. The episode features contestant Poojali and her husband Dilip, whose journey from humble beginnings to the prestigious ranks of the Civil Services serves as a powerful testament to the strength of a supportive partnership.
Poojali took a trip down memory lane, recalling their early college days when Dilip would travel to her college specifically to participate in debates, driven by the hope of winning the prize money. She fondly remembered their first date at a simple tea stall despite her excitement and being dressed for the occasion, the date ended with her paying for the tea. Dilip shared the reality of those times, revealing that he worked grueling 12-hour shifts at a call center followed by five hours of college, leaving him with very little money. He recalled having only INR 110 to his name during one of their dates, but Poojali remained his constant support, happy with just a cup of tea and a shared dream.
Poojali highlighted Dilip’s singular focus, noting that while other students were preoccupied with their social lives, Dilip was laser-focused on his goal to crack the UPSC. Through the years of struggle and financial hardship during which Poojali stepped in to support him and his hard work eventually paid off when he cleared the exams to become a Commissioner.
Deeply moved by their bond and Dileep’s grit, host Rajeev Khandelwal stated _“Main yeh kehna chahunga ki agar inspiration ka koi chehra hota hain toh woh yeh dilip ji hain. Matlab barah ghante call centre mein kaam karna aur fir preparation karna aur thaan lena ki mujhe UPSC clear karna hain, koi excuses nahi hain , koi bahane nahi hain aur koi shortcut bhi nahi hain inhone apne pureh apne hardwork ke sath clear kiya.”_ The episode beautifully serves a reminder that behind every great success is a story of sacrifice and a partner who stood firm through the leanest times.
