&TV's ‘Atal’ is all set to premiere its first episode on December 5 at 8:00 pm. Audiences eagerly anticipate the revelation of the untold childhood stories of the late Prime Minister, Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The first episode will present the birth of Atal, the cultural values instilled into him by his family, his discomfort with the unfair treatment under British rule, and his stand against injustice. 

Talking about the upcoming track, Ashutosh Kulkarni, portraying Krishna Vajpayee’s role, shares, “The episode delves into Atal's birth during Christmas festivities, highlighting his family's obstacles due to a British officer and Tomar (Mahmood Hashmi) hindering their journey to the hospital. As Atal (Vyom Thakkar) grows up, his family instills the significance of cultural values and heritage in him. His defiance against the erasure of cultural symbols at school and his discomfort with the unfair treatment of those under British rule showcase his growing awareness and dissent. Witnessing the brutal oppression of villagers by British officers further strengthens his resolve to stand against injustice. Atal's quest for understanding leads him to Bhagat Singh's story, which deeply impacts him. The impending execution of Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru disturbs Atal profoundly. Despite opposition, he aims to pay homage to these martyrs. The climax builds as Atal's family confronts Tomar's intimidation tactics, displaying their unwavering support for freedom fighters despite the risks posed by the British authorities. This confrontation highlights their resilience and determination to stand against oppression and honor the sacrifices made for India's freedom.”

 

Tune in to watch the premiere episode of ‘Atal’ on Dec 5th at 8:00 pm, airing every Monday to Friday only on &TV!

Badshah Shuts Down London And Leeds, Performs For Over 15,000 Fans At Debut UK Tour

Badshah Shuts Down London And Leeds, Performs For Over 15,000 Fans At Debut UK Tour

 
United Kingdom, 30th November 2023- Music aficionados in the United Kingdom were treated to an unforgettable and enthralling night of unadulterated revelry as one of the biggest household names in the South-Asian music and entertainment industry, Badshah delivered pioneering headlining performances in the region and shut down London and Leeds over the weekend.

Notably, the sold-out historic performances marked Badshah’s debut set at the iconic arenas and arrived amidst unprecedented anticipation for his forthcoming album ‘Badworld’.
 
Most loved for his chart-topping radio hits, arresting stage presence, and zealous fan interactions, the fourth most followed Indian musician on Spotify infused an invigorating surge of energy and enthusiasm to the illustrious Wembley's Ovo Arena and First Direct Arena, as he presented a unique blend of Punjabi hip hop, Bollywood and pop music complemented with some acoustic Shayari.

Billed as a truly immersive and experiential event; crowd pleasers like confetti, streamers, CO2 jets, holographic effects, DMX fire machines, and pyrotechnics were deployed as the Billboard-charting South Asian music juggernaut made a larger-than-life splash on the stage along with his famous mammoth sized teddy bear and exotic dancers at his highly publicized tour. The 38-year-old global entertainer took the arenas by storm, sporting ultra-chic luxe gear and delighted his legions of fans across the United Kingdom over a smashing three-hour 27-track setlist.
 
The hip-hop trailblazer, who continues to drop top-selling records year after year, performed some of his most influential compositions including the recently released ‘Gone Girl’ and ‘Jawaab’ as well as his memorable hits from his older catalog such as ‘Jugnu’, ‘Paani Paani’, ‘Garmi’, ‘DJ Waale Babu’, ‘Lets Nacho’, ‘Kala Chashma’, ‘Kar Gayi Chull’, ‘Genda Phool’, ‘Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai’ and ‘Paagal’.

The maiden two-city solo tour that saw the music icon perform in the United Kingdom after a six-year hiatus was received with thunderous encores on multiple occasions, with a 15,000-plus cumulative audience chanting his name in unison. Interestingly, while both stadiums had a seated arrangement, midway through the show, the majority of the attendees were atop their seats screaming their lungs out and dancing like nobody was watching. A heartwarming moment that took the spirited audience by surprise was when Badshah emerged from the center of the stadium like a phoenix to give an up close and personal experience to his fans stationed at the farther end of the arena. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly when all the concertgoers showed their appreciation for their favorite artist by holding up their cell phone lights in synchronization as the arena lights dimmed, creating a spine-tingling visual experience. In his archetypal modest style, Badshah was quick to express gratitude on multiple counts, as he referenced how legends like Michael Jackson, Black Pink, and Gurudas Maan had performed at the venue previously as well as bowed down to the audience with folded hands as the performance came to a conclusion.

Badshah who sported custom-made Sidhu Moose Wala earplugs throughout the show as a mark of respect says, “A big shoutout to all my fans in the U.K. for coming out over the weekend. It has been an incredibly delightful experience for me and I thoroughly enjoyed sharing the music and making memories with each one of you. It takes a lot to pull off shows like these and I thank all the stakeholders involved in making this tour a success I look forward to performing again real soon!”
 
Saurabh Abbi, CEO, of TM Ventures who manages Badshah adds, “We are grateful that Badshah enjoys a great fan base not only in India but also across various countries around the world. The kind of response we received in the U.K. has surpassed our expectations and we are thankful for all the heartwarming messages coming in from the live event and music community. We look forward to taking the Badshah Live experience to different corners of the world next year.”

Sunny Sethi, Executive Creative Producer, Imagine X Global states, “The North has bred musical legends, from the Beatles in Liverpool to Ed Sheeran’s Yorkshire roots. It’s a region steeped in music history, and we’re excited to add Badshah’s name to this illustrious list. Our production isn’t just a concert; it’s an immersive experience that allows Badshah to connect and resonate with his fans. We’re also harnessing the power of the arts to raise awareness of mental health and wellbeing, creating a space where fans can come together for a night of escapism and community."

Govind Shahi, Executive Vice President, IndiaCast UK Ltd (Colors TV UK) says, “The 'Badshah Live In UK' concerts orchestrated a symphony of applause, resonating not just with our enthusiastic audience but also harmonizing seamlessly with our esteemed partners! This surge of success, driven by pulsating foot-stomping beats and captivating dancing grooves, underscores our steadfast commitment to delivering exhilarating, captivating, and avant-garde experiences for our customers and partners in the UK. As a network deeply connected with our audience, we are dedicated to crafting unforgettable moments, and the rhythmic energy of a lively LIVE audience inspires us to curate an even more magnificent and melodious lineup for the upcoming year. In a nightclub-esque atmosphere, Colors was thrilled to be part of this live audience, witnessing why the "bad boy" is truly the Badshah of today's music scene.”

As the first Indian hip hop artist-entrepreneur to have a curated South Asian list on Capital XTRA and Formula 1 playlist to his credit, Badshah showcased his exceptional vocal prowess and his aptitude to bridge culture and community with this much-talked-about tour, which only further cements his legacy among a truly global fanbase.

Set against the backdrop of British colonial rule in India, the show will delve into the intricacies of Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s childhood, shedding light on the incidents, beliefs, and challenges that molded him into the leader that he was. Milind Dastane, revealing details about his character says, “Shyam Lal Vajpayee immersed himself in reciting Bhagwat Katha and earned a livelihood by delving into astrology and scriptures. Shyam Lal possessed a remarkable enthusiasm for life. He exuded liveliness, discovering happiness amid sorrow, and finding amusement even in moments of anger. His cheerful demeanor profoundly impacted Atal. Despite being dedicated to work, Shyam Lal emphasized the significance of meditation and yoga.

The storyline unfolds the inspiring story of Atal Bihari Vajpayee, a boy from humble beginnings who became one of India's most prominent leaders. When I was offered this role, I thought over it carefully before accepting it because it is a huge responsibility. There was nervousness as I was not very well aware of Atal Ji's grandfather. However, I thrive on challenges and saw it as an opportunity to play such a pivotal role in a Hindi television show. The extensive workshop helped me prepare thoroughly for the role and helped me understand my character in much more depth. The makers did an excellent job of prepping me and modifying my appearance to look like Atal Ji's real grandfather as much as possible. I am looking forward to the viewer's response to it.”
