PREETY BHALLA INVITES THE DIVINE SOULS TO A TRANSCENDENTAL JOURNEY WITH HER NEW MASTERPIECE – FAKIRI

 PREETY BHALLA INVITES THE DIVINE SOULS TO A TRANSCENDENTAL JOURNEY WITH HER NEW MASTERPIECE – FAKIRI

Watch the song here- https://youtu.be/Q_3iWYmZM7k?si=Q1zosiDfY7puSE68 

An ode to the soul’s eternal quest for oneness, cloaked in the mystique of Sufi fervour

The ethereal voice that has long echoed through the corridors of spiritual devotion and musical excellence, Preety Bhalla, returns with her latest offering, “Fakiri,” a soul-stirring symphony for seekers of light, truth, and transcendence.

This Sufi song, composed and sung by Preety Bhalla, brings the timeless poetry of Sant Kabir Das to life with a fresh twist. It blends deep spiritual verses with trippy vibes, groovy rhythms, and new-age electronic sounds. This unique mix appeals to both modern youth and lovers of timeless classics who cherish depth, devotion, and rich musical heritage  bridging generations through rhythm and wisdom.


With celestial melodies entwined with Preety Bhalla’s mesmerising vocals, Fakiri transports listeners into a realm where the self dissolves, and only love remains. The lyrics, steeped in mysticism and longing, echo the teachings of the great Sufi saints – where the annihilation of ego births the true awakening. It is a ballad of divine madness, of losing oneself only to be found by the Beloved.

Speaking of her latest creation, Preety Bhalla shares, “Fakiri is a feeling, a way of life. It is my humble tribute to the path of divine love, of living beyond material illusions, and embracing the ecstatic truth of the soul’s journey” 

From the first note to the last breath of the track, Fakiri unfurls like a silken prayer – powerful, gentle, and profound. This musical sanctum resonates with the fragrance of Ishq-e-Haqiqi (divine love)

Sherlyn Chopra Launches NGO ‘Prakasham’ to Uplift the Underprivileged

A Vision of Compassion and Change

Renowned actress, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Sherlyn Chopra has embarked on a noble mission with the launch of her NGO ‘Prakasham’, dedicated to the welfare and upliftment of the underprivileged. Prakasham aims to provide support, resources, and opportunities for a brighter future.

As a child, Sherlyn Chopra harboured dreams of becoming a doctor—not merely because her late father was a medical professional, but because she was captivated by the intricacies of science. An exceptional student, she excelled in both academics and extracurricular activities, earning admiration from her teachers and peers alike. However, fate had other plans. When she won the title of Miss Andhra at just seventeen, Sherlyn found herself at a crossroads. The dazzling world of glamour beckoned, and she chose to carve out a path in show business.

Though she pivoted from her initial aspiration of medicine, the qualities that once drew her to the field—her empathy, compassion, and innate desire to help others—remained steadfast. Recognising the need for an avenue to channel these emotions, she founded Prakasham, a humanitarian initiative committed to empowering the less fortunate. Through Prakasham, Sherlyn seeks to uplift those deprived of necessities, education, and healthcare, offering them a chance at a dignified life. The NGO’s official website, https://prakasham.foundation, serves as a portal for those who wish to contribute or benefit from its initiatives.

On the professional front, Sherlyn is set to star in an upcoming web series produced by Ekta Kapoor, further expanding her dynamic presence in the entertainment industry. Alongside her work in feature films, short films, and digital content, she is also exploring the realm of music singles. A firm believer in the power of music as a form of expression, Sherlyn sees it as an extension of her identity—an avenue where she can amplify her thoughts, creativity, and advocacy for feminism.

”Prakasham is a movement of hope, dignity, and empowerment. I have always believed that true success is measured by the impact we create in the lives of others. Through Prakasham, I strive to be a source of light for those who need it the most, ensuring that no dream remains unfulfilled due to lack of opportunity” adds Sherlyn Chopra

Tom Cruise returns to CinemaCon with ‘Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning’

Tom Cruise returns to CinemaCon with ‘Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning’

Making a grand return to CinemaCon, Tom Cruise lit up the stage at Caesars Palace’s Colosseum which marked his first appearance post-pandemic. This time, he brought with him an exclusive first look at Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, the epic conclusion to the franchise that has redefined action cinema for nearly three decades, marking a thrilling moment for fans and industry insiders alike.

Directed by Christopher McQuarrie, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning marks the epic conclusion to the franchise that began nearly three decades ago. The film picks up after Dead Reckoning, where Ethan Hunt faces a rogue AI known as The Entity.

On stage, Cruise praised McQuarrie, recalling how he had secretly brought him in to refine Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol without informing the team. “He’s the hero of that film and put Skydance on the map,” Cruise remarked. He continued, “Because of Christopher McQuarrie, we delivered Top Gun: Maverick and two Mission: Impossible films during pandemic shutdowns and strikes. You’re a modern-day Thalberg and an asset to every studio you serve.” Cruise then honoured McQuarrie with CinemaCon’s Director of the Year Award.

Reflecting on his journey, McQuarrie credited Cruise for believing in him when no one else would. “Tom, I’m here because of your vision and trust,” he said, adding that Cruise pushed him beyond his own limits. As he introduced the trailer, Cruise expressed gratitude to former Mission: Impossible producer Paula Wagner, ex-Paramount chief Sherry Lansing, and all directors who contributed to the franchise, including Brian De Palma, Brad Bird, J.J. Abrams, and John Woo.

The trailer of Mission Impossible 8 itself promises high-octane action, with Henry Czerny’s Kittridge ominously stating, “If we want to bring the world back to the brink, we have to deal with him.” It features Cruise performing jaw-dropping stunts, including crawling on a flying biplane and jumping off an aircraft carrier. Nuclear missiles are also in play, raising the stakes like never before.

With a powerhouse ensemble including Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, and Angela Bassett, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning promises an electrifying tribute to Ethan Hunt’s legacy.

Mark your calendars for May 23, 2025 in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telegu in 4Dx and IMAX and to step into a world where lives, choices and missions collide.
