Most of us love a very good love story with drama, tension, and romance! What’s higher than a Karan Johar movie? Nothing beats Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham! But Shonda Rhimes sure knows bring a period romance piece alive on screen and mix the 2000s nostalgia with a period drama. We’re talking about Bridgerton, after all!
The books and the Netflix series have captivated audiences worldwide, and most of all, the variety has caught people’s eye. The screen adaptation of Julia Quinn’s story already has three seasons with incredible romantic storylines and characters. What makes the screenplay more interesting is the songs from the twenty first century which are recreated within the orchestral style to suit the Regency era. While many English songs are on the list, did that Shah Rukh and Kajol’s iconic K3G song was also utilized in a pivotal scene?
When Bridgerton Went Bollywood For Season 2
Season 1 was all concerning the fiery romance of Daphne and Simon, and the following was all about Anthony and Kate. Now, within the books, Kate was not from India, but within the screenplay, the writers decided to indicate inclusivity by making Kate of Indian origin.
What do Indians know do the very best? Rejoice, after all! So when Kate’s sister Edwina goes to marry Anthony (huge plot twists occur for many who haven’t seen it yet), there’s a compulsory ‘haldi’ ceremony shown within the episode.
In Bridgerton Season 2, the Sharma sisters and their mother are shown to rejoice this ceremony with turmeric, wearing brilliant yellow gowns in a room adorned with marigolds for prosperity. While the ceremony continues, viewers can hear the Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham title song playing in its orchestra version. The quilt is by Kris Bowers and is played at 2:48 in episode 6.
Charithra Chandan, who plays Edwina’s role, was so surprised by the song that she texted the creator of the series, Chris Van Dusen. She was emotional due to collision of each worlds. Charithra revealed her story to the Telegraph, saying that being an immigrant has downsides and upsides. Considered one of the downsides is that you just don’t know where you belong. After hearing the song in a Regency setting, she said, “Ah, I get it now.” She is able to being and doing each.
