The post garnered attention from various quarters, including Karan Johar’s ‘Dharma Productions’, who lauded the moment as “iconic”. Alia herself expressed her gratitude by sharing The Academy’s post on her Instagram Story, adorned with red heart and sun emojis.
What makes this recognition even more special is that ‘Ghar More Pardesiya’ marks the second song featuring the melodious voice of Shreya Ghoshal to be acknowledged by The Academy. Earlier, her rendition of ‘Deewani Mastani’ from ‘Bajirao Mastani’ received similar accolades, showcasing the universal appeal of her vocals.
Fans of Shreya Ghoshal rejoiced at this acknowledgment, emphasizing the transcendent quality of her voice that knows no borders. Some even speculated that The Academy might be a fan of her unparalleled talent.
‘Kalank’, directed by Abhishek Varman, boasted an ensemble cast including Madhuri Dixit Nene, Sanjay Dutt, Aditya Roy Kapur, Varun Dhawan, and Sonakshi Sinha. Despite the star-studded lineup and grand promotions, the film failed to leave a lasting impact on audiences.
Nevertheless, the resurgence of ‘Ghar More Pardesiya’ on The Academy’s platform serves as a reminder of the enduring power of music and cinema to captivate hearts across the globe, transcending the boundaries of language and culture.
