Bhangra Paa Le: Ronnie Screwvala backs dance film with Sunny Kaushal and Rukshar Dhillon as leads

Ronnie Screwvala is riding high on the glory of his latest film Uri: The Surgical Strike, which is the first blockbuster of the year 2019. He has always been up for content-driven films and talented directors. Bhangra Paa Le is yet another film from RSVP in 2019 that will be directed by debutante Sneha Taurani.

Ronnie had produced a very successful franchise of ABCD with UTV and is now looking forward to a film on similar lines, but under RSVP Bhangra Paa Le is a fusion of the traditional forms of Bhangra from Punjab and its association with western dance forms from all over the world. The screenplay is written by Dheeraj Rattan. The narration of the film revolves around the past and present. It has all the ingredients of a hit film like romance, dance and music transiting through the ages.

“Bhangra is something that is very close to me. Being a Punjabi, I have grown up on Punjabi music and Bhangra and till date, it is my go-to jam. I feel very passionately about Bhangra as a dance form, so being a part of a film based on Bhangra is very surreal. And Sneha is such a warm and wonderful human being. Working with RSVP and Ronnie sir is a great opportunity. I feel very fortunate. I am really looking forward to this journey! It is going to be a lot of fun! Burrraaaahhhhhh!!!!!" said Sunny Kaushal.

“What I love about the script is the world it takes you into where music and dance define its characters and their goals. I am hoping to showcase Bhangra in its authentic form to give the audience an idea of its history as well as its modern-day adaptation through the inter-college competitions. I have always been incredibly passionate about music and through the songs of the film you will see the real and fascinating evolution of Bhangra as a dance form. A young fresh pairing, energetic music and a collaborator like RSVP- I couldn’t have asked for a better debut”, says Sneha Taurani the director.

“With Bhangra Paa Le we hope to create a successful dance franchise. At RSVP we are looking to tell stories that we love to tell or must be told through the voice of talented youngsters like Sneha. Sunny is one of the most promising youngsters out there and I can't wait to see the magic they weave” said Ronnie Screwvala.

“From Bhangra and the word Balle-Balle being the first things I ever learned about dance as a child, to now getting all prepped up in full swing for a bhangra dance film feels like a dream come true. Extremely grateful to RSVP and Sneha for giving me this opportunity, their level of dedication and enthusiasm towards the movie is incredible and I can’t wait to begin this exciting journey,” said Rukshar.
