Musical Antics at the ‘Rakasa’ Song Launch: “If the Film Becomes a Hit, Niharika Will Gift a Range Rover”

Entertainment : Yesterday marked the song launch event of Raakaasa, starring Sangeeth Sobhan and Nayan Sarika. The event had a playful twist due to producer Niharika dealing with throat pain, which led to a humorous scenario on stage.

Sangeeth took the spotlight for a moment, announcing Niharika’s throat issue and offering to read her speech on her behalf. As he read aloud, he jokingly mentioned that Niharika promised to gift him a Range Rover if the film became a hit.

Not missing a beat, Niharika jumped in and said, “See! My throat is blocked like this. But instead of leaving it to Sangeeth, it’s better to speak with this throat itself, as my post-release budget would also shoot up. I will try to manage with this ‘Chinmayi-kind-of throat’,” and continued speaking a few more lines.

The reference, of course, was to popular singer and dubbing artist Chinmayi, sparking lighthearted chatter among the audience. Some joked whether Chinmayi might be offended by the playful comparison.

The moment has sparked a humorous trend, similar to how men jokingly claim their voice sounds like Udit Narayan when suffering from a cold. Perhaps for women, the “Chinmayi-style throat” might now become the new playful benchmark, thanks to Niharika’s witty remark.
