We need a bit of hope at this time, says Sivamani

Sivamani has composed the music for an upcoming musical film titled Atkan Chatkan. “As kids, we have always been a little lost and looking for hope for our bizarre dreams that only make sense to us at that age, just like Guddu (the protagonist of the film). Atkan Chatkan is an amalgamation of the burning desire of four kids to fulfill their dreams. It is a musical that will take you on a rhythmic journey of hope and dreams. We all need a bit of hope at this time,” he said.

 The story of the film revolves around a little boy Guddu and how he forms a band with three other street children — Maadhav, Chuttan and Mithi — who work near his tea stall.

 Playing Guddu is gifted child pianist Lydian Nadhaswaram. Amitabh Bachchan, Sonu Nigam, Hariharan, Runa Sivamani, and Uthara Unnikrishnan have sung the songs. Presented by AR Rahman and directed by Shiv Hare, Atkan Chatkan releases on September 5 on Zee5.
