Mumbai: The sets of Indian Idol turned even more special when Ankit Sakhiya, director of Laalo – Krishna Sada Sahaayate, revealed an emotional and inspiring connection between the film and the iconic singing reality show.
During the integration, Ankit shared that former Indian Idol contestant Ashish Kulkarni has lent his voice to a song in Laalo. The revelation instantly created a wave of pride and excitement on set — a true full-circle moment celebrating talent nurtured on the very same stage.
Judge Vishal Dadlani couldn’t hide his happiness. Reacting to the news, he expressed how proud it makes the Indian Idol family when their singers continue to shine beyond the show.
“We are so proud that our singer is going out there and making us proud on such platforms. This is what Indian Idol is all about — giving talent wings.”
The moment beautifully underscored how Indian Idol is not just a show, but a launchpad — where voices find recognition, and journeys extend far beyond the stage lights.
For Laalo, this connection adds an emotional musical layer — blending cinematic storytelling with a voice that audiences have already loved and rooted for.
