Weekly Music Video

This week's music video is Wallah Habibi from the recent Bollywood film Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. The title translates as "Big Master Little Master" in English. 

It's an action and sci-fi thriller about ex-soldiers Captain Firoz/Freddy (played by star actor Akshay Kumar) and Captain Rakesh/Rocky (played by Tiger Shroff, son of veteran actor Jackie Shroff and film producer and former model and actress Ayesha Dutt), aka Bade Miyan and Chote Miyan, who are called back to duty. 

They were previously court martialled and have been labelled "psychos", but they must now team up to recover a stolen weapon and defeat a mysterious masked enemy, who wants to destroy India. The idea is that when dealing with a psychopath, even bigger psychos are needed! Freddy and Rocky are aided in their mission by Captain Misha (Manushi Chhillar) and IT specialist Pam (Alaya F).

Interesting info: Both Akshay and Tiger have studied martial arts.

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan was released in April, to coincide with Eid. It didn't do very well at the cinema and has bad reviews, but may do better on Netflix, where it will be available for streaming from tomorrow (6th June). I haven't seen it so can't offer my opinion,  but the music is good anyway! :)

Wallah Habibi was the 3rd single from the official soundtrack and came out in March. The song is mostly Hindi language but the title is Arabic and there is also an Arabic version. "Habibi" is a term of endearment that means "beloved", "darling", "dear", etc. I didn't know the word  "wallah" but I see that it means "I swear" or "by God" in English. So Wallah Habibi translates as "I swear, my dear" or "I promise, my love".

The video features the 4 main stars of the movie and also belly dancers, although it doesn't look like they're doing strictly belly dance moves. The playback singers are Vishal Dadlani (one half of the duo Vishal-Shekhar), Vishal Mishra and Dipakshi Kalita

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

Weekly Music Video

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...

K-pop Comebacks- BTS

Sorry the 2nd post is later again this week, I didn't manage to get it finished yesterday. :) Last month I started a mini series called K-pop Comebacks, featuring the comebacks of K-pop groups during 2026. The first one was about BLACKPINK and you can see it here:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2026/03/k-pop-comebacks-blackpink.html Today I'm focusing on BTS (one of the most popular Korean boybands ). They debuted in 2013 and are a 7-member group, made up of leader RM, formerly known as Rap Monster (real name Kim Nam Joon), SUGA (Min Yoon Gi), Jin (full name Kim Seok Jin), j-hope (Jung Ho-seok), Jimin (Park Ji Min), V (Kim Tae Hyung) and Jungkook (Jeon Jung Kook). * Since then, the boys have been very successful, not only in South Korea but internationally. They are probably one of the most well-known K-pop bands worldwide.  In June 2022, the group took a break while the members served their  mandatory military service in Korea and have also been concentrat...
