From Seoul with love: Korean man speaks in fluent Bhojpuri to Korean people, internet is impressed!

Lee, is seen leading a cheerful classroom session that even includes children, guiding them through basic Bhojpuri greetings with energy and warmth. This video was shared by the Korean content creator @40kahani on Instagram and it begins with Lee introducing the lesson: "How to have four basic conversations in India. When we meet someone for the first time, we say hello. In India, we say, 'ka ho?' Very nice, very nice." His enthusiasm sets the tone as the group excitedly repeats each phrase, doing their best to follow his pronunciation. As the lesson continues, Lee adds, "When we meet that same person again, then we say, how have you been? In India, we say, 'ka hal ba?' Amazing. Okay, now we have to reply. We say, 'theek ba?' Fantastic. So sad, but we have to say goodbye to our friend. How do we say goodbye in India? 'Khush Raho.'" The group repeats each line in sync, turning the classroom into a joyful celebration of language and connection. Shared with the caption, "Teaching Bhojpuri to Korean kids #korean #kdrama #bhojpuri #bihar.

Natania Lalwani: Breaking Borders, One Global Hit At A Time
Last Updated: Blending Punjabi soul with global pop, Natania Lalwani is reshaping the soundscape of mainstream music—one cross-cultural hit at a time. From Mumbai to Los Angeles, from Punjabi beats to Hollywood soundtracks, Natania Lalwani is crafting a musical universe where culture meets pop magic with Rihanna, Disney, and even the Smurfs along for the ride. For Natania Lalwani, music isn't just about melodies, it's about emotion, connection, and fearlessly crossing borders. With songwriting credits for global heavyweights like Nick Jonas, Rihanna, Cardi B, and now a coveted spot on the Freaky Friday reboot soundtrack, the Indian-born, LA-based pop singer-songwriter is making waves that resonate far beyond genre or geography. 'I've always believed that music breaks all borders," Natania shares. 'No matter the market or style, at the heart of it, we're all trying to create something that moves people." Whether she's writing a vulnerable breakup ballad or crafting a joy-filled tune for The Smurfs, Natania's north star is authenticity and it shows. Repping Brown on the Global Stage With a powerful voice both on and off the mic, Natania is part of a larger movement redefining South Asian representation in global entertainment. 'There's a growing respect and curiosity for South Asian voices," she says, beaming with pride. 'We're not just showing up, we're leading." She cites names like Diljit Dosanjh and Karan Aujla as evidence of this shift, and her own career is a prime example: from viral desi-pop fusions to writing platinum-certified tracks for artists like Armaan Malik, Natania's discography reflects a bold, borderless sound. A Disney Dream, Reimagined Her latest milestone? Freaky Friday, Disney's reboot of the iconic film. 'It was a full circle moment," she says. 'My A&R sent in the song, and Disney loved it." A creative call with director Nisha Ganatra sealed the deal. The track itself, born from a serendipitous studio session with Jason Evigan, carries layers of heartbreak and hope. 'I was going through a breakup and just poured it all into the song," she laughs. 'It somehow matched the film's energy perfectly. It was fate!" Smurfs, Soundtracks, and Surreal Moments Then came The Smurfs. Her track 'Higher Love" brings a vibrant Punjabi-pop flavor to the animated film's international soundtrack. 'I grew up in Mumbai watching movies like this—it felt so far away," she reflects. 'To now be part of something global and still so personal, that's everything." The blue carpet premiere only added to the magic. 'Hearing my song, meeting Rihanna, it was electric!" Bridging Cultures, Finding Her Frequency Throughout it all, Natania's mission has remained clear: fuse her Indian heritage with the universal language of pop. 'It's like finding my own unique frequency," she says. 'It's heart-expanding. It makes me feel fully, authentically me." And fans have noticed, her work doesn't just blend cultures, it celebrates them. The Rahman Dream and What's Next When asked about a dream collaboration, her answer is instant: A.R. Rahman. 'It would be something timeless but fresh. Something that lives forever," she says. And while she stays tight-lipped about specifics, she teases more music on the horizon, with the Freaky Friday soundtrack dropping August 8. As for the buzz around her recent studio time with Rahman? She calls it 'a pinch-me moment." No surprise, most of her journey seems like one, the kind artists dream of but few actually live. But for Natania Lalwani, this is just the beginning. Caption: From The Smurfs to Freaky Friday, Natania Lalwani is India's rising pop force taking Hollywood by storm.

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 17: Mohit Suri's film earnings surge on Sunday, mints THIS amount
Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 17: After 16 days of release, Mohit Suri's latest romantic film, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is ruling the box office. Saiyaara earned nearly ₹ 291 crore in the last 16 days. According to trade industry tracker Sacnilk, Saiyaara earned an estimated ₹ 5.11 crore India net on Sunday, August 3, at the box office, marking a significant surge since Friday. Saiyaara had an overall 31.72% Hindi Occupancy on Sunday. The Ahaan Pandey-starrer film opened to ₹ 21.5 crore. On Friday, Day 15, the film earned ₹ 4.5 crore. The total collection of Saiyaara now stands at ₹ 296.86 crore (India Net), according to Sacnilk data. Saiyaara collected over ₹ 460 crore worldwide in 16 days, including ₹ 291.75 crore India net and ₹ 110 crore from overseas. Speaking on the Saiyaara box office collection, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh wrote on X, 'continues its dream run… The film has crossed the ₹ 💯 cr mark in *Week 2* [Friday to Wednesday], reflecting its strong hold at the box-office. It is now eyeing a ₹ 285 cr [+/-] total by the end of Week 2.' In another post on X, Adarsh noted, '#Saiyaara continues its strong run on Tuesday, hitting double digits yet again… The discounted ticket pricing initiative has certainly helped drive footfalls.' However, the film's collection has been impacted by Ashwin Kumar's mythological animated film, Mahavatar Narsimha that released on July 25, 2025. Saiyaara is a romantic musical drama film directed by Mohit Suri. Produced by Yash Raj Films, it stars debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda along with Geeta Agarwal, Rajesh Kumar, and Varun Badola. The film is loosely inspired by the 2004 Korean movie A Moment To Remember. IMDb describes plot of Saiyaara as, 'Vaani (Aneet Padda) and Krish (Ahaan Pandey) will have to navigate life, their problems, their insecurities to hopefully realise that only love can be the answer to everything.'
