Amul honors Farhan’s performance as Ravi Shankar in The Beatles with a humorous comedic

An unexpected supporter of actor-director Farhan Akhtar’s Hollywood debut as Pandit Ravi Shankar is Amul India. The actor’s casting in Sam Mendes’ ambitious Beatles movie was celebrated by the dairy giant with a humorous commercial titled Sitar Turn for Farhan.

In keeping with Amul’s distinctive style, the illustrated creative shows Farhan sitting with a sitar next to a picture of Ravi Shankar, fusing humor with homage. Amul’s tribute has given the worldwide milestone a decidedly Indian mark of approval as word of his casting spreads throughout industry.In Sam Mendes’s film The Beatles — A Four-Film Cinematic Event, Farhan plays sitar master and Bharat Ratna recipient Ravi Shankar.

Amul captioned its creative: “Actor-director all set to make Hollywood debut in Beatles biopic as Ravi Shankar!” The wordplay — “Sitar Turn for Farhan”– plays on both the instrument and the shift in his career trajectory. Farhan reshared the tribute, thanking the brand for the nod.

The position is a significant international step for Farhan. The portrayal of Ravi Shankar, a musician who popularized Indian classical music in the West, is significant on a global scale. The film seeks to recreate the cross-cultural musical discussion that was shaped in the 1960s by Shankar’s interactions with Harrison.

Naturally, there are enormous expectations when Mendes is in charge. The director, who is renowned for his expansive cinematic narratives, will chronicle the Beatles’ biography in four interconnected films. A more thorough examination of the band’s musical and spiritual development is shown by the inclusion of Shankar’s impact. This is more than simply another part for Farhan. Resonant, ambitious, and perfectly suited to a global stage, it’s a sitar thread that is tugged across continents.
