Birthday of bollywood film producer/director Rakesh Sabharwal celebrated at Trumpet Sky lounge on 9th July. Various celebrities including Pawan Kaushik, Atul Mohan, Yash wadali, Samrat Sarkar, Chitrlekha, Ruby mocha, Tushar Dhailiwal, Archana tomar, Maya singh, Priyanka, Kajal Shah, Arti Nagaal, Dev Sharma, Lalit Sharma from delhi, Mukesh Sharma, Rajesh Vasani, Rahul dewda designer from label Chota Luxury, Vinod Mukhi director, Vijay Verma Music director etc. were present there to gave wishes to Rakesh Sabharwal for his birthday.

A special fabulous dance performance was done by Shirin which kept all the people spellbound . Many people came from all over India who celebrated birthday of Rakesh Sabharwal which you can also see in the Pictures & Videos.

Famous Astrologer Pawan Kaushik specially came from Delhi to give his blessings. It was a very colorful night where Music Album- MERE SAPNO MEI produced by Rakesh Sabharwal was released on ZEE Music. Along with Pawan Kaushik,  Atul Mohan & Rajesh Vasani was also there at the Album launch.

A cake was cut specially for the Song Release which is sung,composed & act by Danish Alfaaz who was launched in Bollywood  by Rakesh Sabahrwal in Film “The Journey of Karma” as a Music Director.  Friends of Danish Alfaaz various Tik-Tok Stars Faizal,  lucky dancer, etc. came there to promote & wish the Singer Danish ALfaaz for his Music Album.

After recently designing mother and daughter looks for Madhuri Dixit for an advertisement, National Award-winning makeup, hair and prosthetic designer Preetisheel Singh, has now designed dual looks for Southern superstar Vijay for his upcoming Tamil flick Bigil.

Preetisheel, who also received rave reviews recently for curating the looks for Ranveer Singh as Alauddin Khilji in Padmaavat, Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor in 102 Not Out, Ayushman Khurrana in Andhadhun and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in and as Thackeray, is excited as the first look poster of Bigil is out.

She has good reason to be. Because Vijay’s look in the film is unlike anything he has done before. The Southern hearththrob will be seen in two different avatars of father and son in the film directed by Atlee and having music by AR Rahman.

“Hours of study have gone into building the character designs,” says Preetisheel. “We didn’t want to lose the authenticity of the character or miss out on the aura projected by the legendary Vijay. Keeping this in mind, for the father’s role, we added wrinkles around his laugh lines and on his forehead, using special-effects make-up. Along with that, we gave him salt ‘n pepper hair which gave a classier touch.”

For his son’s character, Vijay was given “the trendy look that footballers of the current generation carry,” informs Preetisheel. She mentions that the superstar is a pleasure to work with. “Very humble and down-to-earth, Vijay not only showers trust, but patiently allows the team to work without interference. Both the actor and director put full faith in our vision and art, and that has immensely helped,” she concludes.

Apart from Bigil, Preetisheel is looking forward to many films, including the Akshay Kumar-starrer Housefull 4, Kangana Ranaut-starrer Panga, Nawazuddin Siddiqui–Radhika Apte-starrer Raat Akeli Hai and Nitesh Tiwari’s Chhichhore; for which she has designed multiple young and old-age looks for an ensemble lead cast.
