With Independence Day just around the corner, the team behind Heer Express has given audiences a gift — a brand-new patriotic song that’s already making waves. Titled I Love My India, the track combines heartfelt emotion with a fresh, vibrant sound, proving that patriotism doesn’t always have to come in the form of a solemn ballad.
Building the Buzz for Heer Express
The buzz around Heer Express has been growing steadily ever since its trailer dropped. The film promises to be a complete family entertainer, blending romance, drama, and comedy with relatable characters. The music has been one of its biggest talking points so far — from the soulful Ve Ranjhana to the lively wedding anthem Dore Dore, each release has added a new layer of excitement for moviegoers.
Now, with I Love My India entering the mix, the film has tapped into the festive mood of August and given audiences something they can hum, dance to, and feel proud of.
A Song With a Twist
Unlike traditional patriotic songs, I Love My India offers a modern, upbeat take on national pride. Shot in the picturesque streets of London, the song ties into the film’s storyline, where Heer moves abroad but carries her deep love for India with her. This fresh visual setting gives the song a global flavor without losing its desi soul.
The vocals are a treat — Javed Ali brings his signature warmth and depth, while Nikhita Gandhi injects the track with a burst of energy. Lyricist Shloke Lal keeps things simple yet impactful, and composer Tanishk Bagchi delivers a melody that sticks in your head long after the song ends.
Speaking about the experience, Javed Ali said, “It’s not your usual patriotic track. It’s light and fun, but there’s still a strong connection to our roots. I could instantly picture people around the world singing it.”
Nikhita Gandhi echoed the sentiment, adding, “It blends global sounds with Indian emotion so effortlessly. It’s the kind of song that makes you smile while you’re feeling proud.”
The Film and the Faces Behind It
Heer Express features an interesting mix of fresh and familiar faces. Debutant Divita Juneja and Pritt Kamani lead the cast, joined by veteran actors Ashutosh Rana, Gulshan Grover, Sanjay Mishra, and Meghna Malik. Together, they bring to life a story that’s equal parts entertaining and emotionally grounded.
Produced by Umesh Shukla, Ashish Wagh, Mohit Chhabra, and Sanjay Grover, with Sampada Wagh as co-producer, the film comes from Tulip Entertainment in association with Merry Go Round Studios and Creative Strokes Group. Umesh Shukla, known for his ability to balance humor with heartfelt moments, is in the director’s chair.
Why I Love My India Works
Part of the charm of I Love My India lies in its timing and tone. Releasing it right before Independence Day taps into a nationwide wave of patriotic feeling, while its lively arrangement ensures it appeals to younger audiences who might not connect with more traditional renditions.
It’s a song that bridges generations — something you can play at a celebration, dance to at a gathering, or even listen to on your headphones while commuting. And in the context of Heer Express, it also reflects the film’s larger themes: love, identity, and the ties that bind us to where we come from.
As the countdown to the film’s release continues, this track might just be the perfect reminder that patriotism can be joyful, inclusive, and yes, a little bit foot-tapping.
