Thank you! We did want to make it plausible and as accurate as the movie could afford!

@@MahinaKhanum ❤️❤️

Lol, never seen any wedding like this in my life. I live in India, specifically north India. I don't know how a Bengali knows the accurate description of a North Indian wedding.

LOL

​@@anshul5705 accurate rich people's wedding. I have seen a couple outside India.

Thank you very much! We put extra effort into making this scene as accurate as we could, despite the movie being a light comedy with no documentary pretention. I am really glad that it shows in the scene and that you like it!

Thank you very much, really appreciate it!

Thank you very much, Marc, this is really heartwarming! The tune is from the song "King Dee Wedding", an original composition by the duet Avinash-Vishwajeet. And thanks for your appreciation of the choreo!

Thank you so very much, we all put effort into making this scene realistic! And true, as the choreographer of this scene, I was impressed by how well Adam performed without any rehearsal.

No stereotypes? Lovely elephant 😂. But yeah, shadi hai, yaha sab chalta hai. The world’s stereotype is our daily job, we don’t give any fu*k

Thank you very much, feeling proud when reading your comment! ❤️🙏

It is a killer song for sure! It is titled "King Dee Wedding" and was composed by the Mumbai-based duet Avinash-Vishwajeet. The lyrics are plain Hindi, though they might sound a little altered and sometimes oddly cut by the editing process.

@@MahinaKhanum Oh that’s whats up! Anyways amazing track and thank you for the name…added to my playlist 😁

Thank you very much! We did try to make it as realistic as the movie could afford.

Wah! Thank you very much!

Thnk u not many will reply to their viewers ur so down to earth keep doing what u love😍

We all put effort into making this scene accurate, so your appreciation comes as a very nice compliment!

He is definitely hilarious, both on screen and in real life! But as the choreographer, I was impressed by how well he performed given that he had no training at all.

@@MahinaKhanum Wait...are you who I think you are?

@@michaelcrawford8401 Well, it depends who you think I am 😅

@@MahinaKhanum You choreographed the wedding dance! I've never actually chatted with a celebrity before! I loved this scene!

@@michaelcrawford8401 Thank you, a lot of efforts went into this scene and I really appreciate that you liked it! I am not a celebrity, though, just a choreographer doing my work as best as I can :)

Thank you very much! We did want to make it as accurate as the scene and the character could afford, I'm glad it shows in the movie :)

@@MahinaKhanum Trust me it really does….I am sure Indian movie fans are gonna love this…great job!

@@Valkyier911 The best compliment we could get 🙂🙏

Thank you very much! I hope it lives up to the beauty and energy of Bollywood. Lots of love from Paris!

@@MahinaKhanum Oh yes Mahina, I have watched the song thrice already & danced along with it. Not only the energy was infectious, but the dance moves were quite organized, defined & on the point 👍👍

@@thinkdeep4674 That's a super nice and on-the-point feedback, thank you! In Western movies, they shoot dance very differently than in India. We had to create a choreography which could be performed in one go, like on stage. But the end scene is shortened and some moves might look a little out of sync. Also, the dancers are supposed to be guests, so it was not meant to be a super pro performance. I'm glad you liked the moves and were able to follow!

Thank you! 🥰

The song is very nice indeed! "King Dee Wedding" by Avinash-Vishwajeet.

Thank you very much! Love from France!

True! You can see more about it here in the behind-the-scenes: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNR7i6iEmpmRj4U.html

Indeed, we do hope Netflix will release it soon!

@@MahinaKhanum its so good, the group dancing together and everyone happy, it just makes me really happy listening to it, its so well executed, wish it was a lot longer 🙏

@@BIGGELATO Thank you very much! Reading your comment fills me with happiness and pride!

Thank you so much! We all put a lot of effort into this scene and I am extremely happy you liked it!

Thank you so much, so happy that you loved the scene! ❤️

Thank you very much, David, this is really heartwarming! We made this scene with our hearts and it feels great to know that you enjoyed it so much! Greetings from Paris! 🙂🙏

Thank you very much! Really appreciated :)

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

❤️😊🙏

Thank you! 🙏

You're welcome!

Thank you!

True that! Every time I go to India, it feels like moving from black and white to color :)

@@MahinaKhanum Thanks for your beautiful reply Namste🙏🙏🙏

Thank you very much for the very kind and encouraging comment, it means a lot!

Thank you very much! 🙏

Thank you! We did want to make it as plausible and accurate as the movie could afford! 🙂🙏

True ! As the choreographer of this scene, I was all the more impressed by Adam that he had no rehearsal whatsoever!

Thank you very much, this is really heartwarming! 🙏

Thank you very much!

I wish you have the opportunity someday! Real Indian weddings are well beyond fiction :)

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much Santosh, this really makes me happy! We also hope they will release it soon!

Thank you! The song is "King Dee Wedding" by the Mumbai-based duet Avinash-Vishwajeet.

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Oh... Thank you so much, really humbled by your comment! We did want to make it as realistic as the script could afford. It's great that it shows in the movie.

Thank you!

The groom character in this movie is indeed more connected to North India.

Thank you! 😊🙏

It's "King Dee Wedding" by the Mumbai-based composer duo Avinash-Vishwajeet. It was composed specially for the movie. We do hope Netflix will release it soon (we are pushing for that!).

It's on Apple music

Thank you very much! The movie director Jeremy Garelick and all of us really cared about accuracy. I am glad it shows in the movie!

Because Netflix has not released it yet. But it sure is a hit song and we do hope they release it soon! By the way, it's a song by the duet Avinash-Vishwajeet.

Thank you very much! 🙏 How amazing, small world! So you are a cousin of Arushi?

@@MahinaKhanum he was in GV a I think 10 years back not new one. Never the less it’s good to connect if you need any dental help in london I’m here let me know happy to help a fellow GV

Indeed! Did you take part in this scene?

Jen is me in every Indian party…an awkward dancer 😂. But I did dance my heart out at my brothers wedding….I guess the body was feeling the joy! So, so beautiful and well choreographed! Thanks Mahina…you have a beautiful name too ❤❤

@@Highpriestess1126 Thank you very much! 😊🙏

😊❤️🙏

Merci beaucoup Ayoub ! Oui, vivement MM3, ou n'importe quel autre projet où on pourra t'embarquer avec nous :)

😊🙏

😊❤️🙏

Thank you!

Thank you! It could have been funnier indeed, but it was not going well with the script which specified "dance by the guests". Also, I must admit that Jen and Adam did surprisingly well despite not being trained at all. This may have further reduced the funny contrast with the other "guests". For the beautiful costumes, credit goes to the costume designer Debra McGuire :)

We tried not to!

Thank you, I'm glad it feels accurate!

Thank you so much! I can attest that the Director and all of the team cared about this, and I am glad it shows in the movie!

@@MahinaKhanum lots of love from 🇮🇳 India keep doing what you do best and we are all proud of you

@@ashishlal7212 Lots of love from Paris! 😊🙏

Thank you! We did try to make it as accurate as we could afford, even though "Murder Mystery 2" is just a light comedy. I am glad you appreciate it. The elephant might seem a bit stereotypical indeed, but we should see it in context. The character of the groom is a billionnaire, quirky Maharaja who likes to show off. He also likes everything stereotypical, not just about India but also about Europe (e.g. France = Eiffel tower, etc.). So the elephant goes well with his character in that specific context.

Definitely! We have conveyed this to Netflix many times, we do hope they will release the song.

Not yet. We do hope Netflix will release the song soon.

Thank you! Unfortunately Netflix has not released the song yet ("King Dee Wedding", by Avinash-Vishwajeet). We do hope they will soon.

@@MahinaKhanum Thanks anyway. I dont know if Netflix tracks any such data, but I saw the movie only after watching this song on KZfaq! It is such nice choreography, and the ending of the song just adds that intrigue to make you want to watch the whole thing! I would not have seen the movie but for this song :)

@@MohitSharma-th4qt Thank you very much! We will forward your comment to them 🙂

"King Dee Wedding" - Avinash-Vishwajeet!

We hope so. We are pushing for Netflix to release it, unfortunately without success so far.

We hope Netflix will release the song soon, but meantime we'll have to do with this...

Thanks! I agree that the elephant might seem a bit stereotypical, but we should see it in context. It plays well with the quirky character of the 'Maharaja' who loves everything stereotypical.

@@MahinaKhanum usually in indian wedding we repeat the same steps 4 times.... This looked like trained dancing rather than indian relatives dancing... It would have been more realistic ig.. But kudos to you for not making it shitty like eternals... I really enjoyed jen and Adams expression... Very natural

@@rash9931 In the movie, the guests have actually learned the steps with a tutorial. So it is not supposed to be completely improvised either (except for the American couple who hasn't practiced and is embarrassed). But I am happy we made something which lives up to a real Indian wedding.

@@rash9931 I do see your point but nowadays choreography is taken seriously in Indian weddings. The main family members often start training at least a week in advance to the wedding. Sangeet nights are big, and dance is no longer about just moving as you like. So the choreography does make sense actually!

Not yet, unfortunately. We do hope Netflix will release it soon.

So happy that you like this!

I wish Netfix did, really...

@@MahinaKhanum thanks and mind-blowing work you did

Questions are welcome, especially interesting questions like these! 1. It was not easy. Dancing is very uncommon for Western actors. It is all the more challenging when it comes to 'Bollywood' dance which not only requires good technical skills (rapidity, precision, fluidity, memory...), but also a lot of expressivity. 2. Clearly not, and Mélanie herself felt so. Initially, she was confident because her mom was a dance teacher. But the amount of work required from her was obviously underestimated. Having only a couple of hours to rehearse, a few days before the shooting, was a bit disappointing. 3. Given the circunstances, absolutely yes. 4. She was a quick learner indeed. But we also adapted and simplified her part of the choreography in order to "make things work". 5. It took 5 days to shoot the Sangeet scene, which I think was the most time-consuming scene of the entire movie. We did a lot of retakes, and what you see in the movie is about half of what we shot. But this was not only due to the dance. This was also one of the most complex scenes, involving all of the main cast, hundreds of extras (with their costuming / makeup / hairstyling), a very complex set, VFX, etc.

@@MahinaKhanum Thank you for such detailed answers to each question. When I saw this dance video from Hollywood, I thought it was awesome as didn't make cringe stereotype of Indians. The on-the-set (out of sync) improv dance by Jennifer and Adam made sense with the movie script. It was adorable to see them participate in the dance sequence. (Reminded me of Micheal Scott's Diwali dance from 'The Office'). But I felt the French actress was stiff in her performance (hand movements, expressions and thumkas). I recognised her from 'inglorious bastards'. So I assumed that she didn't practice much, because she had a "I am a big star" attitude on set. Usually, brides at Indian weddings practice a lot and give their best performance in front of friends and family. Anyways, I hope that you get to create more awesome dance numbers, and make something like the iconic RRR 'Natu Natu' dance.

​@@MahinaKhanum ​ You said the movie shows only half of what was shot. Is it likely that the full version will be released some time in the future? I think we all could do with some more of this song and choreography!

@@MohitSharma-th4qt Thank you! I think the song might be released someday ("King Dee Wedding" by Avinash-Vishwajeet), but the full choreography will probably not, because this is what they consider final. You can have a more lengthy view at both the song and the choreography in this behing the scenes video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNR7i6iEmpmRj4U.html

@@MahinaKhanum That's a pity. But thanks anyway!

The song in the movie is an original song titled "King Dee Wedding" and composed by the Mumbai-based duet Avinash-Vishwajeet.

I'm also literally on the hunt for similar tracks 🤣🤣

Here are some wedding themed Indian songs: • Kala Chasma • Oh ho ho ho (remix) • Tum Tum • Dharala Prabhu • Saratu Vandila (may not be a similar vibe, but my fav of all-time) • Ainvayi Ainvayi • Sadi Gali

Great idea! If only Netflix would agree to release the song!

"King Dee Wedding", by the duet Avinash-Vishwajeet!

King Dee Wedding but it isn't anywhere

@@leecollins924 We hope Netflix will release it soon, it sure is a killer song!

Well, that's already something 😅

Here, the guests have learned the steps on a tutorial :)

😂 Well, initially it was supposed to be the showing off of the bracelets / watches, but iPhones work well too!

"King Dee Wedding", by Avinash-Vishwajeet. It's was composed specially for the movie. We hope Netflix will release it soon.

❤️🙏

Initially, the elephant was supposed to panic and destroy the Sangeet tent :)

Hahaha true, major elements missing here! Though the overdressed sister has good reasons to be missing according to the script. 😅

Trust me, we have, and so did all the Indian advisors and creators who took part in this scene. Keep in mind that this is not a documentary. Also, as a professional Odissi dancer and ICCR grantee, trained in India under reputed gurus, I can tell you that dancing skills have much more to do with years of training and hours of daily practice than nationality.

Bro never went to rich wedding what you do at your naagin dance is limited to middle class upper class ones looks like this go see many videos of them it's available

Thanks! True about the elephant, but you have to see it in context, it goes with the character of the groom (i.e. a billionnaire 'Maharaja' who loves to impress).
