Indo-Turkish musical \'Jaan-e-Jahan\' redefines cinema

Hyderabad: Seshu KMR, an acclaimed director hailing from the vibrant Telugu film industry in India, is set to revolutionize cinematic boundaries with his latest project, "Jaan e Jahan." This musical extravaganza marks a historic collaboration between Turkish and Indian cinema, a feat never before achieved.

A protege of the legendary Indian filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, Seshu KMR has directed this groundbreaking musical, beautifully captured through the lens of the highly talented Turkish cameraman, Seryan AY. Starring the renowned Indian actor, Siva Balaji, and the Turkish sensation, Ayla, the production spans an incredible 1400 kilometers, spanning the scenic landscapes of Istanbul, Ankara, Cappadocia, and Tokat.

The heart and soul of "Jaan e Jahan" lie in its music, composed and sung by the Indian film industry's celebrated talent, Bollywood's own Shivam Pathak. Supriya Joshi adds her enchanting voice to this masterpiece. The lyrics, penned by the exceptionally gifted lyricist Yukti, create an emotional landscape that transcends borders.

This musical single video is a joint effort of Mr. Tajamul Hussain, Filmi Indo-Turkish Alliance, Hashmi Group Turkey, and Seshu KMR Playback Entertainment, India. It was grandly unveiled in Tokat, Turkey, during the Indo-Turkish Cultural Festival. The event witnessed the presence of South Indian luminaries such as Suman Talwar, Naresh Vijay Krishna, and the popular Telugu actor Siva Balaji, alongside a captivated Turkish audience.

What sets "Jaan e Jahan" apart is its distinction as the first-ever musical collaboration between India and Turkey. This remarkable achievement can be attributed to the relentless efforts of Mr. Tajamul Hussain, the founder of Filmi Indo-Turkish Alliance, a subsidiary of the renowned Hashmi Group based in Tokat, Turkey.

The accolades continue to pour in for "Jaan e Jahan." The music video was awarded the Best Music Video at the Jammu International Film Festival and has garnered nominations at several international film festivals.

Seshu KMR is no stranger to success, having previously been recognized for his musical endeavors. His earlier works, such as "Kala," were awarded the Best Regional Musical at the Rajasthan International Film Festival in 2022 and received acclaim at various other film festivals. His recent Hindi musical, "Haal E Dil," shone as the Best Musical at both the Bangkok International Film Festival 2023 and the Dubai International Film Festival.

With "Jaan e Jahan" setting new standards in cross-cultural creativity, Director Seshu KMR is poised to continue his remarkable journey in cinematic innovation. He's currently in pre-production for a full-length feature film, featuring Indian and Turkish actors, which will be exclusively shot in Turkey for a 60-day schedule.
