Sharvari reveals Sooraj Barjatya’s approach to filming ‘Jhumka Patola’

Bollywood actress Sharvari, who is gearing up for the release of her upcoming film “Yeh Prem Mol Liya,” has said that the song “Jhumka Patola” from the film gave her the opportunity to explore her love for dance in a way she hadn’t before as she was under the aegis of Sooraj R. Barjatya whose songs have defined the soundscape in Hindi cinema of the 90s.

The actress said that Sooraj Barjatya’s approach goes beyond choreography, with every movement and expression rooted in the story. Talking about the same, she said in a statement, “I’ve always loved dancing, but with Sooraj sir, a song is so deeply woven into the narrative that you can’t look at it as just a dance performance. While shooting ‘Jhumka Patola,’ he would walk me through what the moment meant for my character and share stories from the songs he has made over the years, and I tried to carry that into every step and expression.”

The actress has made a strong impression with her energetic dance performances in Bollywood, particularly with chartbusters like “Taras” from “Munjya” and “Holiyaan” from “Vedaa.”

In “Taras,” her first major solo dance number, Sharvari showcased her screen presence, confident moves and ability to carry a vibrant, contemporary Bollywood track. The song received attention for its catchy beats and her performance.

She further mentioned, “Dance has its own language, and sometimes a song can say what a scene simply cannot. There’s a reason certain songs stay with us for years, they become inseparable from the characters and moments we remember.

“Jhumka Patola” let me explore my love for dance in a way I hadn’t before, and after the warmth the title track “Yeh Prem Mol Liya” has received, I can’t wait for audiences to experience it.” “Yeh Prem Mol Liya” is set to release in cinemas on Nov.27, 2026.

Meanwhile, Sharvari has shared that Bollywood songs and dance are actually a big part of why she wanted to become an actor. Speaking about the video, Sharvari said, “Bollywood songs and dance are actually a big part of why I wanted to become an actor. I grew up watching Madhuri ma’am in ‘Didi Tera Devar Deewana,’ Karisma ma’am and Sonali ma’am in ‘Maiyya Yashoda,’ and I would come home and dance to these songs, imagining myself as that heroine on screen one day.”

The actress credits these moment for helping her fall in love with Bollywood. “I think somewhere, those moments made me fall in love with the idea of Bollywood,” she said.

The actress said that she always loved romance. “I’ve always loved the romance, emotion and larger-than-life magic of classic Bollywood songs, the way you could tell an entire story through a song and dance. So getting to experience that with Sooraj Barjatya Ji’s Yeh Prem Mol Liya feels incredibly special.”

Sharvari added: “It feels like a beautiful full-circle moment, getting to live the kind of Bollywood I grew up watching and dreaming about. I’m genuinely enjoying every moment of it.”
