The upcoming film ‘Selfiee starring Akshay Kumar and Emraan Hashmi, which is a remake of the runaway Malayalam hit ‘Driving Licence, will see the record label Desi Music Factory making its foray into Bollywood.

Setting the tone for the film, Dharma Productions head Karan Johar said: “The film announcement of ‘Selfiee’ makes the zone of the film clear. One of its highlights is its music which gives away the vibe of the story.”

He added: “Everything, right from the instruments, the vibe, the beats and the lingo in the announcement resonates with the brand of music Desi Music Factory has sculpted over the years. The label has shared the country’s cultural identity with the world and it feels promising to have these hitmakers on our side.”

Apoorva Mehta, CEO, Dharma Productions, said: “We’re in an industry that is acutely dynamic. While we are figuring out new ways to tell stories, we’re also exploring talent that can lend a narrative through music.”
