Prime Video India’s upcoming father-daughter dance drama “Be Happy,” starring Abhishek Bachchan, has locked in its global premiere date.
The Remo D’Souza-directed feature, produced under Remo Dsouza Entertainment Pvt Ltd by Lizelle Remo D’Souza, centers on the relationship between devoted single father Shiv (Bachchan) and his quick-witted daughter Dhara (Inayat Verma), who dreams of competing on the country’s biggest dance reality show. When an unexpected crisis threatens her ambitions, Shiv embarks on what’s described as an “extraordinary journey” to keep his daughter’s hopes alive.
Nora Fatehi co-stars alongside Bachchan and Verma, with Nassar, Johny Lever, and Harleen Sethi rounding out the supporting cast.
“For Lizelle and me, ‘Be Happy’ is a true passion project – a deeply moving story that celebrates the special bond between a father and daughter through the magic of music and dance. It’s a relationship that’s universal and transcends cultures, and we wanted to bring that emotion to life in a way that feels both authentic and uplifting,” Remo D’Souza said. “Collaborating with Prime Video on this film has been an amazing journey, with their support at every step. And the cast – pure magic. They brought so much heart and soul to their performances, making the story even more powerful.”
Nikhil Madhok, head of originals at Prime Video India, added: “With Abhishek Bachchan leading a stellar ensemble, this film about a father’s unwavering journey to support his daughter’s aspirations, delivers powerful performances wrapped in warmth and optimism. Remo D’Souza’s storytelling brings a fresh perspective, making this a truly memorable and uplifting experience.”
The streamer will make the film available in the Hindi language with dubs in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada when it premieres across India and over 240 countries and territories worldwide on March 14.
