Quotes
Kushagra Sharma
Director of The Great Escape: Faraar
“My sister, Srishti Sharma, the producer of the film, and I have always been fans of Money Heist. Bella Ciao worked so well there because it represents rebellion, and our film is also about a common man who is pushed by the system and then stands up for his family. Srishti reached out to Ivan and his team, and things progressed from there.”

“We wanted the track to have its own identity. It has Indian elements and fusion. The spirit of rebellion remains, but the way it has been adapted gives it a completely new feel. Ivan has composed one song for the film and the background score as well”

Ivan M. Lacamara
Composer of Money Heist and The Great Escape: Faraar
“What interested me was the possibility of combining my music with Indian music, using instruments like the bansuri and tabla. I have always been fascinated by Indian music because of its rhythmic and harmonic depth. The music originated as a cinematic theme for an early segment. When it was so well received, they wanted to create an extended version that was quicker, more electronic, and could function as a standalone track.”
