Secret
Superstar
Secret Superstar is an Indian musical drama film, written and directed
by Advait Chandan and produced by Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao. The film features
Zaira Wasim, Meher Vij and Aamir Khan in lead roles, and tells the story of a
child who aspires to be a singer.
The story is of a Muslim girl Insia (Zaira Wasim), who aspires to be a
singer. She seeks a pompous music director named Shakti Kumar (Aamir Khan) to
achieve her dream. Inside a studio in Mumbai, a foul-mouthed musician struggles
to record a song as per his producer’s wish. It is a tune he composed a decade
ago, but his songs have been reduced to being mere remixes of his own original
tunes over the years. It seems like a trap he would never escape. And then he
hears a voice, the voice. For the first time in years, he refuses to compromise
on his composition and delivers a song that’s going to introduce the world to a
new artiste, somebody who isn’t willing to show her face. A secret superstar. Insiya
(Zaira Wasim) isn’t a bright student. She is struggling with her studies, her
rage, domestic abuse, and an environment that may not let her take the leap of
faith, ever. Insiya thinks the world of her mother, Najma (Meher Vij).
Together, they dare to dream of the times when they’ll stand on their own. But
Insiya’s middle-class household in Vadodara is reeling under the terror
unleashed by her violent father, played by Raj Arjun. Being financially
dependent on him, years of conditioning have weakened the family. But they
aren’t broken yet. Insiya is quite mature for her age. She tries her best to
convince Najma to go in for divorce. Given her condition, it seems like the
right decision. She is aware of her singing talent, but she doesn’t have a plan
of action. The opinionated yet vulnerable teenager catches the attention of
Shakti Kumaarr (Aamir Khan), a loud and two-time divorced Bollywood musician.
Though theirs is an odd pairing, they could just come up with a winner of a
song. A well-meaning yet ambitious girl, a cruel father, a meek mother, and a
loving younger brother. This movie has all the ingredients. And then, along
comes Shakti Kumaarr and charms his way into the audience’s heart with his
antics. The movie also depicts a cute school love story between Insiya and her
friend Chintan (Tirth Sharma). He is more of an ally who tries to validate the
director’s ideas of separation in marriages. Actually, it’s Aamir Khan’s
arrival in the film that adds charm to Secret Superstar. His superficiality and
self-obsession evoke smiles. He controls the flow of Secret Superstar before it
becomes a public service message on domestic violence. The theme of an abused
girl taking to music and the internet is intriguing.
The film has Zaira Wasim as Insia Malik, Meher Vij as Najma Malik,
Insia's Mother, Aamir Khan as Shakti Kumaarr, Raj Arjun as Farookh Malik,
Insia's Father, Kabir Sajid as Guddu, Insia's younger brother, Tirth Sharma as
Chintan Parekh, Harsh Jha, Aryan Ashik and Manuj Sharma as Ranjeet.
The soundtrack of Secret Superstar has been composed by Amit Trivedi
with the lyrics being written by Kausar Munir. The movie has songs like "Main
Kaun Hoon", "Meri Pyaari Ammi", "Sapne Re", "I'll
Miss You", "Nachdi Phira", "Sexy Baliye", "Gudgudi"
and "O Re Manwa".
