Natania Lalwani: Breaking Borders, One Global Hit At A Time
Last Updated: Blending Punjabi soul with global pop, Natania Lalwani is reshaping the soundscape of mainstream music—one cross-cultural hit at a time. From Mumbai to Los Angeles, from Punjabi beats to Hollywood soundtracks, Natania Lalwani is crafting a musical universe where culture meets pop magic with Rihanna, Disney, and even the Smurfs along for the ride. For Natania Lalwani, music isn't just about melodies, it's about emotion, connection, and fearlessly crossing borders. With songwriting credits for global heavyweights like Nick Jonas, Rihanna, Cardi B, and now a coveted spot on the Freaky Friday reboot soundtrack, the Indian-born, LA-based pop singer-songwriter is making waves that resonate far beyond genre or geography. 'I've always believed that music breaks all borders," Natania shares. 'No matter the market or style, at the heart of it, we're all trying to create something that moves people." Whether she's writing a vulnerable breakup ballad or crafting a joy-filled tune for The Smurfs, Natania's north star is authenticity and it shows. Repping Brown on the Global Stage With a powerful voice both on and off the mic, Natania is part of a larger movement redefining South Asian representation in global entertainment. 'There's a growing respect and curiosity for South Asian voices," she says, beaming with pride. 'We're not just showing up, we're leading." She cites names like Diljit Dosanjh and Karan Aujla as evidence of this shift, and her own career is a prime example: from viral desi-pop fusions to writing platinum-certified tracks for artists like Armaan Malik, Natania's discography reflects a bold, borderless sound. A Disney Dream, Reimagined Her latest milestone? Freaky Friday, Disney's reboot of the iconic film. 'It was a full circle moment," she says. 'My A&R sent in the song, and Disney loved it." A creative call with director Nisha Ganatra sealed the deal. The track itself, born from a serendipitous studio session with Jason Evigan, carries layers of heartbreak and hope. 'I was going through a breakup and just poured it all into the song," she laughs. 'It somehow matched the film's energy perfectly. It was fate!" Smurfs, Soundtracks, and Surreal Moments Then came The Smurfs. Her track 'Higher Love" brings a vibrant Punjabi-pop flavor to the animated film's international soundtrack. 'I grew up in Mumbai watching movies like this—it felt so far away," she reflects. 'To now be part of something global and still so personal, that's everything." The blue carpet premiere only added to the magic. 'Hearing my song, meeting Rihanna, it was electric!" Bridging Cultures, Finding Her Frequency Throughout it all, Natania's mission has remained clear: fuse her Indian heritage with the universal language of pop. 'It's like finding my own unique frequency," she says. 'It's heart-expanding. It makes me feel fully, authentically me." And fans have noticed, her work doesn't just blend cultures, it celebrates them. The Rahman Dream and What's Next When asked about a dream collaboration, her answer is instant: A.R. Rahman. 'It would be something timeless but fresh. Something that lives forever," she says. And while she stays tight-lipped about specifics, she teases more music on the horizon, with the Freaky Friday soundtrack dropping August 8. As for the buzz around her recent studio time with Rahman? She calls it 'a pinch-me moment." No surprise, most of her journey seems like one, the kind artists dream of but few actually live. But for Natania Lalwani, this is just the beginning.

As Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan's Freakier Friday nears release, here's recap of 2003 cult favourite Freaky Friday
As the highly anticipated sequel to Disney's 2003 body-swap comedy, Freakier Friday, prepares to hit Indian theatres on August 8, it's time to reminisce about the original. Mark Waters' Freaky Friday, a modern version of a classic Disney film that successfully blended magical elements with slapstick comedy and familial drama, featured cast members Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan at their best. Freaky Friday Classic tale of role reversal Freaky Friday is based on a novel by Mary Rodgers and follows the tumultuous relationship between widowed psychiatrist Dr. Tess Coleman (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her 15-year-old daughter, Anna (Lindsay Lohan). While mourning the loss of her father, Anna, a defiant teenager, feels that her workaholic and apparently strict mother does not understand her. Meanwhile, Tess is getting ready to tie the knot with her fiancé Ryan (Mark Harmon) and is continually irritated by Anna's conduct and lack of self-control. A pair of cursed fortune cookies causes them to mysteriously switch bodies one night at a Chinese restaurant, putting an end to their endless fighting. As the plot unfolds, we witness Tess and Anna put themselves in each other's shoes. Tess must attend high school as Anna, dealing with her bandmates, academic pressures, and bullies. While her mother is busy with work, therapy, interviews, and a wedding rehearsal dinner, Anna is trying to seem grown-up and handle all of her responsibilities. Finding empathy through chaos As a result of these tumultuous events, our protagonists begin to sympathise with one another. While Tess starts to understand the challenges of adolescence, particularly when dealing with loss, Anna recognises the mental and emotional burdens her mother bears. Their journey towards empathy drives the film's emotional arc, and the body swap serves as a narrative device to foster progress. The film did well at the box office and among critics. The performance by Jamie Lee Curtis was nominated for a Golden Globe, and Lohan's turn as both an angsty teen and a mother trapped in a teenager's body was widely appreciated. Harold Gould played Tess' father, and Chad Michael Murray played Jake, Anna's crush. Teen comedy that stood test of time As one of the most memorable teen comedies of the early 2000s, Freaky Friday has garnered a devoted fan following throughout the years. Teenagers and their parents could relate to the touching and amusing depiction of generational miscommunication. Reunited in their legendary roles, Curtis and Lohan return to Freakier Friday over two decades later. The sequel, directed by Nisha Ganatra, will cover a fresh phase of the mother-daughter relationship, with Tess being older and Anna having grown up. The reunion of the original leads has excited fans who grew up with the film, although Disney has kept plot elements mostly under wraps. Where to watch before sequel arrives Now would be a wonderful time to see Freaky Friday again on JioHotstar (OTTplay Premium), since the sequel will be released in India on August 8, 2025.
