A few months back, Saba took to her Instagram handle to share a screengrab of a news report by Variety regarding 'Songs of Paradise'. The report announced the film and highlighted its unique storyline, which revolves around the first female singer at Radio Kashmir, a radio station in the valley of Kashmir. Sharing the post, Saba wrote, "In other news… songsofparadise."

Hrithik Roshan was among the first to react to Saba's post. He took to the comment section to praise her performance in the film, writing, "Every actor needs to see your performance in this one. Heart-wrenching. One of the best I have ever seen..EVER!" Saba responded with a jovial "Heyyyyy," while the film's director, Danish Renzu, also chimed in, agreeing with Hrithik's praise in the comments section below the post.

'Songs of Paradise' is directed by Danish Renzu and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under the banner of Excel Entertainment. The film is inspired by the life and music of Raj Begum (1927-2016), a Padma Shri awardee. It explores her journey of becoming a singer at a time when women had limited rights. The film highlights the people who opened doors for female artists in the valley, helping them break barriers and stereotypes.

The film includes a talented cast, including Soni Razdan, Zain Khan Durrani, Taaruk Raina, Sheebha Chaddha, Shishir Sharma, and Lillette Dubey. With a stellar lineup and a compelling storyline, 'Songs of Paradise' is poised to be a significant film in Indian cinema.

On the work front, Hrithik Roshan will next be seen in War 2, where he will play agent Kabir. Jr. NTR also plays a crucial role in the film. The movie will hit theatres on August 14, 2025.
