Higher Love is the lead single from the soundtrack of Paramount Animation’s highly anticipated SMURFS movie. This historic partnership marks a major milestone in South Asian representation in Western entertainment, featuring the first-ever Punjabi Indian song in a Hollywood animated film. The track is produced by DESI TRILL, an innovative music label focused on Indian heritage, and is globally distributed by Universal Music Group. Remove Ad Smurfs is slated for a theatrical release on July 18, 2025, promising a delightful mix of nostalgia and modern storytelling for audiences across the globe. The release coincides with the launch of the SMurFS movie trailer, which has already sparked excitement, especially with pop icon Rihanna lending her voice to Smurfette. This dynamic song is a creative reinterpretation of Belinda Carlisle’s Heaven Is A Place On Earth, featuring Natania’s English vocals alongside an all-Punjabi hook performed by singer-songwriter Subhi. The result is a unique fusion of mainstream hip-hop energy and rich South Asian musical elements, reflecting the growing international acclaim for Indian music.
