A peppy song that makes you dance instantly, it certainly became the song of the tournament that took place in France that year.

Freshlyground, that has remained with us till today, as it gets played not only during football tournaments but also parties as people dance along to the song.
The song was written by the Colombian singer and American music producer and songwriter John Hill, and features the South African band Freshlyground, for the tournament that took place in South Africa in 2010.
It was sampled from the 1986 Cameroonian makossa song `Zamina mina (Zangalewaa), by the group Golden Sounds, and has lived with us since then, and one has to listen to it with the football tournament around the corner]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jun/Shakirasongphotos.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Wavin` FlagThe World Cup that gave us `Waka Waka` also gave us `Wavin` Flag`, a song by Somali-Canadian singer K`naan, that was used by Coca Cola as its promotional anthem for the 2010 edition.
Interestingly, the song was a part of the artist`s 2009 album `Troubadour` and became an instant hit. It was originally written for the people of Somalia and their aspirations, but was also used as a song of hope after the Haiti earthquake.
Over time, football fans across the world including India keep revisiting it because of its peppy beats

Collaborating with Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte, it continued the tradition of FIFA World Cup anthems that have become iconic since then, and end up being dance numbers at every party.
The song is part of `One Love, One Rhythm  The 2014 FIFA World Cup Official Album` and was co-written by Sia, RedOne, Danny Mercer, Dr. Luke, Cirkut, and Thomas Troelsen]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/jun/WillSmithnews.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[`Live it Up`While the bar was set really high with the previous ones, `Live it Up` by Nicky Jam, Will Smith, and Era Istrefi put together this track for the FIFA World Cup 2018 in Russia, and is worth a listen, if you are revisiting the FIFA anthems.
Last but not the least, `Hayya Hayya` by Trinidad Cardona, Davido,  Aisha for the 2022 edition is definitely worth revisiting because of its unique tunes that are unlike any other before.

Their pain cannot be contained in words. A mother and father have lost their son, and they were guilty of nothing. Millions of children across the country are living under the pressure of studies, competition, and their future. And when a paper leak happens, it`s not just one exam that breaks--it`s a child`s dream, and an entire family that shatters. Pradeep`s death was not suicide--it was the consequence of a broken, corrupt system. Those who handed the examination system over to mafias, and who are still clinging to their chairs today--the Modi-Shah duo is accountable to this family," he wrote in the post]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/RahulGandhiNEET6.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Additionally, the Congress leader also met with some NEET aspirants and reflected on their suffering, stating that the aspirants "no longer have faith in this system."

The recent recreation of the popular song from Biwi No.1 has once again sparked discussions around Bollywoods remake culture.

Even Arijit Singhs soulful voice could not save the remake of the globally loved Pasoori by Ali Sethi and Shae Gill for the film SatyaPrem Ki Katha. The original track became a worldwide phenomenon, making the remake even harder to accept for fans. Many questioned why a heartbreak anthem was remade into a romantic Bollywood number in the first place]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/Chor-Bazari-Phir-Se.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Chor Bazari Phir Se
The makers of Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbis Bhool Chuk Maaf attempted to recreate Chor Bazaari from Imtiaz Alis Love Aaj Kal.

One of the most recognisable songs of the 1990s, Sheher Ki Ladki originally featured Raveena Tandon and Suniel Shetty in Rakshak. The recreated version, released for Khandaani Shafakhana and featuring Badshah and Diana Penty, left many disappointed. Fans argued that it relied too heavily on flashy visuals and modern beats while missing the effortless fun and simplicity of the original]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/WhatsApp Image 2026-05-28 at 11.41.35 (1).jpeg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Dus Bahane 2.0
A cult hit from the early 2000s, Dus Bahane already had a massive fan following. News of its recreation was met with criticism even before release.

L`Oreal is the official make-up partner of the festival and the brand invites its global ambassadors for the festival. Alia Bhatt is one of the most prominent talents from India and whether you like it or not, she has represented India gracefully far better than most people can ever imagine?

There is no doubt that the love for Aishwarya Rai is still intact. So much so that at the beginning of the festival, fans bashed L`Oreal for not mentioning the Beauty queen in their line-up.

At Cannes 2026, conversations around artificial intelligence shifted from fear to cautious acceptance.While a humanoid robot on the Croisette symbolised concerns about machines replacing human creativity, industry leaders acknowledged that AI is becoming unavoidable. Jury member Demi Moore stated that fighting AI is a battle we will lose, urging the industry to find ways to work alongside the technology. Although Cannes officially banned films using generative AI from its competition section, AI had a visible presence at the festival market. Meta partnered with the festival, and its AI tools were used in Steven Soderberghs documentary John Lennon: The Last Interview, signalling a major shift for independent cinema.]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/image-107.jpeg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[The Market is not the festival
Many makers advertised that their film is being premiered at the festival. However, barring Mehar Malhotra`s Punjabi short film, no other Indian film was part of the main competition. Filmmakers can exhibit their films at the Market for a fee. This a point that Indian filmmaker Anurag Kashyap stressed at many places]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/WhatsApp Image 2026-05-25 at 13.45.52 (2).jpeg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Why is Urvashi still here?

While it was great seeing actor Ashok Saraf get his due on a platform like Cannes, several other Marathi celebs might have gone over board with the representation that takes away attention from the films.
Reports suggest the team travelled to Cannes for the global launch and promotion of the OTT platform Abhijat Marathi. The presence of Marathi artists at Cannes this year highlighted the growing international visibility of regional Indian entertainment industries beyond mainstream Bollywood]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/WhatsApp Image 2026-05-25 at 14.00.04.jpeg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[





The Furious French 
The biggest controversy at Cannes 2026 unfolded away from the red carpet, centering on a growing conflict between French film professionals and media giant Canal+. Ahead of the festival, around 600 industry figures, including Juliette Binoche and Ad&egrave;le Haenel, signed an open letter condemning media mogul Vincent Bollor&eacute; and accusing his expanding media empire of attempting a fascist takeover of the collective imagination. Tensions escalated after Canal+ CEO Maxime Saada reportedly threatened to blacklist those supporting the petition, prompting thousands more &mdash; including international stars like Javier Bardem and Mark Ruffalo &mdash; to join the movement. By the festivals end, the petition had over 3,500 signatures, while audiences openly booed Canal+ and Studiocanal logos during screenings. With France heading into elections next year, the clash reflects wider political and cultural tensions in the country

This years Cannes Film Festival lacked its usual big Hollywood presence, with major filmmakers and studios choosing to skip the event altogether. Unlike previous years, when stars like Tom Cruise brought blockbuster premieres to the festival, there was not a single major studio film on the Cannes red carpet in 2026. Ironically, the festivals biggest crowd gathered for a 25th anniversary screening of The Fast and the Furious, highlighting Cannes struggle to create fresh Hollywood buzz. Industry experts believe studios avoided Cannes due to rising costs, harsh critical scrutiny, and the uncertain impact of festival premieres on box office performance. Recent successes of blockbuster films released without festival debuts have further suggested that Hollywood studios may no longer view Cannes as essential for publicity or awards momentum]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/WhatsApp Image 2026-05-25 at 13.45.52.jpeg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Influencers overdose?









If social media influencers taking over our Instagram algorithm wasnt enough, the growing number of influencers collaborating with brands and heading to Cannes has now become annoying. It would still have been understandable if these influencers spoke about the films at the festival. However, there has barely been any conversation around cinema from the influencers walking the red carpet at Cannes

In the coming years, we hope the conversation around India at Cannes becomes less about turning the festival into a fashion runway and more about celebrating films and the power of Indian storytellers.

Lewis, 40, Bandra WestAfter 22 years, we lift a trophy we`ve been chasing and getting so close to for the past few seasons. This means a lot and should be a watershed moment for the club as this should be the beginning of a new chapter of dominance in the English football stratosphere! The Champions League is next. It`s been 20 years since we were in a Champions League final. I can still remember Sol Campbell`s header in Paris which almost got us over the line until Henrik Larsson happened. This time it`s different, there`s electricity in the air and nothing but optimism.

Arsenal winning the Premier league feels like a dream come true. It hasn`t sunk in yet that they have actually done it. I don`t know how I`m going to react come Sunday when I actually see them lifting the trophy at Selhurst Park. It`s been a long and torturous wait. Calling it an emotional rollercoaster would be an understatement. I have supported Arsenal since 2007, and unfortunately for me, that has largely been in the post-glory years of Arsene Wenger. It was the Emirates era, marked with suffering with Wenger, the man who built the Emirates. As people rightly say, Mikel Arteta turned the lights on and added the soul into the place.]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/ArsenalwinsEPL2026Indianfansnewsphotos.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Ryan Torres, 31, VikhroliWe are finally seeing our club win the league again after 22 years. Through all the trolling, heartbreaks, late-night matches, and next season bro jokes, we still stayed loyal. Arsenal has literally been part of my childhood and adulthood journey. So, seeing them finally lift the trophy again feels personal, emotional, and honestly, unforgettable. Like Henry said, this team could be The Unforgettables if they won, and they have done exactly that.]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/ArsenalMumbaisuperfansnewstoday.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Colin Sequiera, 32, Vasai WestArsenal winning the EPL title feels unreal. Twenty-two years of waiting, heartbreak, banter, and belief &mdash; and now finally seeing Arsenal back on top of England by winning the EPL&hellip; its pure emotion. This one is different. Ive supported Arsenal since 1997 (my dad was an Arsenal fan), when I was four years old. So this honestly feels emotional beyond words. I was lucky enough to witness The Invincibles growing up, and after that, its been 22 years of waiting, hoping, getting hurt, and still believing every single season. Thats why this title means so much. Its not just about winning the league &mdash; it feels like seeing a piece of your childhood come back to life. But at the same time, its not over yet. The season isnt done. Weve still got a Champions League final coming up in about a weeks time. Stay humble, stay focused, and lets give it everything in Budapest.]]></image:caption><image:loc><![CDATA[https://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2026/may/ArsenalMumbaifanslatestnews.jpg]]></image:loc><image:caption><![CDATA[Rival fan - Sanjay Lawrence, 33, Vasai West
I became a Manchester United fan at the peak of the Alex Ferguson - Arsene Wenger era, fortunate enough to be pampered with titles and a team of mentality monsters. Along came Wenger in the middle of all this and gave Arsenal a title in the classiest way possible. Since then, you could see the hope Arsenal fans carried into every season, which disappeared as every season wore on.
What Mikel Arteta and this group of players have achieved this season is extraordinary. We as rival fans questioned their mentality, while Arsenal tested everyones patience with their relentless set-piece routines (Haramball, anyone?). But winning is winning, however it comes, and these players have earned their moniker as a certain Thierry Henry put it - `The Unforgettables`
