“I think having new music from her is such a blessing in this movie,” added Priyanka.
“It was just such a joy to be able to do this character because Mira is just a really sensitive, empathetic person who’s stuck in a place she can’t seem to get out of. And we’ve all been there.”

However, the number has since been reassigned to a journalist – played by Heughan – as his new work number.
As the exchanges between the two become more frequent, Heughan’s character is tasked with completing a feature on Céline Dion.
In a turn of events, Céline decides to help the journalist meet the widow to win her affection.
