More news →'Tere Bin' composer Mithoon gears up for his next release
'Bas Ek Pal' may have been a disappointment at the box office but it has worked maximum for the composer of the film - Mithoon. Now that's a little ironic since Mithoon was not even the prime composer for the film [it was Viveck Philip instead] and he was roped in mainly as a guest composer for the two songs, out of which one, 'Tere Bin' by Atif, became super hit. The album is still maintaining wonderful sales all over and while basking in the glory of the success, Mithoon is all geared up for the release of his next soundtrack for the film 'Anwar'. About the music, he says, "It is far away from the kind that I have composed for 'Bas Ek Pal'. Manish Jha, the director of 'Anwar', is again so different in his treatment of the situation and accordingly I had to mould my music to suit his needs. I have seen a 4 minute promo of the film and I am proud to be associated with 'Anwar' since its entire look and texture is so interesting." 'Anwar' stars Siddharth Koirala and Naudeed Cyrusi in the lead along with Rajpal Yadav, Vijay Raaz, Yashpal Sharma and Hiten Tejwani. Pankaj Awasthi also composes for the film apart from Mithoon. After 'Anwar', Mithoon would also be heard in Raksha Mistry-Hasnain Hyderabadwala directed 'Train', the shooting for which is currently in progress at Bangkok. Apart from this, he is also working on a private album with Atif, the sensation behind 'Tere Bin', for TIPS. He also some international assignments in hands, most notably being music for a Malaysian film titled DIVA where he has composed 5 songs in Malay language. Loloq, who is the number one lyricist of Malaysian movies, has written the lyrics. Mithoon says, "This is the first time ever that a musical collaboration of this kind has happened between India and Malaysia. I am quite excited about this project since I would also be doing the background music for the film."
Three Horse Race This Friday.
Three movies are releasing this Friday. All of them are totally opposite to each other and with reasonable amount of publicity backing each one of them. The biggest of them is the family entertainer 'Vivah directed by Sooraj Barjatya, the maker of huge hits like 'Maine Pyaar Kiya' and 'Hum Apke Hain Kaun'. Starring Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao, this journey from engagement to marriage is not carrying good reports. The biggest drawback is the lackluster music score by Ravindra Jain. Mr Barjatya has given family hits earlier but somehow the makers themselves don't sound too confident about their own product which was evident at the recent Press Conference. Although I would want 'Vivah' to work, for Sooraj Barjatya comes across as an extremely amiable and sincere person, but I don't think his film will work. Percept Picture Company has started publicity for Tanveer Khan's 'Deadline' rather late in the day. The date of release was announced rather abruptly and although the promos of this Konkona Sensharma, Irfan Khan, Sandhya Mridul and Rajit Kapoor film seem pacy-n-promising, the film hasn't really created any buzz. The title 'Deadline' may go against the film and even the posters where Konkana's face is superimposed on Irfan's is confusing about the plot of the film. It shall not be taking a good opening and its biggest plus point is its low cost. If the word of mouth is good then it can make a jingling sound for the producer's ears. But that once again is a big 'If'. Lastly, Mukta Arts' comedy film 'Apna Sapna Money Money' is one film that seems the only one that can do some magic at the ticket window. This Sangeeth Sivan (Remember he made the raunchy 'Kya Kool Hain Hum' stars Riteish Deshmukh (As a drag queen and more hilarious get-ups), Shreyas Talpade (red hot after imposter-act in 'Dor'), Koena Mitra, Riya Sen and Celina Jaitley (Ample Oomph Quotient). It's a comedy with club house numbers composed by Pritam. I would bet on this one'. Why don't you guys tell us which film out of the three you would want to watch this weekend. And why!
