On a sound note

Filmmaker Karan Johar can’t stop humming the much sought after soundtrack of the season.

At a time when Himesh Reshammiya rules the roost, will Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy score with their music in Johar’s Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (KANK)? "I am very proud of my music in KANK. This is the second time that Javed (Akhtar) saab and Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy have teamed up for a Dharma production.

And this is by far the more difficult score," said Johar. The film stars the father-son duo Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Rani Mukerji and Preity Zinta.

"You have to hear the words Javed saab has written for the title song. I get tears in my eyes every time I hear it but my favourite is Mitwa, an evocative ballad picturised on Shah Rukh. It just rips the screen apart.

"There’s a dance number Where’s the party tonight filmed on Abhishek and a love duet Tum bhi deko na filmed on Shah Rukh and Rani. Our effort is to take my music ahead of that of Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and Kal Ho Naa Ho." — IANS
