Bachna Ae Haseeno music launched


Vishal-Shekhar have revived the Kishore Kumar-RD Burman classic Bachna Ae Haseeno for Rishi Kapoor's son Ranbir's next release of the same name. At the music launch of the film, Buzz18 caught up with the duo to find out more about reworking this all-time chartbuster. Bur before we start the interview they say - "Don't bother who answers the questions. We both always say the same thing". Read on...

The first promos are just out and everyone's talking about the revived title track. Are you scared about Bachna Ae Haseeno overshadowing the rest of the soundtrack?

PROMO: Ranbir with Bips, Deepika, Minissha...

see Bachna Ae Haseeno is not a contest for us. Having this song in a Vishal-Shekhar album is like an aashirwaad, a blessing for us. Here is a song that has the names of RD Burman, Kishore Kumar and Majrooh Sultanpuri associated with it. For us, it's a way of showing our love for their work by paying a tribute to this song. It has to be the lead song of the film and there are no two ways about it. There is a certain aspirational value attached to this track for us. We know we can't compete with a song that's been a classic for 30 years. And can only hope someday even our music is remembered after so many years.

One of the most memorable songs from rishi kapoor's career and still so fresh to listen to. Getting rishi kapoor to jigg again on it along with his hunk of a son will surely be a crowd puller. But lets hope other original numbers from this movie are also good. Came across this kewl networkin site called Planet Radio City (www.planetradiocity.com). It talks only about music...so whether its jazz or gazals or rock or sufi or bollywood, you get all news and lyrics and trivia and even videos at one place. i signed up there n its real fun. Have a look. www.planetradiocity.com
