New Song Promo 'Jag Soona Soona Lage' - Om Shanti Om
Rahat Fateh Ali Khan to fill a song with such heart rending emotion, that it will move you no end. And trust Richa Sharma to top it all with some Punjabi lyrics at the beginning of the song (which are not your run-of-the-mill ‘haye-o-rabba’s). Vishal-Shekhar came to be known as good composers

Om Shanti Om revives reincarnation and hope for a resounding blockbuster
Amidst comedies and love stories, Farah Khan's Om Shanti Om revisits the reincarnation theme after many years.
Trade analysts say it will work at the box office as it has all the right ingredients. And the main theme suits the Indian psyche.
"I think it's a good idea to make a film on reincarnation because people in India believe in it. My favourite film has always been Karz and Karan Arjun. I think Om Shanti Om will do well at the box office because people like such films," trade analyst Taran Adarsh told IANS.
Farah has teamed up with her favourite actor Shah Rukh Khan and newcomer Deepika Padukone in the film, which is apparently inspired by Subhash Ghai's Karz.
The film revolves around a struggling actor, played by Shah Rukh, who falls in love with a successful actress. But before his love could blossom and his career flourish, he dies in an accident.
Apart from the rebirth formula, Farah has thrown in all the right ingredients, including humour, music and masala.
The choreographer-turned-director did the same in her directorial debut Main Hoon Na. She had banked on the tried and tested formula of uniting two brothers and it turned out to be a gold digger.
Critics described that movie as a good entertainer, and even three years after its release, Farah is basking in its glory.
"Om Shanti Om will certainly work. The first half of the film is about the 70s and the second half is absolutely modern - Farah Khan has put all the right ingredients for a blockbuster," said Saurabh Varma, vice president (programming and distribution), INOX Leisure Ltd.
"There is a tremendous demand for the film not only from multiplex owners but also single screen theatre owners. It's like an ice cream which has all the flavours and would satisfy everybody's taste buds," Varma said.
Legendary director Bimal Roy was perhaps the first to embark on the theme of reincarnation.
He popularised rebirth and reincarnation in Hindi cinema with his masterpiece Madhumati. Released in 1958, the Dilip Kumar Vyjanthimala starrer boasts of an engrossing story, mind-blowing performances and soulful music by Salil Choudhury.
Madhumati walked away with nine Filmfare Awards including for the best film, direction and music.
A decade later Adurthi Subba Rao recycled the theme in another hit Milan. The Sunil Dutt-Nutan starrer revolved around two lovers who are united in their next birth. The film was a huge success and its music was equally appealing.
Ram Maheshwari's Neel Kamal was released the following year. Audiences again lapped up the rebirth formula film, which had Raj Kumar, Waheeda Rehman and Manoj Kumar in key roles.
In 1976, Shakti Samantha adopted the subject in Mehbooba. Featuring Hema Malini and Rajesh Khanna, the film was not a big hit but it did fair business at the box office.
Chetan Anand repeated the same lead pair and the subject in his well-scripted and deftly executed Kudrat.
However, it was Bollywood's self-proclaimed showman Subhash Ghai who hit the bull's eye by recycling the reincarnation subject in his revenge thriller Karz. The Rishi Kapoor starrer turned out to be one of the biggest hits.
In 1990, Gulzar repeated the theme in his critically acclaimed Lekin. The film featuring Vinod Khanna and Dimple Kapadia couldn't stir the box office but its music, composed by Hridaynath Mangeshkar, was well appreciated. The song Yaara seeli seeli sung by Lata Mangeshkar was hugely popular.
Filmmaker Rakesh Roshan too hit the jackpot in 1995 in Karan Arjun. The onscreen chemistry between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan did wonders to this rebirth saga.
But two years later when Sanjay Gupta tried his hand at reincarnation in Hamesha, he bit the dust. The Saif Ali Khan and Kajol starrer was a huge flop.
Going by past records, Farah's film, which releases Nov 9, may recreate the same magic that Madhumati, Karz and Karan Arjun wove.

Om Shanti Om and Saawariya both have their importance they do not compete with each other
The two pre-eminent films of the year, Saawariya and Om Shanti Om, are likely to rewrite the rules of film marketing in India.
Both the films are releasing Nov 9 and the distributors have waged an aggressive publicity campaign.
Shah Rukh Khan’s 6-pack abs in Om Shanti Om are being used to lure the audience. In Saawariya, Ranbir and Sonam Kapoor, the scions of two illustrious Bollywood families, are touted as the film’s high points.
But the competition to market the films is tough. Because Om Shanti Om, Farah Khan’s second directorial venture, has the backing of Shah Rukh and his Red Chillies Entertainment, Saawariya has director Sanjay Leela Bhansali at the helm with Hollywood studio Sony Pictures backing him.
Reportedly, Sony Pictures, the co-producer of Saawariya, has allocated Rs 200 million for the film’s publicity. It is not surprising because Hollywood is known for exorbitant marketing budgets for movies.
Sony had released 750 Saawariya trailers in India and another 800 globally last month. No Indian film has got such a widespread first look.
the marketing budget for Om Shanti Om is not known, the cost of the film is reported to be Rs 350 million while Saawariya has been made at a budget of Rs 400 million.

Om Shanti Om's Music Scintilates!
Om Shanti Om, the magnum opus by Farah Khan, can be best described as visually appealing and sonically delightful.
After the spectacular success of Chak De, King Khan stars with the stunning Deepika Padukone, in the year’s most awaited big banner release.
The young dynamic duo of Vishal and Shekhar has proved their mettle with this album, which is sure to put their detractors on the defensive.
The conventional sounds, coupled with the unconventional with a smooth grace, the music of Om Shanti Om , is variety personified.
Dard-e-Disco: This scorching number has Sukhwinder Singh crooning the lyrics penned by Javed Akhtar. The track has recently hit the screens and is making waves owing to the new chiselled avatar of Shahrukh Khan.
The song per se, as far as the lyrics go, is average since it strikes you as nonsensical at times. The track redeems itself with the power-packed vocals and a foot-tapping score.
Though the song is an instant chartbuster, it will not qualify as a discerning music-lover’s delight. Visually speaking, watching King Khan emerging out, with water streaming down his perfect, much talked about six-pack abs leaves you gasping for more.
One can spend hours waxing eloquent about this visual treat, which comes to you courtesy Farah Khan.
Ajab Si: The clincher for the album grows on you. It has the immensely talented Kay Kay lending his golden voice to this composition, which can be best described as unconventional.
The song is a perfect amalgamation of mellifluous sounds, which render it a sheer ethereal flavour. It’s an irresistible piece of melody that lingers on long after one has heard it.
Dastaan-e-Om Shanti Om: A high voltage track that is set in the mode of dramatic narration has Shaan lending his vocals for it.
The track sounds like a rehashed version of the song Ek Haseena Thi from the classic Rishi Kapoor-starrer Karz. The similarity is too obvious to miss. The composition can be best described as average and purely situational. The orchestration and the rising crescendo of music serve the purpose for the song’s narrative style.
Dhoom Taana: It’s a number that takes you on a trip down the memory lane into the effervescent era of 70’s and early 80’s. Shreya Ghosal and Abhijit successfully lend the track a nostalgic touch, which is the USP of the composition. Dhol and jhankaar beats come together to create this aesthetically appealing score, which will be a praiseworthy chartbuster.
Deewangi Deewangi: The much-awaited song which reportedly boasts of an ensemble cast and an array of stars has Shaan, Udit Narayan, Shreya Ghoshal, Sunidhi Chauhan and Rahul Saxena coming together to create an instant chartbuster. The track has its melody quotient in place and not even once succumbs to a dull moment. The festive spirit of the number is heady and raises expectations for an apt visual representation.
Main Agar Kahoon: It’s a serene and sweet romantic number, which stands apart from the overriding festive feel of the album. The track is reminiscent of old romantic songs sung by the inimitable Rafi. Sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghosal do justice to the composition, which is mellow and strikes a chord within you. The rendition sadly lacks the punch, which might result in it being categorized by some as painfully limp.
Jag Soona Soona Lage: An immensely talented Raahat Fateh Ali Khan croons this number, which is right up his alley. Richa Sharma lends the sufiyana style score, her powerful voice and sets the theme of the song with an alaap in the beginning. Pain of separation forms the backdrop for the novel track.
The album includes various remixes to cater to niche listeners. Dard-e-Disco’s remix version along with Dastaan - The Dark Side Mix and a medley mix of Om Shanti Om will appease those who hanker after party music.
The melodic theme music completes the collage of musical genres which best describes the collection. Vishal and Shekhar surprise you with their creativity which spells sure shot success of Om Shanti Om’s music.

Tareef Yeh Bhi To Sach Hai Kuch Bhi Nahi
Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon..
Shokhiyon Mein Dooobi Yeh Aadayein
Chehre Se Jhalki Hui Hain
Zulf Ki Ghani Ghani Ghatayein
Shaan Se Dhalki Hui Hain
Lehrata Aachal Hai Jaise Badal
Bhaahon Mein Bhari Hai Jaise Chandani
Roop Ki Chandani
Main Agar Kahoon Yeh Dilkashi
Hai Nahi Kahin Na Hogi Kabhi
Tareef Yeh Bhi To Sach Hai Kuch Bhi Nahi
Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon..
Tum Hue Meherbaan
To Hai Yeh Dastan
Hoo Tum Hue Meherbaan
To Hai Yeh Dastan
Abb Tumhara Mera Ek Hai Karwaan
Tum Jahan Mein Wahan
Main Agar Kahoon
Humsafar Meri
Apsara Ho Tum Ya Koi Pari
Tareef Yeh Bhi To Sach Hai Kuch Bhi Nahi
Tumko Paya Hai To Jaise Khoya Hoon..

Dil Ko Banade Jo Patang Saa Se
Yeh Teri Woh Haawaien Hai
Tere Saath Saath Esha
Koi Noor Aaya Hai
Chand Teri Roshni Ka
Halka Sa Ek Saaya Hai
Teri Nazaron Ne Dil Ka Kiya Jo Hasar
Asar Yeh Hua
Abb Inmein Hi Doob Ke Ho Jau Paar
Yehi Hai Dua
( Aankhon Mein Teri
Ajab Si Ajab Si Adayein Hai
Hoo Aankhon Mein Teri
Ajab Si Ajab Si Adayein Hai
Dil Ko Banade Jo Patang Saa Se
Yeh Teri Woh Haawaien Hai )… (2)

Om Shanti Om's Best Kept Secrets Revealed
Did you know, before the final look for Shah Rukh was decided for the first half of the film, he had to try out different hairstyles of the popular heroes of the 70’s era . The list included Amitabh Bachchan, Vinod Khanna, Shashi Kapoor and Rajesh Khanna. And he looked adorable in most of them.
Do you know the secret behind Shah Rukh’s perfect ‘six- pack abs’- well it is sheer hard work! While he was shooting for the song Dard-E- Disco, he had a makeshift gym arranged on the set and would work out in between shots! Now that is what we call - Dedication!
Inspite of a stunt double being on the sets, Shah Rukh insisted on doing his stunts himself. Be it flying in the air, or jumping through fire! All for the love of ‘Om Shanti Om’!
A very heart warming incident happened on the sets, when ‘Mithun Da’ was shooting for a song. As soon as he entered the sets-the entire crew started whistling and clapping. Infact, the craze was so much that he was almost mobbed. Everyone wanted to get a picture clicked with him- And guess who was clicking some of those pictures –King Khan himself! Sooo sweet!
Guess who will be spotted after a hiatus of 4 years-in in this film ?! Well, it is none other than the stunning Karisma Kapoor! She will be shaking a leg with Shah Rukh Khan. In fact she was quite nervous to face the camera after such a long gap. But as usual, she gave a perfect shot- as the crew cheered her on.
There are many ways in which Farah Khan has made the making of ‘Om Shanti Om’ a very special experience for her entire cast and crew. One of them was- when she gifted personalized- T-Shirts to everyone from the spot boys to the Stars of the film. And guess what some of the T-Shirts say, “ You have made it big- Om Shanti Om.” So if you see someone wearing a black and gold T-Shirt like that, you know where it’s from!
In the first schedule of the film- which lasted for over a month, a huge set was put up on Helipad. The Executive producer of the film, Sanjeev Chawla, built a five star lounge -for the entire cast and crew to chill out after a hard day’s work . Now that’s what we call Generous!
Deepika Padukone was recommended by her director Farah Khan, to watch all the super hit films from the 70’s - to help her prepare for her role as a film star of that period. Guess what happens when Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan and Sanjay Dutt - remove their jackets, stand on the bar and dance together !! Whew! Fireworks!!!
That’s exactly what happened when the four hunks were shooting for a dance number in Om Shanti Om! The crowd was going simply berserk! Just the sight of those guys dancing together sent the entire crew , and the crowd in a frenzy!!! The stars were having a ball themselves dancing on the peppy number!! Now this is what we call a hot and happening shoot!!!
Did you know Om Shanti Om will be the first of its kind in which almost the entire crew will be seen playing bits of roles in the film. Including Farah Khan, who supposedly has a very funny sequence with Shah Rukh. Well the list is endless , from the DOP, to the entire Direction team , to the Executive Producer, to the Hair dressers, to the Art director and hold your breadth Spot Boys as well…they are all there!! Can just about imagine the fun on the sets!

Cool Retro Music in Om Shanti Om : Review
Farah Khan loves the seventies! If the choreographer-turned-director's debut Main Hoon Naa saw her parody the swinging era, her latest Om Shanti Om, too, time travels all the way from 2007 to 1977 to explore her favourite decade in its hey day.
A full-blown musical set within the film industry and involving a reincarnation theme, Om Shanti Om, with its clever title and chromatic glory promises to be quite the cracker this Diwali.
While Shah Rukh Khan leads the brat pack, Arjun Rampal and Shreyas Talpade also star in this November 9 release (Yup, same day as Sanjay Leela Bhansali's grand opus Saawariya), which introduces model-turned-actress, Deepika Padukone on the big screen.
The bright, young duo of Vishal-Shekhar whip up an eclectic soundtrack against Javed Akhtar's imaginative penmanship, which is both nifty and retro. It might not be path breaking stuff but it's still really good. Instead of relying on old tunes and stretching their lingering memory, the pair formulates fresh sounds that are inspiring and lilting.
The album begins with the melting Ajab Si in KK's silvery voice about an awe-struck, starry-eyed romantic oozing poetry, penned impressively by Vishal, for his stunning lady love. The sheer velvety quality of its notes and smooth arrangement is akin to the melodious magic of Jhankaar Beats' Suno Na.
On screen, SRK shows off his brilliantly-sculpted six pack and shirtless avatar, while behind the scenes Sukhwinder Singh brings the studio down with his red-hot rendition of Dard-e-Disco. Despite its snazzy middle eastern influences, Vishal-Shekhar maintain a moderate percussion, leaving ample breathing space for the singer to spread his vocal wings. DJ Aqueel's zingy remix of Disco is high on zing and bound to enjoy a long run at clubs and discotheques.
The opening zig-zag strain tarrying all through the track is super catchy and adds bounce and attitude to the bubbly Deewangi Deewangi. The song pays a tribute to Naseeb's John Jaani Janardan what with practically half of Bollywood, from Dharmendra to Karisma Kapoor, making a special appearance.
That it has a tang 'rainbow' remix, goes without saying. Like the name suggests, the techno-washed version is loaded with colourful beats and infectious verve. Ditto for Om Shanti Om medley mix, which features bits and pieces from the entire album.
Main Agar Kahoon is a full-fledged piano number laced in fairy-tale romance, which works as the central theme of Om Shanti Om. Sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghosal are appropriately sweetness-personified in this music-box track.
Taking a break from the vibrant mood of the album so far, Jag Soona Soona Laga charges on the unprepared listener's senses with its heartbreaking starkness and haunting melody. Richa Sharma's Punjabi delivery coupled with Rahat Fateh Ali Khan's ardent cry ensures Jag Soona will find a place in a compilation of Javed Akhtar's sad ditties.
The flamboyant memories of Laxmikant-Pyarelal and R D Burman's 1970s are brought back in Dhoom Taana variating from daflis and drums to rock 'n' roll. While watching Shah Rukh and Deepika mock Teesri Manzil, Humjoli or Himmatwala, sounds like fun on celluloid, this one's not so much of a Dhoom on stereo.
Daastan-e-Om Shanti Om with its dramatic effusion and sizzling orchestra (The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra) recounts a reborn man's bitter saga of love and betrayal. Heavily influenced by Karz's immortal Ek Haseena Thi, sans the iconic guitar play though, in narrative and format, Dastaan is rocking in its own right.
Though Shaan's rendering might not be 'tough guy' stuff, he conveys the angst of his protagonist only too well. Sadly, the Dark Side mix by Zoheb, Nikhil Chinapa and DJ Naweb with all it's electronic tinkering is not a patch on the theatrical original.
Finally, Om Shanti Om is an out and out musical that captivates with its roaring polyphony and unabashed drama.

The Music of Om Shanti Om is all set to conquer charts and stay there
Producer /Banner : Red Chillies Entertainment
Director : Farah Khan
Music : Vishal & Shekhar
Lyrics : Javed Akhtar , Kumar (Punjabi) and Vishal
Vocals :Abhijit, Caralisa, K.K, Marianne, Nisha, Rahul Saxena, Shaan, Shreya Ghoshal, Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Sukhwinder Singh and Udit Narayan
Label : T-Series
Just few years back, we reviewed the audio album of ‘Main Hoon Na’, that had the same team of Shah Rukh Khan, Farah Khan and Javed Akhtar. But are we missing someone here? Oh yes, the chart conquering composer of the 2004 album, Anu Malik is not associated with the 2007 album, ‘Om Shanti Om’. Given the fact that Anu is out of form and circulation, the decision of picking Vishal & Shekhar on their current form seems to be correct. How correct, we will know shortly.
Farah Khan’s 35-crore bonanza, ‘Om Shanti Om’, based mainly in the psychedelic 70s, kick starts with the absolutely mesmerizing, petal-soft, romantic track ‘Ajab Si’. Right from the first notes, the soft beats and caressing guitar strings set just the right pace for K. K. to take over. The lyrics by (no its not Javed Akhtar) by Vishal (what a pleasant surprise!) are simple and superb - “Aankhon mein teri, Ajab si ajab si adaayen hain, Dil ko bana de jo patang, Saansein ye teri who hawaayein hain.” The arrangements by Vishal & Shekhar and K.K.’s superb rendition gel perfectly.
Next up, we run into the ‘6-pack’ (SRK) song, ‘Dard-E-Disco’. The Arabic styled composition is more in the qawwali mold rather than in the disco alley! Once again, the lyrics (this time by Javed Akhtar) are the first thing that grab attention - “Woh haseena woh neelam pari, Kar gayee kaisi jadoogari, Neend in aankhon se cheen li hai, Dil mein bechainiyan hai bhari.” The lyrics couldn’t have been more perfect and Sukhwinder takes over, and is in top form! His voice modulation floats in perfect unison with the music and the lyrics, changing pace and pitch as per the mood and requirement. The background (Arabic style) vocals and crooning enhance the composition further. In a nutshell, ‘Dard-E-Disco’ takes us back to the early 70s, and we are reminded of countless Pran enacted qawwalis, with ‘Dard-E-Disco’ (in the lyrics) adding a touch of humour. As we have already mentioned at the start, the arrangements are more in the qawwali mold with slight touches of disco beats.
‘Dard-E-Disco (Remix)’, by DJ Aqeel has all the right ingredients needed for a good rehash and will serve its purpose of burning the dance floors of the pubs and the discos with its heightened pace. A nice effort.
Moving on, we reach ‘Dhoom Taana’ and the duff, anklet, woodwind and other traditional percussion instruments remind one of ‘Sargam’ days of melody and dance (Rishi Kapoor and Jaya Prada). The arrangements, lyrics and settings are based in not just 70s but early 80s. There are also a few jazz snatches (maybe a Shammi Kapoor touch). While Abhijeet is the perfect choice with his flawless rendition, Shreya gets high pitched in a few parts. This is the song that has been composed by the legendary composer, Pyarelal (of ‘Laxmi-Pyare’ fame) the song will look and sound better on screen.
Jaltarang and piano combine magically, followed by bead sounds, accompanying Sonu Nigam’s silken smooth, Rafi like rendition. Yes, we have now reached ‘Main Agar Kahoon’. Javed Akhtar’s lyrics combined with Sonu’s extraordinary singing create an almost bewitching romantic duet (with an in form Shreya). The two stars of the outstanding ‘Main Agar Kahoon’ are Javed Akhtar’s lyrics and Sonu Nigam’s singing. Right now, we cannot bring in Sonu but here are some of Javed Sahab’s lyrics – “Tumko paya hai to jaise khoya hoon, Kahna chahoon bhi to tumse kya kahoon, Kisi zabaan mein bhi, Woh lafz hee nahin, Ki jinme tum ho kya tumhein bata sakoon , Main agar kahoon, Tumsa haseen, Kaynaat mein nahin hai kahin.” A nostalgic throwback to the golden era of late Mohammad Rafi-Roshan days! The number concludes with the ‘Om Shanti Om’ theme music.
‘Dastan-E-Om Shanti Om’ can well be summed up as one of the most important (if not the most) tracks of ‘Om Shanti Om’. It sums up the entire central theme of reincarnation and betrayal. The track commences with sonorous opera like singing, followed by a big live orchestra sounds from 40 plus violins, percussion instruments ranging from tabla and dhol to santoor and heavy piano pieces and the impact leaves one awestruck. Shaan soon commences in a rather base and matter-of-fact voice “Sunne waalon, Suno aisa bhi hota hai, Koi jitna hanse, Utna hi rota hai, Deewani hoke haseena, Khayee kya dhoke haseena, Aao tum bhi aaj sun lo, Dastan hain ye ki us masoom haseena ne jise chaha, Woh tha andar se harjaee, Sangdil se dil laga ke bewafa ke haath aa ke us ne ek din maut hi payee, Ek Sitam ka fasana hai jis ko sabhi, Kehte hain Om Shanti Om.” For the fans of ‘Ek Haseena Thi’ (’Karz’) this one tries to recapture the spirit of the legendary song. With a somewhat different approach and kudos to the team of Vishal & Shekhar, Javed Akhtar and the orchestra, it succeeds in a big way, despite the big legacy it had to live up to. Shaan’s singing, to some stunning situational lyrics and the big orchestra sounds are guaranteed to make ‘Dastan-E-Om Shanti Om’ one of the highlighted tracks of the film.
‘Dastaan (The Dark Side Mix)’, by Zoheb, DJ Nikhil Chinappa and DJ Naved commences on a faster tempo. The version loses some of its suspense and edge-of-the seat element due to too much audio interference.
Richa Sharma, the queen of Punjabi folk singing, commences the heart touching, ‘Jag Soona Soona Lage’, with a ‘heer’ style singing. She deserves a perfect ten for her flawless rendition. The OSO theme music has been used to superb effect with Kumaar’s Punjabi lyrics. Then its Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, who after ‘Laagi Man Ki Lagan’ (’Paap’), ‘Bol Na Halke Halke’ (’Jhoom Barabar Jhoom’) and ‘Main Jahan Bhi Rahoon’ (’Namastey London’), has truly inherited the legacy of his illustrious uncle, the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. But let us not deviate from the superbly composed, as well as rendered composition. V-S deserve all the praise for a number that is just perfect in all departments. Be it, at times soft and at times harsh musical arrangements (in form of plates and guitars), Rahat’s brilliant performance and last but not the least, Javed Sahab’s heart-wrenching lyrics in simple Hindi and Urdu. “Roothi roothi saari raatein, Pheeke Pheeke saare din, Veerani see veerani hai, Tanhaai see tanhaai hai, Aur ek hum hain pyaar ke bin, Har pal chin.”
Is ‘Deewangi Deewangi’ the highlighted song featuring almost the who’s who of Bollywood? All seems to point to it. In a way, this one is also the theme track as the fun gaiety, party song goes ” Aqlo hosh na mee danum” (which is in Persian and means “I know not what is wisdom and sense”), Hum hain dil aur janam, Bas dewangi deewangi dewaangi hai”. The chorus also chants, “All the hot girls put your hands up and say Om Shanti Om. All the cool boys c’mon make some noise and say Om Shanti Om”. The trade mark OSO tune is also present in its grandeur. Definitely a scorcher of a track, which gets turbo charged by talented singers like Shaan, Udit Narayan, Rahul Saxena, Shreya and Sunidhi. The track concludes with the orchestra going full blast with the OSO tune.
‘Deewangi (Rainbow mix)’ by DJ Kiran and DJ G is a nice piece of work. The already pacy all-star cast song has a more hectic pace than the original. The vocals have not been violated much, only the musical arrangements change to give it a good effect.
The ‘Om Shanti Om’ theme music (programmed by Abhijit Nalani) has Pyarelal written all over it. It is a superb piece, played brilliantly on piano. It starts with a slow pace, picks up and finally concludes on a slow note, but it is enough to leave a mark on the listener.
The ‘Om Shanti Om (medley mix)’ by Jackie V. is an assortment of a few songs (remixed superbly) featured in the album. The snatches of ‘Dhoom Tana’, ‘Dard-E-Disco’, and ‘Deewangi Deewangi’ can be relished once again through this version.
To sum it up, the Pyarelal touch looms large on the audio of ‘Om Shanti Om’. It is truly a complete 70 mm (a prestigious 70s & 80s term) album experience.
It’s a path-breaking work by Vishal & Shekhar, who break the myth about them being only rockish kind of composers, as they take on a melodious yatra from the early 70s to the present day.
If one is a fan of the melodious (non-synthesized) Bollywood era and even if one is not aware of it, it’s a must buy for all those who call themselves lovers of Bollywood.
Its melody and poetry.
If the initial response to the audio is any indication, ‘Om Shanti Om’ is all set to conquer the charts and stay there for a while.
Rating: 8.5/10
Abid, BollyVista
Director : Farah Khan
Music : Vishal & Shekhar
Lyrics : Javed Akhtar , Kumar (Punjabi) and Vishal
Vocals :Abhijit, Caralisa, K.K, Marianne, Nisha, Rahul Saxena, Shaan, Shreya Ghoshal, Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Sukhwinder Singh and Udit Narayan
Label : T-Series
Just few years back, we reviewed the audio album of ‘Main Hoon Na’, that had the same team of Shah Rukh Khan, Farah Khan and Javed Akhtar. But are we missing someone here? Oh yes, the chart conquering composer of the 2004 album, Anu Malik is not associated with the 2007 album, ‘Om Shanti Om’. Given the fact that Anu is out of form and circulation, the decision of picking Vishal & Shekhar on their current form seems to be correct. How correct, we will know shortly.
Farah Khan’s 35-crore bonanza, ‘Om Shanti Om’, based mainly in the psychedelic 70s, kick starts with the absolutely mesmerizing, petal-soft, romantic track ‘Ajab Si’. Right from the first notes, the soft beats and caressing guitar strings set just the right pace for K. K. to take over. The lyrics by (no its not Javed Akhtar) by Vishal (what a pleasant surprise!) are simple and superb - “Aankhon mein teri, Ajab si ajab si adaayen hain, Dil ko bana de jo patang, Saansein ye teri who hawaayein hain.” The arrangements by Vishal & Shekhar and K.K.’s superb rendition gel perfectly.
Next up, we run into the ‘6-pack’ (SRK) song, ‘Dard-E-Disco’. The Arabic styled composition is more in the qawwali mold rather than in the disco alley! Once again, the lyrics (this time by Javed Akhtar) are the first thing that grab attention - “Woh haseena woh neelam pari, Kar gayee kaisi jadoogari, Neend in aankhon se cheen li hai, Dil mein bechainiyan hai bhari.” The lyrics couldn’t have been more perfect and Sukhwinder takes over, and is in top form! His voice modulation floats in perfect unison with the music and the lyrics, changing pace and pitch as per the mood and requirement. The background (Arabic style) vocals and crooning enhance the composition further. In a nutshell, ‘Dard-E-Disco’ takes us back to the early 70s, and we are reminded of countless Pran enacted qawwalis, with ‘Dard-E-Disco’ (in the lyrics) adding a touch of humour. As we have already mentioned at the start, the arrangements are more in the qawwali mold with slight touches of disco beats.
‘Dard-E-Disco (Remix)’, by DJ Aqeel has all the right ingredients needed for a good rehash and will serve its purpose of burning the dance floors of the pubs and the discos with its heightened pace. A nice effort.
Moving on, we reach ‘Dhoom Taana’ and the duff, anklet, woodwind and other traditional percussion instruments remind one of ‘Sargam’ days of melody and dance (Rishi Kapoor and Jaya Prada). The arrangements, lyrics and settings are based in not just 70s but early 80s. There are also a few jazz snatches (maybe a Shammi Kapoor touch). While Abhijeet is the perfect choice with his flawless rendition, Shreya gets high pitched in a few parts. This is the song that has been composed by the legendary composer, Pyarelal (of ‘Laxmi-Pyare’ fame) the song will look and sound better on screen.
Jaltarang and piano combine magically, followed by bead sounds, accompanying Sonu Nigam’s silken smooth, Rafi like rendition. Yes, we have now reached ‘Main Agar Kahoon’. Javed Akhtar’s lyrics combined with Sonu’s extraordinary singing create an almost bewitching romantic duet (with an in form Shreya). The two stars of the outstanding ‘Main Agar Kahoon’ are Javed Akhtar’s lyrics and Sonu Nigam’s singing. Right now, we cannot bring in Sonu but here are some of Javed Sahab’s lyrics – “Tumko paya hai to jaise khoya hoon, Kahna chahoon bhi to tumse kya kahoon, Kisi zabaan mein bhi, Woh lafz hee nahin, Ki jinme tum ho kya tumhein bata sakoon , Main agar kahoon, Tumsa haseen, Kaynaat mein nahin hai kahin.” A nostalgic throwback to the golden era of late Mohammad Rafi-Roshan days! The number concludes with the ‘Om Shanti Om’ theme music.
‘Dastan-E-Om Shanti Om’ can well be summed up as one of the most important (if not the most) tracks of ‘Om Shanti Om’. It sums up the entire central theme of reincarnation and betrayal. The track commences with sonorous opera like singing, followed by a big live orchestra sounds from 40 plus violins, percussion instruments ranging from tabla and dhol to santoor and heavy piano pieces and the impact leaves one awestruck. Shaan soon commences in a rather base and matter-of-fact voice “Sunne waalon, Suno aisa bhi hota hai, Koi jitna hanse, Utna hi rota hai, Deewani hoke haseena, Khayee kya dhoke haseena, Aao tum bhi aaj sun lo, Dastan hain ye ki us masoom haseena ne jise chaha, Woh tha andar se harjaee, Sangdil se dil laga ke bewafa ke haath aa ke us ne ek din maut hi payee, Ek Sitam ka fasana hai jis ko sabhi, Kehte hain Om Shanti Om.” For the fans of ‘Ek Haseena Thi’ (’Karz’) this one tries to recapture the spirit of the legendary song. With a somewhat different approach and kudos to the team of Vishal & Shekhar, Javed Akhtar and the orchestra, it succeeds in a big way, despite the big legacy it had to live up to. Shaan’s singing, to some stunning situational lyrics and the big orchestra sounds are guaranteed to make ‘Dastan-E-Om Shanti Om’ one of the highlighted tracks of the film.
‘Dastaan (The Dark Side Mix)’, by Zoheb, DJ Nikhil Chinappa and DJ Naved commences on a faster tempo. The version loses some of its suspense and edge-of-the seat element due to too much audio interference.
Richa Sharma, the queen of Punjabi folk singing, commences the heart touching, ‘Jag Soona Soona Lage’, with a ‘heer’ style singing. She deserves a perfect ten for her flawless rendition. The OSO theme music has been used to superb effect with Kumaar’s Punjabi lyrics. Then its Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, who after ‘Laagi Man Ki Lagan’ (’Paap’), ‘Bol Na Halke Halke’ (’Jhoom Barabar Jhoom’) and ‘Main Jahan Bhi Rahoon’ (’Namastey London’), has truly inherited the legacy of his illustrious uncle, the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

SRK, Farah grandly release the Music of Om Shanti Om
The music of Shah Rukh Khan's much awaited movie Om Shanti Om was released officially today, in the presence of the cast and crew of the film.
Music directors Vishal and Shekhar have composed the songs of the film, while lyrics of most songs have been penned by Javed Akhtar, music director Vishal has also written lyrics for the song Ajab Si, which is currently on air.
"We have never worked on such a large scale for the music of any film, with so many musicians and singers," said Vishal at the launch.
Commenting on the music, actor and producer Shah Rukh Khan said, "There is a lot of variety in the songs. Since the first half is based in the 1970's era, we even requested Pyarelalji do the arrangements for a song."
A live orchestra of 140 music pieces was arranged for the song Dhoom Tana.
Commenting on Vishal and Shekhar's work Farah Khan said, "The music is very different from what Vishal and Shekar's previous movies' songs. The songs of Om Shanti Om are experimental but at the same time very commercial."
While one of the songs in the film has almost 36 film stars in it, another song Dard-E-Disco has Shah Rukh Khan flaunting his six pack abs for which he worked rigorously for three months. "Farah was always keen to shoot a topless song with me, she even made me wear a vest in the Kaal song," joked Khan.
Farah added, "Dard-E-Disco was the last song choreographed by me, so I pleaded Shah Rukh to do a topless song for me. Now, as a choreographer I will only take up international projects or my own films. Besides this I will not choreograph anymore... not for Karan Johar, Shirish (her husband) or Sajid (her brother)."

An Exclusive Interview With SRK & Deepika in Dubai
Interview With Shahrukh Khan
'I'm an emotional chameleon,' Shah Rukh Khan
'I'm an emotional chameleon,' Shah Rukh Khan
When Shah Rukh Khan came to Dubai 18 months ago as global brand ambassador of an Indian bank, he had looked tired. Good, but still tired — a superstar moving invariably towards middle age.
Now he seems to have turned the clock back.
Fresh-faced, long-haired, his white shirt open a few more buttons than usual, he looked relaxed and happy. And fit.
This new look — complete with a six-pack — he attributes to his next film, Om Shanti Om. A film where he says he plays "a young, brash, cool, dude-y superstar, the kind of man who has long hair and rides a Harley or a Ferrari".
In Dubai on Saturday night for the launch of the film's music album, the re-invented Khan spoke about his new film, new look and new, very young, heroine.
Excerpts from an interview:
What different things can we expect from Om Shanti Om, considering it's a Farah Khan and Red Chillies production?
I remember every time I did a movie — Don, Swades, Chak De — people said is this going to be different? I've heard a lot of young people say 'my film is off the beaten path, zara hathke'. But I'm not going to say that.
You will have the same six songs. You will have the same hero whom you've been watching, hopefully, for the last 16 years. But I have a six pack and never had that before [laughs]!
We will be telling a story that you may have heard before. My mother told me the same story for the last 15 years of her life. But I wanted to hear it every night because she'd say it differently.
That's what we do in films. I've done romances, revenge dramas, mean films, action films. But every time we've tried to tell it differently, do it differently. Shoot it differently.
It's not rocket science. The story [of Om Shanti Om] will not blow your mind. It's about reincarnation, one continuous story that moves from the Seventies to 2007.
Do you believe in reincarnation?
No I don't. But that's what we do — deal in the unreal. Films ARE larger than life. Even when I do a film based on real life like Asoka or Chak De, it's still exaggerated. I've heard people say, 'oh, that film's not real'. But which film is?
Where do you see people sing songs? When in life do you have background music that's perfectly in sync with your emotions?
Deepika, your heroine in the film, is half your age. How did it feel romancing her?
It did feel odd in the beginning. Even with Priyanka [Chopra, his co-star in Don], I'd felt a bit odd. I'd tried explaining to her a scene I had done earlier and then realised she was a child when she saw that movie!
In Dilwale [Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge], where I worked with Kajol, there's this scene where I'm concentrating hard as she walks away, saying she'll turn back if she loves me. There was this similar scene with Deepika. I talked about that scene in Dilwale with her. That's when I realised Deepika was only eight or nine when she saw that movie!
Of course, it feels a little odd to say I love you to someone so much younger. But then, she's taller than me [laughs], very educated, very confident. You get used to the role.
You've been experimenting with your looks in recent films. Do you enjoy doing so?
I do it only if the role demands it. But I'm an emotional chameleon. I don't need to LOOK different to BE different. I can talk differently, walk differently for the role.
A lot of people said I looked old in Kank (Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna). That's how I wanted to look. I have these wrinkles around my eyes [points at them], I wanted them to look more prominent. I was this cynical, tired man with a 9-year-old son. Why should I look young? I grew a beard too but Karan [Johar, the director] wanted it off, so no beard.
For Chak De, I had another look altogether. I was quiet, I was strong. I walked differently. When I walked into a room, everyone knew that it was Kabir Khan, the man in control.
I'm a nuance-based actor. Sometimes I tend to do too much. This time I wanted to do a quiet role. Kabir Khan is an emotional yet strangely macho man. Some people asked me, 'Are you trying to be a Naseeruddin Shah or an Om Puri?'. Absolutely not!
I'm not insecure about anyone else. I enjoy life. I'm insecure about myself. I compete with my last film.
I've said this again and again, I'm like a race horse with blinkers on. With every film I try and cross a barrier — an emotional or physical barrier — that I have set myself.
Okay, so what about your new look in Om Shanti Om?
In Om Shanti Om I play this young, brash, cool, dude-y superstar. He's rich, spoilt. He expects everything to go his way. So I grew my hair, like John Abraham or Zayed Khan. I worked on a six-pack. I took off my shirt!
I play both this man in the Seventies and his reincarnation in 2007. And Farah kept laughing at me, saying the Seventies suited me just fine.
You have a birthday coming up [November 2]. Any fears about growing old?
No, none. I enjoy life. For my next film I want to do something totally demented. I want to jump down from 10 storeys.
Music to our ears
Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, the two stars of Om Shanti Om, released the music album of the Farah Khan film at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel on Saturday, nearly two months ahead of the film's scheduled release.
It was a T-Series and Viva Entertainment event. For the first time, a Hindi film's music will be available for full download on mobile handsets, courtesy Hungama Mobile. In the UAE, ring back tones are available.
"Music is intrinsic to any film, whether as a soundtrack or songs," Khan said. "Our films are all musicals. The music album gives you the first taste of the film."
Vishal-Shekhar's music for Om Shanti Om has "a great modern sound," he said. "Their music is very right here, right now."
On another note, Khan dismissed all rumours of rivalry between him and the Bachchans. "I can't call Mr Bachchan a friend because he is so senior, but Abhishek is a friend," he said.
He also disclosed the secret of his energy. "I have no other big pleasures or distractions in life, except films. Everything else is peripheral to my core job of working 10-12 hours a day, hoping to get just one expression right. I'm still very excited about this," he said.
'Madhuri's always there'
Madhuri Dixit, once Hindi filmdom's number one heroine, returns to the screen later this year. This is what Shah Rukh Khan, her co-star in several films including the memorable Dil To Pagal Hai, said about the actress: "A superstar like Madhuri is always in our hearts, in our minds. Yes, she felt she needed time to get married, have children, lose weight. Now she's back.
"I met her about seven months ago when I was shooting Chak De, and we spent a long time together. I didn't even feel she'd gone anywhere."
Interview with Deepika Padukone
'There is only one Shah Rukh,' Deepika Padukone
'There is only one Shah Rukh,' Deepika Padukone
The first-floor corridor of Jumeirah Beach Hotel's conference centre is knee-deep in reporters, TV and radio crew.
Downstairs in the ballroom, the invited guests are beginning to gather for the music launch of Om Shanti Om. Upstairs, we are waiting for Shah Rukh Khan, who has to face us before he faces his crowd of fans.
Would we like to interview Deepika Padukone while we wait for King Khan, we're asked politely. Of course, we chorus.
I'm ushered into a smaller room. There sits Deepika, glorious in a scarlet Anarkali-style Tarun Tahiliani churidar-kurta. Her skin glows, dusky cheek bones blushing pink. Her hair is faultless, her smile dazzling. I can understand exactly why Farah Khan is reportedly gushing about her new find.
Deepika is not new to fame, although Om Shanti Om is her first Hindi film. The daughter of badminton ace Prakash Padukone has been a successful model for several years. Now she makes her Bollywood debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan, under the direction of Farah Khan.
Enviable, by any standards. But that doesn't seem to have turned her head. She speaks little — but is still refreshingly candid.
Excerpts from a quick chat:
You're being hailed as the freshest new face in Bollywood in years. How does that feel?
It's nice to get compliments. It means there's a lot of hard work to be done and plenty of living up to expectations.
How did Om Shanti Om happen?
Farah [Khan, the director] had seen a couple of my television commercials. She called me up and said she wants to meet me. When we met, she said she'd like to cast me in her film.
Your reaction?
I didn't react. I just smiled and said 'thank you'. But inside, my heart was dancing. Even now, when I sit down with my family, it's very difficult for me to explain exactly what I felt. It was so very special.
Were you in awe of Shah Rukh Khan?
Shah Rukh has been very, very supportive. We met before we started shooting and he was very humble. We spoke about our personal lives and we got to a great comfort level. He used to discuss the scenes before we shot them and give me ideas.
Farah called me home as well. They all looked after me very well. I didn't feel like a newcomer, they all made me so welcome.
What was your favourite moment during the shooting?
Actually, it wasn't even a scene. One day, I had fever but I went in for the shoot anyway. Shah Rukh was a couple of steps away during the scene and suddenly he put everyone on hold. 'One second, I think she has fever,' he said. He took me to my van and scolded me. 'How can you come to shoot with fever? This is your film, you decide when you want to shoot'.
He got me medicines, made me have them, and left only when the fever came down.
So, very good memories of SRK then…
I truly grew up watching Shah Rukh's films. Yes there's Mr Bachchan, Devsaab, Dilipsaab [Amitabh Bachchan, Dev Anand and Dilip Kumar, all legendary actors]. But for our generation it's Shah Rukh. There's only one Shah Rukh.
Then acting with him is like a dream come true?
Absolutely. And I'm still living that dream. Haven't woken up yet.

Music company T-Series, which holds the music rights of the film directed by Farah Khan, will facilitate the service through its mobile content partner Hungama Mobile.
T-Series will simultaneously launch the music on CDs on the 18th of September.
The announcement will be made in Dubai over the weekend, followed by an announcement in India early next week. T-Series confirmed the development.
“It is true that the music of Om Shanti Om will be released across platforms,” Bhushan Kumar, chairman & managing director of T-Series told Business Standard.
Apart from tie-ups with all the leading telecom service providers in India, Hungama has partnered with several service providers across countries where the music will be made available.
Some of the carriers are UAE-based telecom service providers Du and ETISALAT, UK-based Vodafone, European mobile phone network provider O2, Singapore’s Singtel and US-based Verizon.
Hungama already has tie-ups with around 150 telecom service provider worldwide.
Neeraj Roy, CEO of Hungama Mobile said, “Our aim is to release the music across digital formats globally. Since Om Shanti Om is a much-awaited film starring Shah Rukh Khan, the music will have a massive appeal even overseas.” He added that the price points for music download on handsets will be in line with the respective markets.
For instance, download per song will cost 2-3 dhirams in UAE, while it will cost 1.99 pounds on the O2 network. The downloading price in India is around Rs 25 a song, with additional download costs on mobile handsets.
The additional cost is usually 10 paise per 10 kilobytes and the average size of each song is 500 kilobytes. However, itunes will cost 99 cents.
The pricing for internet downloads varies, as the user can either download the entire album or a few songs.
T-Series and Hungama were the first to introduce fully downloadable songs in India for the mobile handset. This was done for Hrithik Roshan starrer, Krrish. However, Hutch was the only service provider back then.
The mobile music market in India consists of ringback tones, polyphonic tones, truetones, fulltrack downloads and caller ID tunes. It is estimated to be 60 per cent of all digital sales in the world for the next two years, according to PricewaterhouseCooper report.
