“tomorrow , when the war began” was written and directed by stuart beattie , from a best - selling novel by john marsden . beattie is a veteran writer of big budget studio junk like the original “ pirates of the caribbean , ” “ australia ” and “ g . i . joe : rise of cobra , ” but he was also responsible for michael mann ‘s moody thriller “ collateral , ” and thankfully there’s more of the latter in “tomorrow , when the war began” than any of his more blockbuster fare . there are a number of tightly knotted suspense pieces in “tomorrow , when the war began , ” in particular a breathless moment where the group is hiding from a helicopter , and the climactic act of resistance , where our protagonists plot to blow up a crucial bridge .

when i wrote tomorrow , when the war began in 1992 , it was partly from a conscious desire to revive adventure stories for young people . increasing urbanisation had seen the gradual disappearance of ripping yarns and bush tales . i wanted to marry them with the new teenage genres , where feelings , relationships and character development were all - important .

tomorrow , when the war began has been described as a ‘phobic’ narrative because there is a long history in australia of the perceived fear of invasion from the asian north . australia was involved in a war on vietnam from 1965 - 72 because of what was seen as a threat to australian shores . there was an epithet , ‘the yellow peril’ which was used to characterise the perceived threat .
sydney - - australia may finally have a homegrown blockbuster on its hands with the terrifically engaging
tomorrow , when the war began ,
an action - packed war film for and about teenagers . based on the first in a series of best - selling novels by aussie john marsden , about a band of teens forged into guerilla warriors after a military invasion of australia , this charged adaptation is going after the lucrative
twilight
demographic with both guns blazing .
it followed a blow to the nsw film industry earlier this month , when movie makers pulled out of plans to shoot the superhero movie the green lantern in sydney .
tomorrow when the war began is based on the novel of the same name ( the first in a series of seven ) by australian writer , john marsden ( 1993 ) . the narrative focuses on the ’flight or fight’ responses of eight teenagers from diverse backgrounds , who collectively wage a guerrilla war of resistance against an invading foreign power in their fictional hometown of wirrawee where a beach head for the mass invasion is being established . the film invites the viewer to think about the moral choices that are made in times of war and crisis as well as the ways in which heroism might be defined .

i mention this because tomorrow , when the war began , stuart beattie’s adaptation of john marsden’s immensely popular teen - fiction franchise , is an authentically australian production on paper , but a thoroughly hollywood blockbuster at heart . tomorrow works so hard to affect the look and feel of a typical hollywood action film that it even manages to replicate the utter mediocrity of any given real one ; i suspect the highest compliment i could pay its producers would be to suggest that , regional accents and insubstantial stateside distribution notwithstanding , the film is virtually indistinguishable from any of its forgettable american counterparts .
tomorrow , when the war began follows the journey of eight high school friends in a remote country town whose lives are suddenly and violently upended by a war that no - one saw coming . cut off from their families and their friends , these eight extraordinary teenagers must somehow learn to escape , survive and fight back . based on john marsden’s popular and critically - acclaimed novel .

and so last week i was at this mammoth used bookstore and lo and behold , i came across tomorrow when the war began . i scooped it up , began reading later that night and was immediately enthralled . so enthralled that i brought the book with me to go see my parents…and pissed off my dad because i was being antisocial and reading instead of talking to them . whatever , dad !

well , there is no sex in this book ( though it’s getting there , wink wink ) but that didn’t matter . tomorrow when the war began is gripping and thrilling adventure that’s rooted so deep in the teen experience . it’s as realistic as they come with characters you’ll love . this book is just so full of win .

last year , the remake of the action popcorn cult hit red dawn hit theatres , and was disappointing to say the least . the idea of a teen militia fighting an enemy is nothing new , but when it ' s done right , you can pull off a well crafted film with a cast that can actually act . although the red dawn remake was disappointing , i found it to be a decent film with mindless entertainment value . however with that being said , it was a highly forgettable film . tomorrow when the war began on the other hand is a similar film , but it is a better executed movie that has a good cast and a better plot . the film is packed with action and drama and it is a standout film that is sure to please viewers that were let down by the red dawn remake . this film has a better cast and a much better script , which makes this a necessity to watch for viewers looking for the perfect entertainment . the film is not perfect , but for the most part , it more than delivers its fair share of thrills . plus on the other hand , the film is well structured with good characters and a very good plot , better than the red dawn remake anyway . i really enjoyed the film , and thought it was a well crafted picture worth checking out . if you love these types of films , don ' t hesitate to seek this one out , you ' ll be glad you did . the film could have used a bit more polishing in some areas , but for the most part ; it succeeds at being a good film that will highly entertain you from start to finish .
this dramatic adventure series tells the story of a group of teenagers who are separated from their families following an invasion of their country , a conflict they never saw coming . the dilemmas faced by these characters are important and compelling . in a time of rapidly changing world events , the themes of tomorrow , when the war began have never been more relevant .
synopsis tomorrow , when the war began follows the journey of eight high school friends in a coastal country town whose lives are suddenly and violently upended by an invasion that no one saw coming . cut off from their families and their friends , these eight extraordinary teenagers must learn to escape , survive and fight back against a hostile military force .

though the film wasn’t a hit internationally , it was the highest - grossing domestic film of 2010 , inspiring producers to breathe life back into the project . and a tv series just might be the cost - effective solution to further the stories of those battle - ravaged aussie teenagers .

all that said , “tomorrow , when the war began” is a satisfying slice of young adult cinema , more engaging and enigmatic than the first three “ twilight ” movies and able to produce an air of uniqueness in an overtly familiar , sci - fi - ish scenario . it would probably seem a lot less surprising ( and , yes , there are a few genuinely shocking and violent moments ) if the movie were set anywhere but australia . it’s a country crawling with things that want to bite and sting and shoot poison at you . add in an invading army and things get even wilder and more unhinged . “tomorrow , when the war began” isn’t groundbreaking , but it is fast - paced and genuinely entertaining , and its inherently australian attitude gives it some much - needed edge . vegemite sandwich not included .

unfortunately , the film had a few of these clunky sequences . halfway through , there’s an unsubtle reference to film adaptations . corrie sits reading my brilliant career , and chats with ellie about books being better than their cinematic counterparts . oh gawd . we get it – books are pretty much always better than the film . but if the director had an opinion on this he could have just let us know in a media interview . it just was a big unnecessary punctuation smack in the middle of the film . tomorrow is beattie’s directorial debut , and marsden , having held off from any film adaptations until now , was impressed by beattie’s script , offering only a handful of notes . a surprise really , given how cringe some of the dialogue is .

tomorrow when the war began is a very dramatic movie . it shows the dangers faced by a group of teenagers who return from a camping trip to find their homeland invaded by a foreign power . their loved ones have been captured and imprisoned . although some younger teens might have read the book on which the movie is based , you should be aware that this is definitely a movie for older adolescents and adults . for example , confronting scenes show the teens :
it ' s all fun and games until someone loses a war : camping in the idyllic surrounds of hell .

i stopped in front of the mackenzies ' porch and stood there , trying to find the energy to lift my foot and get off the bike . i stood there for a long time . i knew eventually i ' d have to raise that leg but i didn ' t know when i would be able to do it . finally homer said kindly , ' come on ellie ' , and i was ashamed of my weakness and managed to stumble off the bike and even wheel it into the shed .
homer is ellie ' s go - to guy , her brother - from - another - mother and one of her oldest friends . since ellie ' s our leading lady , it ' s safe to say that homer ' s a pretty important character in tomorrow , when the war began . so let ' s treat him like an onion and peel back some of his layers to really understand who this dude is .
we spoke to molly daniels , who plays leader of the pack ellie , about why teenagers are so obsessed with stories about war , and how it feels when the bully from round the twist ends up playing your dad .

there’s word that there’ll be a film trilogy now , after tomorrow became the third - highest opener in australian cinema ever . despite its flaws , i really liked this film , and i’m excited because it’s a gutsy , action packed piece of australian cinema . it might have suffered a little in page to screen translation , but the most important bit from the book , for me , is the defiant but vulnerable attributes of the characters , and the film has retained these . i got to feel the anticipation , the fear and the ‘what would i do in their place ? ’ all over again . you should still read the books , of course . and if you have read the book , but find yourself not liking the film , at least get a choc - top .
tomorrow when the war began
is the first book in the series known as the

, a series of seven books and a further series known as

hell
( the name given to the destination ) , and while on this camping trip find the way to an area many thought myth , a place well hidden , while camping in this newly found place australia is invaded by an unnamed country , changing their lives forever . the movie does live up to the books , though it is ten years since i last read them , i still choke up at the thought of several of the scenes depicted in the book , and seeing them on the big screen , depicted as well as i could have hoped has left me yearning for the rest of this series to be as well done . i will be purchasing the dvd as soon as it comes out . good work . 10 out of 10 !

' no , it ' s a big problem . none of us knows how we ' ll react when the fan gets hit . i know what it ' s been like for me so far , just doing little things , like waiting in that car in three pigs lane . my teeth were chattering so bad i had to hold my mouth shut to keep them in . i don ' t know how i didn ' t vomit . i was absolutely convinced i was going to die . '
: there ' s only one way to do this . and that ' s to go back to where this all began .
i ' ve just finished watching the world premiere of
tomorrow when the war began
in sydney with my son . we ' ve both read the complete
tomorrow
book series , which we loved - so we went expecting the movie to not live up to the book because movies generally don ' t , do they ? well , we were really pleasantly surprised as this movie is a wonderful adaption . a great cast of
unknowns
become the characters we know and love . they did a fabulous job of capturing the essence of the book with the right balance of action , character development and teenage romance . it really is a fantastic effort and i would be very surprised if this film doesn ' t smash it at the box office . we both wanted to sit there and watch it all over again !

the government was touting yesterday its ability to secure big film projects , with the news that a high - profile bollywood movie would begin shooting in sydney next month .
one wishes it had spared us the remedial theorizing on media culture and artistic representation and license and less apologetically acted the part of a straight - up horror film .
there’s always been a kind of frayed - edged dangerousness to australian cinema , a lawlessness that brought refreshing unpredictability to even the most tired of genres . the wildness that defines australia , with its craggy rock formations and weird - ass creatures , seeps into its movies , to the point that even “ tomorrow , when the war began , ” a fairly shopworn riff on “ red dawn ” ( as filtered through untold modern young adult novels ) , feels more essential and engaging , if only for its earthy australian - ness .
anyway ( smugness alert ) , since that first book i ' ve knocked off another 27 , plus a series of 10 . for the 28 , i ' ve had a total of three film offers . for the tomorrow series / ellie chronicles , i ' ve had about 125 .

every car is a pinto : somewhat justified when they open the gas tank first . on other occasions . . .
despite all this , stasey , as ellie , who narrates the film , carries off her central role compellingly . a pivotal scene later in the film with the sensible and religious robyn ( ashleigh cummings ) was brilliant and shocking . deniz akdeniz , who plays homer , breaks up the tension well , and brings a convincing ease to his role .
“ both the film and the tv series have been very faithful , ” he adds “ there is no deviation in any negative way , which i do find gratifying . ”
before its release , the production company omnilab had talked of the film as the first in a projected trilogy , with the possibility of a tv series to follow . the lack of foreign sales effectively put the kybosh on that plan .

perhaps it’s wrong to compare a film to a choc - top , but i have a reason . i’m not talking about your simple vanilla choc - top – this was a tiramisu choc - top . hovering indecisively at the snack counter , i found myself thinking : ‘how did i not know about this ? and do i really want to try it ? ’ internal tos and fros about packaged desserts aren’t a usual habit of mine , but i mention them because these kinds of thoughts are pretty similar to how i felt about viewing the film adaptation of tomorrow when the war began . so . do i really want small bits of sponge cake in my ice cream ? and do i really want to see that neighbours girl play ellie , literary legend ? no . maybe ? anyway , i somehow found myself in the cinema , marvelling at how those bits of sponge weren’t soggy , but more anxious that i was about to ruin what is still one of my most adored reading experiences with a sub - standard film adaptation .

the longest week is an upcoming comedy - drama film , written and directed by peter glanz . the film stars olivia wilde , jason bateman and billy crudup in the lead roles , the film is being produced by uday chopra , along with neda armian . it is the first project of yash raj film ' s subsidiary hollywood production house yrf entertainment .
. the film is directed by newcomer rs raja for dream zone movies . premgi will also be composing music for this film which will also have powerstar sreenivasan in an important role .
the predominant aim of the film seems to fun and fun only but making fun is also a serious business . but the makers of this film seem to have taken it for granted .
debutante director r . s . raja has tried to present ‘maanga’ as a film with loads of fun and horror elements though the film cannot be fixed under the ‘horror - comedy’ genre . the film also apparently aims to be considered as a science fiction but everything related to the scientific invention of the lead character is presented in a funny way . so one could not be clear whether the intention of such scenes was dealing with science or making us laugh .
i bet even venkat prabhu don ' t have the guts to make film with premji as the lead . i couldn ' t figure out how the producer & director confidently make this film .
r . s . raja is what made a spoof film in an awful way . . ?

but i get your question . the characters of yesteryear cinema breaking into song , the entire song being part of the film’s run - time , these are disappearing . the filmmakers alone aren’t to blame for this . films have become shorter in length . a film album has five - six songs . now how do you integrate five - six songs in a two - hour or a two - hour , fifteen - minute film ? this happens with all my songs . that a really good song has been written , but in the film the second verse has been cut out . this is happening in every film . i don’t know . maybe thirty years from now , the ost format will come into play , where the soundtrack and the film will have their own separate , distinct place .

one of the somewhat troubling trends in songwriting today is that very often two or three lyricists may work on the same film . isn’t it necessary that one songwriter alone should be familiar with the film’s plotline , the screenplay , the characters who he is penning songs for ?
right now the trend of multiple composers and lyricists is very prevalent . consciously people are adapting to it and i have been fighting against it for the last three or four years that “i want to write the entire film , i want to write the entire film . ”

mary kom opened with a decent business on its first day . the film collected 7 . 5 crores on its opening day . the priyanka chopra film has been on of the most anticipated films of the year . being a biopic on the life of mary kom , the film was not expected to make a smashing opening considering it is not regular commercial cinema . the film showed a good response at the multiplexes , although the single screens remained poor over the first day . also since the film was a normal friday release , the week day collections are good . mumbai , up and gujrat circuits . mary kom will surely benefit from the fact that it is a solo release this week and that the tax exemption will prove fruitful for it . compared to other films with female leads , the collections of mary kom are better than queen and heroine although lesser than dirty picture . considering its genre , the film is not expected to have a massive opening weekend collection , yet it will certainly make decent business over the weekend . mary kom has a good screen count of around 3000 screens and the film should certainly make the most of it .
debutantes advaitha and leema are the lead ladies who will be romancing premji in this film . veteran actors thambi ramiah and mano bala form part of the supporting cast .
i want to ask you about the future of the hindi film song . a lot of contemporary directors are almost embarrassed by song sequences and in an effort to introduce a more realistic element either use songs minimally or don’t use them at all . is there a possibility that 30 years from now , we won’t have the hindi film song at all ?
an aggressively unpleasant all - cg rendering of a bestselling japanese manga that may scrape by as a supplement to the canon , but fails on every level as a standalone film .
the horror sequences of the film that starts in the second half also seem to be intended to make us laugh and the intention succeeds in most parts . the sentiment part , especially the flashback sequence shot in black and white tone has really worked out well and it is this aspect that leverages the film to a different level from a comedy no - brainer .
mumbai : a new song from the movie fukrey returns , ishq di fanniyar has released today . the song released is a romantic number from the film and is a beautifully picturised song .

there were five attempts in the early 1980s and 1990s to turn the book into a film . in 1993 , julia roberts was attached to star in a planned caravan pictures adaptation . the project eventually fell apart . in may 2012 , it was reported that mia wasikowska would play robyn davidson in a john curran - directed adaptation . i n august , adam driver was cast as rick smolan . the screenplay was written by marion nelson . finance was sourced from screen australia , the south australian film corporation , adelaide film festival , deluxe australia , pre - sales and canada ' s aver media finance . with a $ 12 million budget , the film began shooting on 8 october 2012 . it was filmed in south australia and the northern territory . julie ryan was a co - producer . tracks was released to dvd and blu - ray on 25 june 2014

mumbai : t - series on wednesday released a single - ' pyaar maanga hai ' , featuring ali fazal and zarine khan . unfortunately , it seems like a frantic effort to get the viewers to enjoy the ‘soft porn’ type video more than listening to the song . the music is exactly the same as the evergreen classic originally composed by bappi lahiri , but the lyrics , intention and the meaning of ‘pyaar’ has clearly changed from love to lust .
hollywood stunt sequences are always top notch and thus bollywood has now hopped on to roping in international stunt directors for their films . to pull off action sequences of high magnitude , majority of film makers today hire international stunt directors . while recently andy armstrong of the amazing spiderman fame was roped in to design the action sequences for hrithik roshan ’s upcoming film bang bang , now the stunt director of ‘the hobbit ‘ glenn boswell , will be working on the actor’s next mohenjo daro . the stunt director who recently wrapped up working on the popular hobbit series has been pulled in by director ashutosh gowarikar for his period drama . boswell has designed the action sequences for epic action drama’s such as matrix and subsequently of wolverine and hobbit and it would certainly be exciting to see him work for this film . even though the film is a love story based in the indus valley civilization , the script consists of some grave action sequences that impressed boswell and thus he agreed to work on the project .

the film score and soundtrack for naadodigal was composed by sundar c babu . the song sambho siva sambho was later used in the hindi remake rangrezz as well , albeit with a little modifications . another song in hindi yaaro aisa hai was loosely based on ulagil yentha kathal
shiva on his way to commit suicide comes to know about a bungalow where 49 people have died mysteriously . he goes to that place , risking his life to see whether he can continue his research over there . his experiences in the bungalow forms the rest of the film .
mumbai : akshay kumar and ileana d ' cruz starrer ‘rustom’ , a film based on real life story of a naval officer km nanavati not just has an interesting storyline to narrate , but also an appealing album . the jukebox of rustom is out and it is a beautiful one .
i grew up in lucknow . i have heard the right lehja ( diction , pronunciation ) . i have lived 15 - 16 years in mumbai and so my language may have got slightly corrupted , but i have heard the right hindi dialect . also , being an aspiring singer , i have only heard film songs . the yesteryear film songs are a library by themselves , a kind of source material . so lehja , usage , metaphors , idioms , they are all within me . when i get the right tune , the right project , the right characters , they all find their way into my songwriting .
the comedy portions manage to tickle our funny bones here and there , but they are replete with double meaning dialogues justifying the ‘a’ certificate for the film . the ‘iyer’ episode can be defined as complete crass and it could have been done away with as it does not have anything to do with the main story .

premji has worked hard to uplift , the film with his music also . his introduction song ‘genius’ is foot tapping while the songs that come in the second half have been composed in the style of 1950s and most of them are pleasant to listen . but the number of songs make it redundant . re - recording is apt .
aamir khan’s pk has created a huge stir since the launch of its first poster so much so that amul has already come out a communication on the film . amul as a brand is very creative and is known for their print ads since decades . their creative depicts current affairs , be it politics , sports , judiciary or bollywood . however , what’s interesting here is that usually amul incorporates their communication with topical films post the release . but this time amul has taken out a communication on pk post the launch of the 1st poster itself . with a lot of buzz around the posters and the release , pk is the most anticipated film of the year clearly .
3 . you haven’t lost till you quit trying the film’s music itself is enough to make you pick yourself up after a fall and push harder than you did before . one of the greatest life lessons we learn from ‘ mary kom ’ is that winning isn’t just about scoring the most points ; it is also about getting up and going on
according to the maharashtra and up government , the story of mary kom is an inspiring tale and so that it reaches far and wide , the film will be exempted from tax . the film revolves around the struggle of boxer mary kom from manipur who not only became a five - time world amateur boxing champion , but also gave up the sport at the pinnacle of her career and embraced motherhood . the story is about her journey of getting back into the ring and then winning the olympics bronze medal for the nation . both the maharashtra and uttar pradesh governments feel that women should be encouraged more and thus the attempt to make the movie more popular it has been already declared tax free .
“but that’s what it’s like in the source material ! ” is a frequently used defense of subpar film adaptations , but here’s hoping keiichi sato and yasushi kawamura’s computer - generated “gantz : o” represents a departure from the original “gantz” comic ( written by hiroya oku , adapted for screen by tsutomu kuroiwa ) . otherwise it suggests strongly that all copies of the hugely popular manga [ … ]
in dilwale ’s manma emotion jaage , the line “dil hua milkha” has been taken from the character’s behaviour in the film whereas , perhaps , gerua , may not be the character’s language . but that is a dream sequence . you are among the glaciers in iceland and so you can take that liberty and use the word gerua irrespective of whether the character has heard that word or not .
i always used to think that my first draft itself was the best , but when it eventually came out , it worked , not because it became popular , it really worked with the film , it connected with the audiences , then i recognised that there is a brighter side to it , too . when someone compels you to push the envelope , it’s only then that you will do so .
tell us also about grammatical liberties a songwriter can take . for instance , majrooh sultanpuri used ‘kabhi aar , kabhi paar’ whereas most literary critics point out that “ aar paar ” , like the title of guru dutt’s 1954 film , can only be used in tandem . you use mannmarziyaan , which isn’t really a word . in ‘tuney maarey entriyaan’ , irshad kamil uses entriyaan , warrantiyaan , guarantiyaan – all for phonetic purposes .
it may not be the right example , but my national award - winning song ‘isi baat pe’ [ i am , 2011 ] , nobody knows of that song . basically , the story is that the character played by nandita das , a woman who decides to leave her boyfriend or her husband , i don’t remember now , decides to have a child . it was about artificial insemination . so hence the thought that “agar zindagi ho khud mein kahin , phir kyun rahe kisi ki kami , bojh ban ke rahe kyun subah kisi raat pe , aa badal dalein rasme sabhi isi baat pe , ” that let’s set a new trend . why not ? so the antara , “‘maanga nahin hai kabhi aasmaan , haan magar ik jharoka khula toh rakho , jeet dum tod dena kahin kisi maat pe , haan badal daalein rasme sabhi isi baat pe , ” is quite a simple , clean thought , but nobody knows about the song .
following its success , the film was remade in kannada , telugu , malayalam , bengali , and hindi . the kannada version , titled hudugaru is directed by maadesh and stars puneeth rajkumar , yogesh , srinagar kitty , radhika pandit , and abhinaya . the telugu version , titled shambo shiva shambo , named after a hit song from the original film , is directed by samuthirakani himself , and stars ravi teja , allari naresh , siva balaji , priyamani , abhinaya , and sunil . the malayalam version , titled ithu nammude katha , is directed by rakesh kannankara , and stars asif ali , abhishek , nishan , ananya , nimisha suresh , and amala paul . [ 11 ] the bengali version , titled run , is directed by swapan saha , and stars rahul banerjee , arnab , abhiraj , priyanka sarkar , and pamela mondal . the hindi version , titled rangrezz , is directed by priyadarshan , and stars jackky bhagnani , vijay verma , amitosh nagpal , priya anand , rajpal yadav , and akshara gowda .
might be . there is a possibility . fortunately , there is still a division . there is this group of young filmmakers who still want songs to be part of their narrative . like ayan mukerji . karan malhotra , agneepath ’s director , belongs to the school of thought that my song should appear this way in my film . even imtiaz ali really celebrates his songs very well on screen . and before anyone else , there is anurag kashyap . he manages to integrate songs somehow into his films .
there is one situation where you write songs as per the character , according to the moment he is placed in , according to his lingo . then there is another particular situation where you can take liberties because that situation is like that . for example , in band baaja baaraat , ”ainvayee , ainvayee , ainvayee” comes from the language used by shruti’s and bittoo’s characters . it is the language used in delhi’s streets . but in that same film there is a song , adha ishq or rather mitra , which is the most under noticed song from the film . mitra is very dear to me . i sang that song . now i have taken liberties there because they don’t lip [ sync ] that song . it’s a dream sequence . in a dream sequence , when it’s a third person’s perspective of the situation , then it can be your voice as well . it can be the audience’s language . there you don’t need to worry about the character’s lingo . there you can use rumi’s poetry as well .
as far as creative liberty is concerned , it totally depends on the team with which you are working . since you mentioned aiyyaa , sachin kundalkar , the director , gave us full freedom . he used to say , “amit , amitabh tum humaarey sher ho ( you are my strength ) . ” but that liberty doesn’t always come , especially when you are working on a more mainstream , more commercial , bigger film , with a bigger canvas . then it becomes more difficult . there are more filters there , more limitations .
now when i write something quirky , the moment that it comes to the point that it can be objectionable , that if someone sings it or listen to it , or that it forms a particular image in impressionable minds , i do think twice about writing it . but also having said that , sometimes there is a word or a line or a phrase in a song , that is very essential for that song , very essential for that film , very essential for that character . then one has to take a decision .
songwriting must take cognisance of the screenplay , the syntax used by the characters . at the same time , there may be a certain metaphor or idiom that the songwriter uses that may be alien to the character , but is necessary to bring out the poetic flavor of the song . a good example of this is aga bai from aiyyaa ( 2012 ) where rani mukerji’s character uses words like hirni and sandhali , which she may not necessarily use as part of her character’s syntax in the film . how do you explain such creative liberties ?
shah rukh khan’s sole focus is currently happy new year . with the announcement of slam and promotional activity beginning for the farah khan film , srk hasn’t begun work on both his next projects . in king khan’s kitty is yrf’s fan and excel entertainment’s raees , both of which will go on floors only next year . blocked till this diwali , khan will then begin looking into the research for fan . bulk dates have been allotted for both fan and raees . but sources close to yash raj films have revealed to koimoi that srk will begin work on fan first , given shah rukh’s prior commitment to yrf . raaes will only begin early next year . a leading paper had also mentioned that king khan was actively involved in both projects all through its scripting stage as well . while both films seem enticing to the superstar’s teeming millions of fans , it is fan that is in news more as the film’s pre production work is all already on in full swing . it is expected that king khan will have two massive releases next year if the films are wrapped up as per schedule and on time .

the video starts with the visual where ali and zarine visit a so - called ‘fantasy land’ to learn about the art of making love . but within a few minutes of the video , one can start feeling awkward by the kind of “love making” enacted . this continues throughout the video , and the only difference one can see is in the characters . ali and zarine , who in the first few minutes are mere spectators later , show us their moves .
but amidst the erotic visuals , is the song lost ? well , it is indeed , so much to the extent that one might not even get the hint of the new lyrics penned by manoj muntashir . besides the music and the first line , this new single is not anywhere close to the old kishore kumar classic . the issue with this new release is the production itself . it is quite confusing to understand whether t - series’ intention was to attract the audience by watching the video or listen to the song itself . there is so much action in the video that one might enjoy watching it rather than focusing on the singers and the music .
unlike the new release , t - series’ previous launches have done well musically . what went wrong with the strategy for this video is unknown yet , but is it just a desperate effort to monetise by all means ? unfortunately , the makers have crossed the line a bit too much and thoroughly failed in their effort if they expect this release to be ‘musically’ liked ( refer to the image below ) .

bekaar aadmi kuch kiya kar . . . kapde udherkar siya kar - jolly llb 2 movie dialogues
samundar aur aasmaan bhi mil jaate hai hamari tarah . . . aur jahan woh milte hai wahan duniya khatam ho jaati hai
but bhattacharya’s great - grandfather , too , did this purely as a hobby since , professionally , he was a jailor . “interestingly , he was a jailor in the british times , toh woh angrezon ke zamaane ke jailor thay , ” bhattacharya told me , quoting the popular line from the movie sholay when i met him for a conversation at a composer’s studio in mumbai’s juhu suburb .
forget background in lyric - writing . normally , someone who writes lyrics may keep a diary where he writes some kind of poetry . i had never written anything before coming to mumbai . i had read some hindi poetry in school , that was my only connection with hindi literature . i don’t consciously do any homework to enhance my vocabulary . also , i am not a very sustained or avid reader . as far as my information is concerned , my source is media in general , the people we meet .
i only write to melodies . i have never written anything for myself . tunes inspire me – the composers who are doing good work , or the interesting projects , which have interesting characters , which give me the feeling that there can be good songs .
there is a discernible contemporary flavor to your songwriting , be it ‘chai mein dooba biscuit ho gaya’ or ‘khooni monday kyun aaya khoon choos ne’ or ‘dil hua milkha , badi tez bhaagey re’ from your latest hit ‘manma emotion jaagey’ . does this come from observation of daily language ?
again , this happens unknowingly . over the years , i have realised that i have a knack for something that is phonetically interesting . in a particular tune , a certain chand ( metre ) , there may be a word or phrase that may be very catchy to listen to . like [ starts singing ] ‘oh meri jaan , oh meri jaan , mere ko majnu bana kar , kahaan chal di , kahaan chal di , pyaar ki pungi baja kar…’ that pungi has a sound that i can hear in my head .
what we find in everyday usage , what we speak , if that comes in the song , i feel that creates a connection . for example , ‘chai mein dooba biscuit ho gaya’ is not owing to its phonetic usage , but the fact that it actually happened . when i was working on ‘ ainvayee ainvayee lut gaya ’ [ band baaja baaraat , 2010 ] with salim - sulaiman , a couple of weeks before that we were working on ‘ bari barsi khatan gaya si ’ . i was at their studio . there was a tea break and biscuits had been served . i thought that this habit of dipping biscuits in tea , as far as i know , is a rather british thing . ‘where else does one do this ? do only indians do this ? ’ they also didn’t know but said that yes , this is a very indian thing . that stayed on in my head . and so when i was writing this song , i don’t know why , but i thought “chai mein dooba hua biscuit . ” every indian from kashmir to kanyakumari , or indians anywhere in the world , can relate to this .
