Young lovers shouldn't go beyond friendship: Gurmeet Ram Rahim

The known Dera Chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim’s debut movie MSG: The Messenger is atypically releasing on the eve of Valentine’s Day. And Rockstar Baba as the Ram Rahim is generally known does have a message for all young lovers.

Ram Rahim reveals, “I have seen youngsters celebrating it in schools and colleges. They make a lot of promises too. I think till the time they are friends, it’s okay. Every friendship should have its limitations. If the boundaries of friendship are crossed there is a lot to lose especially if they are not together anymore in future. So if you are just friends, there is nothing to lose and you will lead a tension-free life. So I believe there should be limitations and boundaries drawn in friendship.”

Ram Rahim also thinks of India’s culture as the number one in the world. “We have the world’s number one culture. When we are small, our parents take care of us and when we grow up we take care of them like they are our kids. That’s our culture.”

Badlapur Music Review: All songs are harmonious and pleasant according film theme.

Badlapur: All songs are harmonious and pleasant according film theme.

  

Release Date: 20 February 2015

Genre: Drama | Social

Banner: Maddock Films, Eros International

Producer: Dinesh Vijan , Sunil Lulla

Director: Sriram Raghavan

Cast: Varun Dhawan , Yaami Gautam , Huma Qureshi , Nawazuddin Siddiqui , Vinay Pathak

Music Director: Sachin, Jigar

After a unsuccessful outing with Saif Ali Khan in Agent Vinod, Director Sriram Raghavan has returned to wield the megaphone for Badlapur which is being produced by Saif’s partner, Dinesh Vijan, who has incidentally also debuted as a lyricist with this movie! Headlining the star cast for this vengeance drama is Karan Johar’s pupil, Varun Dhawan along with Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Huma Qureshi, Yaami Gautam and Divya Dutta.

Music for an action drama movie such as this is not essentially integral to the screenplay. Rather the songs generally play the role of a filler/ breather in such movies. Consequently, it is all the more significant for music composers Sachin-Jigar to come up with a soundtrack that can make a mark in this dark thriller. Lyrical credits for this short album (consisting of just 3 songs) have been shared by Priya Saraiya and Dinesh Vijan.

The album opens with Jee Karda and what a stunner it is! While Sachin-Jigar score with the composition, Divya Kumar’s overwhelming vocals stay with you long after the song gets over. The young composers make best use of the shehnai and guitars to make a superb fusion cocktail which enthralls you! The opening lines might deceive you into thinking that it is yet another Bhangra pop number but once the guitars take over, you realize that you are in for a rare and amazing Punjabi rock number. While the original itself is mind-blowing, the Rock version rocks you even more with the pleasant Harmonium brought into the mix.

  

The next one is Jeena Jeena song with Atif Aslam. A beauty of a composition, this track is for all the romantics out there and Atif sings with such passion that one cannot help but fall in love with this soft and sweet tune. Sachin-Jigar score with this simple yet heart-warming composition which, depending on the box-office success of the movie, has the potential to turn out to be among the most romantic songs of 2015. The Remix of this track though is alright but needless as the peace and tranquility exuded by the original version is totally lost in its remixed version.

  

The next one Judaai is an experimentation which might not find favor with everybody. That the better half of Director Vishal Bhardwaj has unique but impactful vocals is widely acknowledged but the way Sachin-Jigar have used Rekha Bhardwaj’s vocals takes you totally by surprise. Arijit provides the perfect foil to Rekha’s deep and throaty vocals and together they manage to create a dreamy feel to this poignant yet soulful track.

  

Overall, the soundtrack of Badlapur is very good as per film theme. Sachin-Jigar who had a mixed 2014 have come out with all guns blazing to have an excellent and thunderous start to 2015 with this album.

Why Anushka Sharma won’t be able to cheer Virat Kohli in this world cup?

Public PDA of sports person is the reason behind BCCI’s new rule. Looks like BCCI is not happy with the PDA moments of cricketer Virat Kohli and girlfriend Anushka Sharma in the cricket stadium during the matches held last year which enforced the association to pass a special rule.

Bearing in mind this ICC World Cup, the BCCI has once more passed the rule of not granting Ms. Sharma the permission to enter the stadium places where India will take on other teams in the coming ICC World Cup.

Shedding light on whether she will be seen cheering team India, particularly boyfriend Virat Kohli’s game, Anushka told it smilingly, “If I go, you may get to see me” adding, “I’ll be busy promoting NH10 which will consume a lot of my time.”

Ranbir Kapoor supports Ranveer Singh's new show 'AIB Roast'!

However the AIB Roast video poked fun at Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor, who were in a relationship before Deepika got close to Ranveer Singh, the Rockstar lately spoke in support of the highly scandalous video.

Talking about the video, which has drawn criticism from many celebs in the industry, particularly Aamir Khan, Ranbir told, ''I understand that we live in a society with many dos and donts, but this is not something that is forced on to your face. If you choose to see it, you see it for your entertainment. It's done for the sake of comedy. As an audience, if I had a child, I would not let him see it as there is viewer's discretion. But I have travelled the world, I have been exposed to different cultures…good or bad, I have the right to see it.''

Ranbir will be next seen sharing screen space with Deepika Padukone in Imtiaz Ali's Tamasha.

Arjun Kapoor prepares for Shimit Amin's next with YRF!

Arjun Kapoor is becoming one of the most sought out actors in Bollywood. Arjun's last movie Tevar failed to create any buzz, but his act in Finding Fanny was well respected and he soon started getting a lot of offers from film-makers.

We had lately reported that Arjun had signed a movie with YRF and we hear that the movie will be helmed by Shimit Amin who has previously directed movies such as Chak De India, Rocket Singh Salesman of the Year and Ab Tak Chhappan.

He has seemingly turned down Reema Kagti's Mr. Chaloo as both movies are said to go on floors at the same time.

Anushka Sharma's NH10 will be an 'A' rated movie!

Anushka Sharma's production debut NH10, which has been directed by Navdeep Singh, will maybe be Sharma's first movie with an 'A' certificate.

Talking about the movie, Singh told that the movie has many such scenes, which are not appropriate for kids because of the gore and expletives and that he has no issues with the movie getting an 'A' certificate as he feels that diluting the scenes will alienate the viewers.

  

Apart from Anushka, NH10 stars Neil Bhoopalam and Darshan Kumar and the movie revolves around a nightmare that an urban couple faces when they venture into the dusty badlands of Gurgaon.
