RA.One: Third Day To Cross 15 Cr


After creating a massive buzz on its opening and second days, Shah Rukh Khan's RA.One was greeted with open arms on its third day, and tradewallahs believe the film will create history with its growing numbers. Tradewallahs believes that the film is expected to cross Rs 15 crore on its third day.
In Mumbai, Balkrishan Shroff of Shringar Films says, "RA.One had a fabulous second-day run in Mumbai and all over India as well. Its third day will also clock strong numbers at the end of the day. On day three too, the film opened on a good note. With the weekend coming up, expectations are running high."

RA.One




Shah Rukh Khan's " RA.One" has been generating curiosity since beginning and expectations have been high from its music as well. The album of the film lives up to the expectations, thanks to composers Vishal-Shekhar for packing a musical punch for the sci-fi movie.

The film offers 14 tracks, including remix versions and theme tracks.

It starts on a rocking note with the already popular number "Chammak Challo". A clear winner all the way, the song, which has Hindi, English and Tamil words in the lyrics, makes you groove.

An interesting thing about the track is that it's crooned by international artist Akoon, who has voiced not just the English lyrics but Hindi ones too. Hamika Iyer supports him by singing Tamil words. A fun dance number, "Chammak Challo" is here to stay and it will surely become DJs' favourite.

The song also has a few other versions, including a remix by Abhijit Vaghani, another remix by DJ Khushi and an international version.

Then comes "Dildaara", a mush melody at its best. Sung by Shafqat Amanat Ali, it has John Lennon's song "Stand by me" mixed into it and the combination is interesting. The song boasts of various genres.

Then comes another Akon number called "Criminal", a peppy and upbeat track that also has Vishal Dadlani and Shruti Pathak behind the mike. An amalgamation of Hindi and English lyrics, "Criminal" is a perfect party number.

It also has a remixed version by DJ Amit.

Next is "Bhare naina" and it will make you sit up and take notice. The song has been sung by The Prague Philharmonic Choir, the chorus group that came here all the way from the Czech Republic to sing the song with Nandini Srikar and Vishal-Shekhar. If the semi-classical flavour in the number sets a pensive mood, use of orchestration takes it to another level. The choir makes the song sound very international, but its soul and feel are Indian.

Then there is "Right by your side", an ordinary composition crooned by Sidd Coutto. A regular fast-paced composition, it is a happy and exuberant track.

"Raftaarein" reminds one of R.D. Burman compositions. Sung by Vishal-Shekhar, it is a perfect chase track. The style of composition is very similar to that of Burman and, despite being a situational track, it leaves its mark.

Up next is "Jiya mora ghabraaye", a fusion of rock and semi- classical. It has a very strong musical arrangement and impressive vocals by Vishal Dadalani and Sukhwinder Singh and the song will be liked by hard rock lovers. Interesting composition and a good attempt.

Then the album offers three instrumental theme tracks called "Comes the light", "I'm on" and "Song of the end".

On the whole the album is worth buying and offers some interesting and entertaining tracks. Kudos to the music composers!

I dance to Chammak Challo: Shah Rukh Khan





The makers of Chammak Challo are pleased with the popularity the music of this film is garnering... 


RA.One music and RA.One songs seem to be the anthem of the day. Actor Shah Rukh Khan's ambitious venture seem to have begun on a high, melodious note. The famous number - Chammak Challo - rendered by Akon is gaining much popularity and has already climbed the top of the charts. 


In fact, Chammak Chalo is increasingly being played at nightclubs, and the foot-tapping beats have become a huge hit with the masses and DJs at large. 


Another song that's being much applauded is 'Dildara'. Sung by Shafqat Amanat Ali, Dildara is a beautiful soft love song that can't be missed. 


The music composers of this album Vishal-Shekhar are more than happy with the response RA.One is getting. "It gave us great opportunities. It was a lot of hard work and we are only glad that it's working!" 


Of the 14 tracks, everyone involved with the film is finding it difficult to pick just one favourite. 


Shah Rukh Khan at the music launch of RA.One profusely thanked his entire team and especially the music directors and technicians to bring to celluloid the first Indian super hero flick in 3D. 


He also thanked his stunt double. "Everyone does the hard work for me. I just get the benefit. They do the stunts and all the difficult tasks. The only thing I do is dance to Chammak Challo," said SRK.

RA.One gets an addition



Shah Rukh Khan's RA.One has got a shot in the arm by way of a new music video for the song Raftarein. Choreographed by Feroze Khan, the song was shot last week.

SRK plans as a last minute addition to the film on the behest of director Anubhav Sinha. Strangely, Sinha also shot the chartbuster Dus Bahane from his film Dus right at the end just close to the release date.

Talking about the decision to add another song, Anubhav says, "Raftarein was initially just a melody playing in a background sequence. But the response that tune got was so good that I asked Vishal-Shekhar to compose an entire song over it. Raftarein has got unanimously great reviews and the song has amazing energy. I thought why not shoot a music video and put it in the film. I called up Shah Rukh, who was in the middle of his crazy promotions, and asked him to spare a couple of hours. He agreed and we shot the video. Everyone is going to be blown away by it. I did the same thing during Dus Bahane."

There has also been buzz that Shah Rukh is keen on putting out an extended version of RA.One after its release, depending on the response from the audience. SRK was toying with the idea of including extra scenes in the film and releasing a new version soon after release. Reacting to this buzz, Sinha adds, "Yes, this might be a possibility. I need to sit with Shah Rukh and discuss these things. He's been extremely busy promoting the film and we will discuss this possibility when we meet during the various tour stops for the premiere."

Shah Rukh Khan’s got a new office – and it’s an entire building!


Shah Rukh Khan's bungalow, Mannat, on Bandstand in Bandra, Mumbai, is a landmark in the city. Whenever you pass his heritage bungalow, you will see hordes of people trying to catch a glimpse of the actor, which is next to impossible, given its high walls.
If that isn't enough, SRK's new office space for his company Red Chillies Entertainment, on 15th Cross Road in Khar, is a traffic-stopper, with him rising out of the walls of the building in his G.One superhero avatar from his upcoming film, Ra.One. Interestingly, the film is titled Ra.One, the antagonist, played by Arjun Rampal; SRK plays G.One, the superhero. You cannot help but notice the entire building space comprising 40,000 square feet, covered in the film's posters on the relatively quiet Ram Krishna Mission Marg area.

A tad narcissistic, but then SRK is not known to do anything in small measures. With SRK, just an office is not enough – an entire building is what he needs! He had purchased the land in 2008 and construction work has been going on in full-swing since. Finally, his dream office has taken shape. The plot of land was popularly known as Watch Tower in the area as it housed a ground and a two-storey prayer hall with a watchtower earlier. SRK is set to move into his swank, new office around Diwali when it will be ready to welcome the King and his court.
