|| Rockstar| Imtiaz Ali | A R Rahman ||
Enter Rahman exit Pritam
By Subhash K Jha
Posted On Tuesday, February 16, 2010 at 04:30:41 AM
After composing chartbusting scores in Imtiaz Ali’s Jab We Met and Love Aaj Kal one would think music composer Pritam Chakraborty is an integral and indispensable part of Imtiaz’s cinema. Surprisingly, that’s not the case any longer, at least not as far as Imtiaz’s next film, Rock Star is concerned.
The emotional composer tried to hide his hurt as well as he could and said, “I haven’t been approached for Rock Star. I’ve heard that Rahman is doing it. Am I hurt about not being part of Imtiaz’s new film? I’ve been too busy to think about it. I’m sure we’ll work together again in the future.”
Although Imtiaz remained unavailable for comment it is no secret that the filmmaker is known to let his head and not his heart rule when it comes to deciding his cast and crew. For instance, despite creating magic with Kareena Kapoor in Jab We Met he signed Deepika Padukone for Love Aaj Kal although Kareena, incidentally the film’s producer Saif Ali Khan’s lady-love, was very keen to be part of the film.
Kareena too couldn’t hide her hurt when she publicly admitted while receiving the best actress award for Jab We Met that she was upset with Imtiaz for not casting her in Love Aaj Kal. Even after Love Aaj Kal, Imtiaz chose Ranbir Kapoor over Saif Ali Khan in Rock Star although the latter had at one point been signed for it. Pritam’s exclusion is particularly surprising as he was known to be a close friend of Imtiaz.
According to reliable sources, the magical AR Rahman has already recorded two songs for Rock Star. While this fresh director-music composer jodi will be something to look forward to, those hoping to see Imtiaz and Pritam form a Nasir Hussain-RD Burman kind of director-composer team will surely be disappointed.
Rahman confirmed he’s composing music for Rock Star. “I will do it after I meet Imtiaz since one-fourth of the music is ready,” he said.

yes, imtiaz has a penchant for good music and he extracts the best out of pritam, who is another copycat.......
and for those who didnt know - as a dialogue writer - imtiaz ali is someone in the range of K.Bhagyaraj
