Now thats what i call a NEWS. :P The one movie with Mani Ratnam is the non stop comedy, and it has music by ARR. The second one the Ghanji remake, even that posssibly has ARRahman doing the music as previously mentioned quite a few times but not confirmed yet. That is great news. I just have one wish that the songs of Maniratnam movie, although it would be an all out comedy, should have serious lyrics and only picturized funny (like say Andaz apna apna songs).That would be something great. And no need to say i want GULZAR for lyrics. just imagine ARR-Maniratnam-Aamir khan- Gulzar What a soundtrack that would be. Take care and enjoy.

The reticent actor, who lets his work speak for himself, has just delivered a super-success in RANG DE BASANTI. Agreed, Aamir has been a part of many a successful film in the past, but RANG DE BASANTI is his biggest grosser to date. Obviously, he has reasons to feel euphoric. > > âYes, I am thrilled with the success,â a cheerful Aamir tells me. The supremely talented actor had gone off press after MANGAL PANDEY and now that RANG DE BASANTI has hit the bullâs eye, his belief in letting the work speak for itself has only strengthened. âMy reasons for staying away [from the media] were strictly professional. The media is supposed to be the watchdog, guiding and enlightening the nation all the while, but look at what it has stooped to these days? Sensationalism has taken over completely,â he sounds concerned. > > Back to RANG DE BASANTI. Itâs indeed surprising that the actor hasnât teamed up with Rakyesh Omprakash Mehra again. Generally, in Bollywood, a successful film only cements the relationship between two professionals. âHe [Mehra] feels the script of his new film doesnât suit me. In fact, he was toying with the idea of making this script during RANG DE BASANTI itself and it was understood that I wouldnât be a part of it,â the soft-spoken actor divulges. > > Not that there are dearth of offers for Aamir. Now that FANAH is complete [âI havenât seen the film,â says Aamir], heâs ready to start work on two films. And, coincidentally, both the projects will be directed by South-based directors. > > The announcement thatâs bound to create ripples is that of Mani Ratnam and Aamir teaming up for a film. Yes, Mani has signed Aamir for his forthcoming project thatâs expected to roll in October this year. âWe were keen to work with one another for a long time. In fact, he had approached me earlier too, but things didnât work out. However, itâs happening finally,â he smiles. > > Unlike Maniâs last few films, this will be a one-language film, to be made in Hindi only. âI canât speak Tamil,â Aamir states, âRight now, Mani hasnât finalized anyone else. Not even the leading lady. All I know is that I have allotted dates from October onwards.â > > The second project Aamir has given his confirmation to is the remake of the Tamil hit GHAJINI. âItâs the first time I am acting in a Tamil remake and I am pretty excited about it. Itâs not one of those typical masala films imported in Bollywood. Thereâs solid substance in this one,â Aamir enthuses. The director of the Tamil film, Murugadoss, will direct the Hindi version as well, the actor adds > Explore, Experience, Enjoy A.R.Rahman - The Man, The Music, The Magic.
