Recently, I got a call from a woman in Chandigarh, and she was choking telling
me, You read my mind. These are reactions that a writer doesnt normally get
to see. Im so glad that TZP has done well, because usually, a film like TZP
wouldve been categorised as art cinema. So to have an intellectual subject and
appeal to the masses is quite an achievement.
Aamir gave me complete liberty... We had several interactions and Aamir even
narrated the script to me a couple of times. It helped me soak in the spirit of
the film before I wrote the lyrics. Aamir also gave me a lot of inputs. I had
set the song Kholo Kholo Darwaza to when Ishaan bunks school and roams the
streets of Mumbai. But Aamir changed it and played it during the painting
competition and it fitted in so well! Aamir knows his mind, but he also knows
when not to be pushy.
I owe TZPs songs to my daughter... Shes two-and-a-half and has a opinion on
everything. Ive been observing her playing, singing and those are the thoughts
I put into my songs. The lyrics in Bum Bum Bole were fanciful dekho dekho,
kya woh paid hai, ya khada koi chadar odh ke and this was inspired by my
niece who went on a picnic to a fort and heard echoes. She later told us, I
shouted at the house and it shouted back at me. I was fascinated by the idea
and used it in Bum Bum Bole. When I wrote Roobaroo for RDB, I translated the
angst and anger in me into a song.
Ive been associated with all the biggies in B-town... But thats only because
the audience has been supportive about my kind of work. I dont mind being part
of even a small budget film because Im not really bothered about the economics
of a film. Its the bigness of an idea that inspires me to write for a film.
Id never be associated with a project, no matter how big the banner, if the
thought behind it is small.
I dont relate to Himesh Reshammiyas kind of music... But as an ad guy, I
always believe that if there are consumers for something, it must be good. Im
glad that theres a lot of fresh blood coming into the industry and people are
less stuck up about accepting various kinds of music. There was a lot of bad
music in between, but theres been a resurgence of sorts and good music is now
being appreciated. And look out for some outstanding music in my next film,
Dilli 6.
