Gulzaar writes ten poems for Dus Kahaniyaan
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,November 14 2007]
Legendary Poet- lyricist Gulzaar, has written ten different poems for Sanjay GuptaÂs new venture ÂDus KahaniyaanÂ. Every poem depicts GulzaarÂs interpretation of each of these ten stories..
These ten poems are part of a special three disc music album of ÂDus KahaniyaanÂ, and have been recited by the actors from these stories. Actors who have lent their voices include Nana Patekar, Naseeruddin Shah, Dia Mirza, Sanjay Dutt, Amrita Singh, Anupam Kher, Sudhanshu Pande, Neha Dhupia and Manoj Bajpai. Specially designed Background score for the poems has been done by Bappa Lahri.
Gulzaar has added a different flavor through his compositions in the album. Sanjay is very ecstatic about this association, I've been convincing Gulzaar Saheb to be part of my cinema for a long time. I'm his biggest fan in the world and with Dus Kahaniyaan I have got what I wantedÂ.
On the occasion Gulzaar said Sanjay Gupta and I met and I liked his concept. It would be interesting to make my poetry a reflection of the visuals in his short stories. I feel the scope of poetic expression is expanding in our cinema.
This is the first time ever in the history of Indian cinema that 6 different directors, 4 Music Composers and 25 actors have come together for one cinematic journey of ten different stories.
