Rockstar
What is it? Establishing as a versatile filmmaker with the success of his last ventures 'Jab We Met' and 'Love Aaj Kal', Imitaz Ali is back with a musical romance. Starring B-town heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor and fresh face Nargis Fakhri, 'Rockstar' traces the life of a musician Janardhan Jakhar aka Jordan, played by Ranbir. The movie is turning out to be a sensation for its concept and fabulous music which is composed by music legend A R Rehman. 'Rockstar' is the last movie of legendary 'Yahoo' icon, Shammi Kapoor', who features here in a cameo role. The director reported to have put his heart and soul into this movie and researched immensely to give the film a touch of reality; like most of his other films. The movie is mostly shot in several locales of Kashmir and Delhi. Bannered under Eros International Media Ltd and Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision Ltd, 'Rockstar' is produced by Dhillin Mehta. The Story Janardan, born and brought up in the very middle class locality of Pitampura in Delhi, has a larger than life dream - of being a rockstar like Jim Morrison! But all he gets from his reluctant audience is ridicule and humiliation. He's at his wit's end, when he realises that all musical stars, all artists in fact, have one thing in common. And that is tragedy. They all have tragic lives. They have all suffered painful heartbreaks to become what they are. Alas, there is no pain in Janardan's life - it is an oasis of peace. Unless he does something drastic, he will never become a rockstar. Heer Kaul is the undisputed diva of the college campus - beautiful, talented, arrogant, rich, unavailable. She has broken many hearts. Janardan hopes she will break his heart too. He sets out to woo Heer with the sole object of getting his heart broken. 'Rockstar' is the journey of a boy - who leaves behind Janardan to become Jordan; who traverses the highs and lows of life - from simple naivete to tortured soul, from the pleasure of unaffected friendship to the torment of unrequited love, from the campus in Delhi to the international stage... He ultimately gets all that his heart has ever desired...but in the process shatters / loses his heart forever... The Arrival 'Rockstar' is all set to rock at the theatres on 11.11.11 |
