Bachna Ae Haseeno presents special musical treat
The upcoming Ranbir Kapoor starrer from Yash Raj movies, Bachna Ae Haseeno will have a unique song that bridges two generations.
The song is the title song Bachna Ae Haseeno that was originally sung by Kishore Kumar and composed by RD Burman. Now Vishal Shekhar are presenting a new version combining the voices of Kishore Kumar with that of his son, Sumit Kumar.
“It was director Siddharth Anand’s idea of having the two sing together. We had initially approached Amit Kumar but later it was Amit who gave us Sumit’s number and asked us to try him instead. Amit had already sung for us in Jhankaar Beats and that was also a tribute to RD Burman and this time around we thought of making Sumit sing instead”, said Vishal Dadlani.
Vishal -Shekhar are riding on the wave of success of their score for Tashan though the movie bombed. “16 Lakh Tashan records got sold, what if the film didn’t do well! It’s just that there is a thin line between genius and madness. The director crossed this line and went a bit overboard but that doesn’t make him a loser. He tried to do something different”, claim the two in unison.
With Bachna Ae Haseeno, the duo is right on target again.

The title song was indeed the high point of the album along with “Khuda Jaane”. The rest of the songs are passe. They simply don’t add up to the brilliance of the music directors, glimpses of which is visible on Khuda Jaane.
Except a few music review sites like Planet Radio city, rest are busy discussing the highs while avoiding the lows.
