Any info?

what is ashu/rehman r upto

The film releases in October, so maybe the soundtrack will release in September.

Jodha Akbar -- what kind of name is that for a film on Akbar -- bad name "weak" - uninspiring - pedestrian

Trying to maintain a trend (Laila Majnu, Heer Ranjha, Sohni Mahiwal) for a love story between Akbar & Jodha Bai.

Heh heh -- not too good an attempt though... It's an inappropriate name for a story of a man of e-azam proportions. Plus Jodha Akbar just doesn't sound right. Khuda Na Khaasta if the film flops, you know what Jodha Akbar would become

Eeeks! Vulgar!!

Ashutosh Gowariker’s Jodhaa Akbar was first set to release in Diwali this year, but the film was pushed to an early January 2008 release. However, sources now inform us that the magnum opus will now hit the theatres on January 25 next year.

We are told, “The change of release date is due to the fact that Jodhaa Akbar has an extremely demanding post-production schedule.

Based in the sixtieth century, the film tells a story about the marriage of alliance that gave birth to true love between the greatest Mughal emperor that ruled Hindustan, Jalaluddin Mohammad Akbar, and the fiery young Rajput princess, Jodhaa.

Starring Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Bachchan in the main roles, this historical epic, we’re sure, will be worth the wait.

Was it the theme from 'Last of the Mohicans' ... ?

plagiarism?

BTW Aap Ka Suroor also lifted background music from Eyes Wide Shut.

I am hoping that this was something IndiaFM (or whoever shot the interviews) added ... opposed to it being part of Jodhaa Akbar's score.

New Delhi (PTI): Often considered as the 'Mozart of Asia,' musician Allah Rakha Rahman has done everything from classical to reggae and now with Shekar Kapur's 'Elizabeth: the Golden Age' awaiting release, where he pairs up with Hollywood actor Craig Armstrong, he is very excited.

"It has been really a wonderful experience working with Craig. We travelled a lot in places like Glasgow...remotely working with the guys in London," says Rahman who was in the capital recently.

The singer-composer has his hands full with a lot of films, the latest being Ashutosh Gowarikers 'Jodha Akbar' starring Hrithik Roshan and Ashwariya Rai Bachchan.

"Jodha Akbar is a romantic story about a king falling in love with a princess and I have tried to keep the music contemporary so that it satisfies both critics and the music lovers," he says.

"The music of the film is very much what is required for the film. We have celebration songs and quawallis," he adds. Rahman, who composed the music of Subhash Ghai's 'Kisna' is once again paring up with the director in his latest flick, 'Yuvraaj'.

"Yuvraaj is a very challenging project. We had a hard time composing the first two songs but now as those have been cracked, we hope we will be able to wrap it up quickly," he says.

"We have a very unlikely combination in this film as we have Gulzar saab, Subhash Ghaiji and me in this venture," he adds. Rahman who was in the city, will be performing live in the capital in November for the first time.

"I was planning to perform in Delhi for the last 10 years and now I have got the chance to perform and I am very excited about it," he says.

Rahman had composed the tracks of 'Shivaji-The Boss,' which struck gold at the box office in India and abroad and now since the film is being dubbed in Hindi, Rahman is a little apprehensive about it.

"After a long time, I have decided to dub my songs in Hindi. I had almost stopped dubbing in Hindi but this time I am convinced that it will do well. The music is ready and will be released soon," he says.

While other music directors of tinsel town have already started cashing on their popularity by joining the small screen and also vying for the big screen, Rahman is unperturbed and says he is a musician and would love to remain so.

"I have enough musical commitments to fulfill and I love to be a musician and would love to continue the good work. And anyways, I am not well versed in acting so it doesn't matter to me," he says.

Not bad, I'm looking forward to it. Judging from Lagaan and Swades, this film has to be at least decent if not great.

Thanks Roshan's dialogs delivery stinks though!
