It
is not everyday that one gets to see the
legendary Amitabh Bachchan as the master
of ceremonies. The audio launch of ‘Guru’
had witnessed the phenomenon called Amitabh
Bachchan wielding the microphone and entertaining
the august audience.
The
music of Guru, a Hindi film directed
by Mani Ratnam was released recently
with the all the key players connected
with the film gracing the occasion.
A R Rahaman, the much preferred music
composer of Mani and Gulzar the lyricist
were present in addition to Abhishek,
Aishwarya, Vidya Balan and Madhavan.
Gulzar recited a few lines of the
song that he had penned for the film.
There are seven numbers in Guru which
are being sung by the current popular
singers of tinsel town viz, Shreya
Ghosal, Udit Narayan, Hariharan and
Madhushree to name a few. A R Rahaman
himself has sung a number.
When
Amitabh took over the role of a reporter
quizzing the lead artists of the film,
they were only too happy to oblige him
with a crisp reply. Abhishek could not
believe his luck when Mani invited him
for the second time to feature in his
film. Some sources opine that Abhishek’s
character has been etched to reflect the
illustrious Dhiru Bhai Ambani. Aishwarya
is playing Abhishek’s wife in Guru.
In summation, it was a star studded function
which had all the colourful elements of
a rainbow. From the way it appears, Guru
is here to rock!!!!
