T-Series Head Honcho Bhushan Kumar had tough time convincing Rakesh
Roshan, the Producer of ‘Kites’ to include remixes in album of the
movie. Finally, Rakesh Roshan agreed to include remixes in his upcoming
film.
Rakesh Roshan has held the record of not including remixes in any of
his movies. But finally that record has been broken with the movie
‘Kites’ starring Hrithik Roshan and Barbara Mori along with Kangana
Ranaut.
Three songs which have been composed by Rajesh Roshan ‘Dil Kyun Yeh
Mera’, ‘Tum Bhi Ho Wahi’ and ‘Zindagi Do Pal Ki’ were remixed.
According to Kumar, T-series top man, “Somehow I convinced Rakesh
Roshan and Hrithik for the remixes. It was definitely hard to convince
them, but I gave them reasons to justify what I was saying. Hrithik
understood my concerns because he himself visits clubs and pubs and he
knows what kind of music is played. I managed to change their opinion,”
Kumar even mentioned the reason why producers and composers don’t
want remixes in their movies. Normally, producers and composers really
work hard towards their song and after all these efforts they don’t want
extra beats to be added to these songs.
But even if composers and producers don’t remix their song, still
some DJ’s go ahead and remix it so that they can play that in clubs or
even put them on web. But most of the time quality of these songs is not
up to date. That’s why it’s better that companies take initiatives to
remix songs so that people can receive better quality.
According to Kumar, remixes from ‘Kites’ have helped him to earn more
revenue. Kumar even mentioned that he likes experimenting with music of
big banner releases. As ‘Kites’ is a big film so we thought of doing
something different with it and went ahead with releasing the music on
the radio. We have decided to do something different for ‘Ra One’ which
is also expected to be one of the biggest movies of the year.
