01:31I hope you enjoyed the AV.
01:33Working in this film has been one of the most fulfilling experiences for most of us.
01:42And especially for our director, Ashutosh.
01:44You can see how full and filled he looks.
01:47But seriously, I was talking to him about his next venture and asked him, what's your next
01:57project?
01:58So he looked at his stomach and said, six-pack abs.
02:02So I said, well, this has taken about two years to make.
02:07I wonder how long that will take.
02:09Yeah, I can't imagine the delays on that one.
02:16I'm just standing here very, very grateful.
02:20And in full gratitude that I've had the opportunity to work with such good people, great talents.
02:31People ask me how is the music of this film.
02:34And I just look at them and I say, A.R.
02:37Aiman.
02:38And they get this broad smile on their faces and they nod in wonderment.
02:43As if to say that nothing more needs to be said.
02:46Because when it's A.R. Aiman, it's beyond judgment.
02:49That's the extent of his greatness.
02:58So I just want to thank everyone.
03:02Thank you, Ash.
03:03Thank you, Ash.
03:05Thank you, Javedan.
03:06Thanks for just happy that I got a chance to be in such.
03:12It's such a great film made by such a great team.
03:17Also, thanks to the best crew that I've ever worked with.
03:26Yeah, great to cheer you guys.
03:29That's nice.
03:32Totally magnificent job done, guys.
03:37And thank you everyone for coming.
03:39And I hope you have a wonderful evening and a wonderful year ahead.
03:50Well, Riddik has left much for me to say.
03:53I absolutely echo his sentiments.
03:58This has been a terrific experience working with you, Ashutosh.
04:04And the entire team.
04:09Thank you so much.
04:10Thank you, Rehba.
04:11And thank you, Javedan, yet again.
04:13Always a pleasure.
04:14Each experience unique and a terrific memory.
04:18Thanks, Ronnie.
04:19Thank you, Riddik, yet again.
04:22And a completely different genre.
04:25But always a pleasure working with you.
04:27To the entire cast and crew.
04:30Terrific, terrific team.
04:33Very, very hard working.
04:35Thank you for every day.
04:37It's been a long journey, but a very fulfilling one.
04:41And God bless you all.
04:42You're a sincerity personified.
04:44Commitment personified.
04:46And you all truly deserve the kudos.
04:49So a huge round of applause, please, for the whole team.
05:00Good evening, everybody.
05:03Sab ko merah namashkar.
05:05I must say, this was...
05:08I must say, it's wonderful having a son like Riddik.
05:14It was a pleasure.
05:15It was a pleasure.
05:16It was a good time working on working so many years.
05:19And I can say that everyone has felt that I am not feeling that I am working on working so many years.
05:32All of a sudden, I will give thanks to your dear friend.
05:38Thank you Ash, thank you so much for convincing me to get back and I promise you I would let
06:00anybody down. Thank you Ash, thank you so much.
06:30And without saying how his involvement is at the moment, I would like to first invite him on stage, Shri Amitabh Bachchanji.
07:00This is very unfair of Ashutosh to include me in this evening's program, especially on stage.
07:22I'd hope that my involvement would have been behind the screen which is what he hasn't been able to tell you.
07:32But I think I might as well let you know. I haven't still done my job yet. I will do it in a couple of days.
07:39It is to provide the voiceover of this marvellous film and I hope that my association with him in the film Lagana, which is also in the shape of a voiceover, will prove as fruitful and as valuable to Ashutosh.
07:54Thank you Ashutosh. Thank you.
08:04Look how the music is, you will do it, but to write songs from the popular films from the popular films, it is a different experience.
08:14The reason is that what is the historical picture is that you want to be like the words of your songs, that it is the song of that time.
08:21But if you write songs of that time, then how do you understand the person of today's time?
08:26So, you are writing songs of that time, but for the people of today's time.
08:32So, you have to create a balance between the present and the past in the language.
08:39Bringing an epic love story, what are the things you had to keep in mind and how much Ashutosh has been brief.
08:47How difficult it becomes when you have to...
08:50I think when you have a team where you worked with them before, you are mentally ready with all this stuff.
08:55I am not like a student working on anything.
08:58I have also done stuff before.
09:01So, in probably 3-4 months, we got into a groove of what is needed for the film.
09:08Okay sir, whenever your name is connected with some other films, there are huge expectations.
09:14So, is there pressure?
09:16There is pressure always within us to deliver something.
09:19When that is done, then we are not that pressurized when it releases because we know that
09:24some songs might be accepted very fast, some might be a little slow.
09:27So, what do you mean how much...
09:28And the song does sound like you tried?
09:30Just talk something about Revelation.
09:31The song which we have sung.
09:33The song which I sang, Kwaaja Meri Kwaaja, was recorded before the film was conceived.
09:37And it was my wish to do a song on Kwaaja sahab and Ajmeesha.
09:42And it happened when I did my Australia tour.
09:45I did this composition that I am in.
09:472005.
09:48And when I finished that, I gave it to... I just played it to Ashutosh and he loved it and used it in his film.
09:54Your combination with Javesh sahab is also like in one way excellent.
09:58What are you expecting with the songs also in class?
10:01Well, I think he gives the class which the film needs in lyrics and the way he expresses stuff.
10:08I don't have to say anything about Javesh sahab, but the whole world knows.
10:12Sir, which one is your favourite writing?
10:15All of them.
10:16How much sense Ashutosh and Javesh have in the music?
10:21I think to get a good music, you need to have a taste for music.
10:26And because I could give a great tune and he might reject it.
10:30So he embraces a lot of good things and that's a very good quality in him.
