After all the hype and hoopla that happened around Diwali for Ra.One and its early hysteria settling down, there was one film which was slowly and assuredly making its date intact among the viewers and for more than one reason.
ROCKSTAR which released today on 11.11.11 was in many ways a film eagerly anticipated for I was totally sold on the idea of a Devdas meets Rockstar setting from its initial glimpses.
First things first, this post is dedicated to each & every member from A R Rahman Yahoo Fan Group which has been an integral part of my daily life for past years and even though this post maybe amateurish but had to finally write about a musical genius called A R Rahman whom I respect a lot and without which, music would not have been so life inspiring.
Rockstar was in news quite early when UTV was supposed to produce it with John Abraham as its lead, but neither did take off nor Imtiaz Ali was a hotshot director as he is today after Jab We Met and Love Aaj Kal. The only great feature being ARR would be music composer but that seemed uncertain after Pritam gave music to Ali’s earlier ventures, so this collaboration was awaited with bated breath just because of its theme which is Devdas meets Rockstar, Ranbir Kapoor as its main lead and expectations of a full blown musical.
