Music is one of the most defining parts of a romantic movie. Though I planned to work on music with another group; somehow it didn’t materialized and quite luckily I met Aditya.
I had worked with Chandrasekar in past and we share quite a rapport. With Aditya in loop we started working on the music. The lyrics were not great as I am not much into poetry. However, Aditya got the chords right. Sohum perfectly complemented him and Chandru mixed the parts well.
The first song is ‘Every Morning Every Day’. This number defines Deep’s love for Ada and his reluctance to profess it in front of his beloved. “Crooning this number would be difficult,” Aditya commented. Though the first draft came up pretty well, a lot has to be worked upon to make it near perfect…
The basic theme of the second song ‘In Your Arms’ is prepared. We gotta work hard this weekend to get it done.
We have Deep but we are still searching for our Ada. The girl, who initially said yes, chickened out at the last moment. Man, you can’t understand girls. Had I knew that I will have so much trouble finding a girl for my movie, I would have worked on an all-men story… may be on the lines of Brokeback Mountain… may be a gangster movie with lots of politics in backdrop… Had I knew…
When the girl we initially selected said no, I was literally boiling. I was really very unhappy because she took quite some time just to say no and the search had to start from scratch. I seriously hope that we can convince someone doing this role.
Ada is a beautiful character. Her love for Deep is totally different from the way Deep loves her. While Deep is like the firefly that doesn’t think twice before coming close to fire, Ada is like the wick of the lamp which is burning and her only solace is love. Their existence depends on how they finish themselves.
Working in such independent efforts can be draining but then you will have something to remember even after marriage and having kids. I am writing this all… may be someday my kid would love to read these posts…
Till next updates… Signing Off…
Love…
