Yash Chopra signs A R Rahman for new movie

Veteran filmmaker Yash Chopra has confirmed that he has signed two stalwarts of Bollywood for his forthcoming venture.

Music maestro, A R Rahman will provide the music score for the yet untitled movie, which will star Shah Rukh Khan. It will be the first time Yash Chopra and A R Rahman will come together for the huge project.

It will be after seven years, Yash Chopra will return to working behind the camera.

Speaking on this, Yash Chopra was effusive in his praise for the talented music director. “I am starting work on the music of my as yet untitled film with the very talented Rahman. Apart from the great honour that he has consistently brought to our country, he is also someone who has created some outstanding and memorable music, something which is very important and dear to me and my films. I am looking forward to creating some wonderful music combining Rahman’s contemporary world music sensibilities and my old world sensibilities of lilting melodies.”

A R Rahman, while speaking about working with Yashji for the first time said, “I am very excited to work with Yashji and I am humbled by his faith in me for his film. I have seen that Yashji always portrays music as the inevitable essence of love and divinity in his movies. I hope as a team we can bring tremendous joy to all.”

On the various conjectures about the cast for his movie, Yashji also said, “Everyone knows that when I make a movie, Shah Rukh will be involved with it. He is like family to YRF and I have always regarded him as one of my own. There will be two leading ladies in my film. Once Adi gives me the final draft of the script, I will finalize the two girls who will be cast along with Shah Rukh.”
