Sidharth Malhotra is keen to learn scuba diving

Sidharth Malhotra recently took a discovery course in Scuba diving while he was shooting for his upcoming film, Ek Villian in Mauritius.

Sidharth had to undergo training before he indulged in the extreme sport and since the shooting was on a tight schedule Sidharth took the most elementary course for diver’s.

However Sidharth loved the experience of being underwater. He loved to watch the marine life and corals so closely.

The entire aquatic experience intrigued him and he is keen to take a professional divers course and explore deep waters.

Sdiharth has been enquiring about various scuba diving courses since then. He would ideally remove time to do the basic swimming pool training in the city itself and then go for dives abroad.

He has actively been talking to people on courses and also where should he go for the dive.

Says Sidharth Malhotra “We shot underwater for a song in EK Villian. It was a fantastic experience!! They were the best 2 days in the Mauritius schedule. Im looking forward to be a certified schuba diver soon!”

Aashiqui -2 Music Composers Mithoon & Ankit Tiwari Team up again for Samrat & Co

Aashiqui -2 Music Composers Mithoon & Ankit Tiwari Team up again for Samrat & Co

Rajshri Productions known for their genre of family entertainment, is now gearing up for a new wave and an unexplored genre with Samrat& Co. Along with the film, the music is equally out of the box, different and entertaining, just like the banner’s previous films. Of course what you expect out of Rajshri, their melody and good music, dance numbers, romantic songs, is all there…but what you’ll witness in this one is a completely new avatar!

After winning accolades for their sound tracks in Aashiqui-2 the duo Mithoon & Ankit Tiwari are back with a body of work well sculpted for the Rajshri  Productions. The music launch of the film is scheduled to take place today in the Suburbs  breaks away from the traditional music which Rajshri is synonym for!

When quizzed the Samrat Rajeev Khandelwal about it, he said “As this is a true blue detective film, Kaushik Da was very firm about the fact the music/songs of the film have to be centered on the story of the movie, and not just be placed for the sake of it. The music is completely in sync with the premise, and they definitely take the story forward! I’m very happy that the hit combo of Aashiqui 2 are the forces behind Samrat’s music and they have done complete justice to the soundtrack!

The music plays an integral part of the film and at the same time it is not a song & dance film, there are two contrasting songs which have been composed by Ankit & a romantic track composed by Mithoon!

Mithoon who is quite elated to work with the Rajshri Productions said, “It has been an absolute pleasure working with Kavita ji and the banner. I have grown up watching their movies. When I got a call from Kavita ji, I was curious to find out how it would be working together but honestly, she's a great person and she gave a lot of space to me and waited for me to deliver since I had asked for a certain amount of time. Kaushikji on the other hand had researched all my work and was very meticulous in his approach. That made it easy for me to come up with the song as I base my songs on the characters. The song is called ‘Shukar Tera’, has been rendered in the lovely voices of Chinmayi and Arijit, very special to me as it originates from deep within. I'm looking forward to how listeners receive it and react to it.

Ankit who is quite excited to be part of this project said, “Firstly, it was my dream to work with Rajshri Productions,since ever. Working with Kaushikji and Kavita ji was great fun. I think Kaushikji is a very intelligent director jinke saath maine pehli baar kaam kiya hai. I believe that passion is a critical component of success….aur mujhe Kavita ji aur Kaushikji  dono mein hi wo passion dikha. I was given a clear and to the point brief that jo party songs Rajshri banata hai vo aapko nahi karna hai. The entire approach was that jo dhamaka Tequila mein hai utni hi rooh is song mein honi chahiye… a song which we can immortalize. The only person we thought of, who could sing and get the song to be a hit was again Shreya Goshal in her melodious voice”.

Releasing on 25^th April 2014, ‘Samrat & Co’. is produced by Kavita Barjatya under her family banner Rajshri Productions and is directed by Kaushik Ghatak.

ABOUT THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN

 2 ( www.facebook.com/spidermanmovieindia )

We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.

It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield).  For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone).  But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city.  With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.
