Veteran and lilting music composer of yesteryear Pyarelal one of the closest duo of late Lakshmikanth feels OSO team gave him a raw deal
The immensely talented composer Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma of the famous music-director duo Laxmikant-Pyarelal is pretty pissed off with the music industry these days. The man behind the music of classics like ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram‘ and ‘Ek Duje Ke Liye‘ feels like he‘s been given the short, sharp end of the stick.
Well, it all started when the scoop picked up scent of how the composor was called on by Farah Khan and Vishal-Shekhar to collaborate on the score for their Diwali dhamaka ‘Om Shanti Om‘. After all, it was Laxmikant-Pyarelal who had given the hit music for ‘Karz‘, the inspiration behind OSO, way back in 1980.
So when ‘Dard-E-Dil‘ was changed to ‘Dard-E-Disco‘, the nation might‘ve loved every move and groove, but Pyarelal was not at all impressed! After all his hard work, there was no mention of his contribution in any of the film‘s promotion and publicity. Not even in any of the credits for the songs in the album‘s CDs when in fact, he had been asked to compose three songs, including the theme music for ‘Om Shanti Om.‘
First, Farah and SRK miffed veteran actor Manoj Kumar making fun of him in the film. When he went with his complaints to the media, they were forced to extend the olive branch. Mr Bharat cooled down, only after a series of apologies from SRK and Farah‘s side!
Now, ‘team OSO-is that the way to treat industry veterans’? Someday you guys will be all old and wrinkled, and then it‘ll be you getting the shaft -ever thought of that? Time flies pretty fast and the day isn‘t that far either!
