Farhan Akhtar who has helmed the director’s seat in Dil Chahta Hai, Lakshya and Don - The Chase Begins is debuting as an actor and singer in Rock On along with Prachi Desai. Others major casts of Rock On include Arjun Rampal, Luke Kenny and Purab Kohli. It’s directed by Abhishek Kapoor. The film is about four friends who put together a rock band called Magik, but never make it big. Many years later, they’re back together and start things where they left off.

Music of Rock On!! is composed by Shankar Ehsan Loy who are I think the best to do a film like this. I love the songs. And Farhan Akhtar is a surprisingly good singer too. I think you are gonna love this one, so ENJOY!!

Zindagi Tere Naam is director Ashu Trikha’s fourth film. It stars Mithun Chakrabarty, Ranjitha, Diya Mirza, Priyanka Mehta and Aseem Ali Khan. I think it was released some time this month. Music of ZTN is composed by Sajid Wajid. I feel like I’ve heard that first song, Tu Mujhe Soch Kabhi, before but can’t quite remember. It’s a nice song, probably nice song of the lot.

Mehbooba is the latest film by director/producer Afzal Khan starring Ajay Devgan, Manisha Koirala and Sanjay Dutt about the love triangle between the main characters. I’ve heard it is very 90s-like in terms of story and setting. Now I know the music is also in that category which doesn’t sit quite well with me.
