Mumbai Salsa is a funny look at the fast emerging dysfunctional relationships that exists within the young corporate India. There was a time when an average Indian was laid back, content and with plenty of time for love, life & relationships. But the economic liberalization, foreign investments, BPOs etc changed all that. An average Indian does not have time for love life or relationships and romances do not blossom in parks anymore. In fact an average Indian spends more time in pubs and night clubs apart from offices and home. Mumbai Salsa is one such pub in Mumbai, where the lives of our principal characters change forever.
Virdas plays Rajeev Sharma. An advertising executive, Rajeev is a hopeless romantic but none of his relationships last. He is come about being really confused about women. Now, finally it seems that he has met the woman of his dreams…. But will the dream shatter?
Indraneil SenGupta plays Karan. A merchant banker Karan is the epitome of deviousness. For Karan women are just to have fun with. No serious commitments for him…. But will that change?
Dilip Thadeshwar plays Subramanium. Also works in the same Advertising agency as Rajeev. Subbu as he is better known is a traditionalist. He is conservative to the core. He hates everything that is progressive especially in the lifestyle department…. But it seems his outlook is in for a big jolt.
Raymond Irani plays Shahji. He is a gym instructor. He is more brawn than brain. He likes to have a good time but for him it takes a while for the penny to drop. It seems he is going to meet his match in the libido department.
Manjari Fadnis play Maya. Maya works as the head of the Human Resources department of a leading Bank. Maya is Miss proper. For her, everything has to be perfect. And she also seeks a similar perfection in love. But we all know that love knows no perfection. Will Maya understand this?
Amruta Khanvilkar plays Neha. She owns a beauty and tattoo parlor. She loves the good life and especially the good sex life. She calls herself hyper sexual. She secretly desires the permanence of love but for that she will have to face the ghosts for her past.
Linda Arsenio plays Pamella. Pamella is an expatriate who works in the same Advertising firm as Rajeev. She loves India and everything Indian. For her the final sign of acceptance in this country is to find love here. Will she?
Neelam Chauhan plays Xenobia. She owns a Salsa class and also teaches there. She comes from a broken home and has always wanted to feel like she belonged to someone. She knows that true love will give her that feeling of security that she desires. Will she find true love? Producer Amita Bishnoi Surendra Sharma Bhagwanti Gabrani Director Manoj Tyagi

Now this one has arrived almost 'chupke se'! While most other biggies featuring the top bracketed actors/film makers make a lot of noise (sometimes deserving, sometimes not so deserving) for both the movie and the music release, Aamir Khan's Taare Zameen Par has silently arrived in a subtle manner, just like the simplicity the movie itself conveys. With Prasoon Joshi doing the lyrics, one expects a sensitive outing ahead. From Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, who have enjoyed a great 2007 so far, one expects nothing but a high quality score in Taare Zameen Par.
Remember the tinkle sound in 'Meri Duniya Tu Hi Re' [Heyy Babyy]? Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy take a cue from the same sound to carry forward the title song 'Taare Zameen Par'. To the credit of the composer trio, Shankar Mahadevan who takes the onus on himself to come behind the mike and supporting vocals of Bugs Bhargava, Dominique Cerejo, Vivinenne Pocha that the song turns out to be a heartwarming outing.
It is a difficult song to create due to various reasons. a) It is slow moving which means that beats cannot camouflage/overtake the melodious intent of the song, b) It requires a singer of high caliber to croon since the focus is entirely on voice due to hardly any instruments being in the background, c) Prasoon Joshi's lyrics follow a poetic route which means double the effort for the composers to think innovatively. Still, the end product is such that even if it won't be sung aloud by a man on the street (that was never an intent to begin with), Taare Zameen Par would make for an emotional cinematic viewing.
Singer Raman Mahadevan builds on the melodious feel of the album with 'Kholo Kholo' which is about opening up the world around you and breathing all the air in the beautiful surroundings. Very urban and belonging to soft-rock, 'Kholo Kholo' has a guitar as it's base instrument which works wonders with Raman's smooth vocals. A.R. Rahman and Gulzar saab would definitely approve the kind of great job that Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and Prasoon Joshi do. Even better than the title song, 'Kholo Kholo' is number that you would love to hear in isolation in a repeat mode!
Aamir Khan begins 'Bum Bum Bole' with some funny sounding gibberish which is meant to appeal to the kids due to it's playful setting. A track which appears to be created for a setting where Aamir Khan interacts with number of kids in the school and makes all of them play with each other, 'Bum Bole Bole' takes a rhythmic mood. Different in style when compared to the first two tracks in the album, this Shaan sung track should appeal to children due to it's situational setting.
It's the sound of an alarm which opens 'Jame Raho', a song that takes a listener through the journey of a student from waking up in the morning to going to school to studying hard and achieving success. Boasting of a rock setting, the song is such that it could easily have fit into the mold of a sports anthem number as much as an inspiration for the soldiers on the border!
Crooned quote well by Vishal Dadlani, who seems to have become almost a regular with Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy for singing at least one song for most albums for them, 'Jame Raho' is an entertaining number which mixes some English words with primarily Hindi lyrics.
10 singers (yes, 10 singers) come together for 'Bheja Kum', a two minute rock track which starts with the words 'Idiot, why can't you'. A spoof on the kind of scolding that children get on scoring less marks in exams, 'Bheja Kum' has a big team of Shankar Mahadevan, Bugs Bhargava, Shankar Sachdev, Raaj Gopal Iyer, Ravi Khanwilker, Loy Mendonsa, Amole Gupte, Kiran Rao, Aamir Khan and Ram Madhvani coming together to sing a line or two (in case just speak a few words) to showcase (albeit in a lighter vein) the kind of tension that a kid goes through!
With 'Maa', Shankar Mahadevan gives himself another good solo after the title song 'Taare Zameen Par'. A serene number which just like the title song depends entirely on the singing and the basic composition instead of arrangements added on in the recording studio, 'Maa' is a heartfelt track about a child looking at sharing with his mother his fears, shortcomings and affection for the ones close to him. With the most simple and yet effective lyrics heard in the album so far, 'Maa' is another superb piece of work after 'Taare Zameen Par' and 'Kholo Kholo'.
Guest composer Shailendra Barve makes his presence felt with his only track 'Mera Jahan'. Rendered superbly by children Auriel Cordo and Ananya Wadkar who, after their English rendition, set the base for Adnan Sami to take over the proceedings, Mera Jahan' reaches it's crescendo the moment title words appear in the song. Musically the song carries a similar rock style as 'Bheegi Bheegi Si' [Gangster] and if you have liked the numbers heard in 'Life In A..Metro', it would be hard to ignore 'Mera Jahan'.
Amole Gupte, Creative Director of Taare Zameen Par, has the last word with his piano composition for 'Ishaan's Theme' bringing the album to an end. A four minute long musical piece which boasts of international standards and carries a pensive feel to it, 'Ishaan's Theme' belongs to the kind that you hear in 5-Star hotel lobbies. Smooth, serene and infectious, this sound of piano is just the right finale for an impressive soundtrack of Taare Zameen Par.
The moment one is through with the album, the first thought which crosses the mind is that of 'Aah, thank goodness no remixes'! Aamir Khan, Shankar, Ehsaan, Loy and Prasoon Joshi make a zero compromise album which stays honest to the film's theme and bring in as much variety as one possibly can in the music for a film belonging to a genre different from regular romance, action or drama. No item song, no 'pyaar-mohabbat' saga and moreover nothing which becomes preachy, Taare Zameen Par boasts of a soundtrack that stays true to the film's spirit and promises to thoroughly involve a viewer while the music is on in theaters.

Chak De India Synopsis: Kabir Khan (Shahrukh Khan) knows what it's like to come back from the dead. The ex Indian Captain has now come back in the avatar of the Coach of the Indian Women's National Hockey team. A team that exists more on paper and less in reality.
The team is a rag-tag bunch of girls with their own agenda. A bunch of girls who have forgotten what it is like to play for the love of the game. Of playing because you want glory for your country. Not because you want a pensioned job or a government flat. They have all forgotten the sharp thrill of just holding the hockey stick, keeping their eyes on the ball and playing for all they are worth. They have played every game but hockey to make sure they get selected every year in the Indian National team. But what does it really mean to play for the Indian National team? To play for India?
Mujhe sirf ek mulk ka naam sunaai deta hai - India
The girls have never known the thrilling energy of being Team India. Of giving their all to see their country's name on a trophy. But Kabir Khan, once a captain, now forgotten, does. He knows what it takes to get there. And what it means to return empty handed. This time, he wants to make sure that it's different. He knows there are no second chances. Despite his past, he believes that if only the girls played as one, anything would be possible.
Because Kabir Khan believes that it is not that we can't win. It's just that we have never believed we can.
Chak De India is the story of a coach's fight of making his team, Team India by overcoming their diverse backgrounds, by learning to use everything that life hurls on them as a secret weapon. It's a story about honesty, sincerity and integrity. A story to remind the nation of its national sport.
