YAARIAN SONG COCKTAIL TV
We're also working with Star TV for their channel Life Ok and a few themes for one of their shows. After that will be an album with Saregama, reinventing 10 key songs from their catalogue of songs from the 30's and 40's. songs that I'd love to sing." They are working on their brand and logo and have roped in brand consultant Roshnee Desai for that ". I am very happy to sing songs for these composers, (have sung a few more that will be released soon), but quite happy to keep it limited to a few songs.
"However, I'm not really very keen to push that side of my career. He has also sung a couple of songs in Bengali (in fact the whole of Agnee has been involved in these songs) for composer Indraadip Dasgupta. Mohan has had the "good fortune" of being called to sing some "lovely" songs for friends and composers he admires - Khanabadosh from London Dreams for SEL, Naav (Udaan), Saaye (I Am) and Shikayatein (Lootera) for Amit Trivedi, Yaarian (Cocktail) for Pritam, Zindagi ka Karobaar (Inkaar) for Shantanu Moitra and Barbadi for Bobo (Amartya Rahut). But there were a few comments from music and film critics abroad about how they didn't understand a word but loved the song and guitar solo, so that was great." Abbas Tyrewala, who penned the lyrics, was magic with the words, he said. We also had a lot of people from all over the world going completely crazy over how Disney could even think of a Hindi rock song for the Avengers, and then of course they didn't take too much time to dislike the song either. However, it did come with its share of brickbats as well, he said. Mohan acknowledged that the song for Avengers definitely helped them a lot "with people abroad realizing that there was a band in India called Agnee (and these were mostly non-Indians, not Indians living abroad).". The shoot's pretty much done, and we're getting into final production for all the songs." "For Mango, we're doing music, and Aditya (key boardist) and Koco (lead guitarist) are acting in that as actors playing characters. "All the members of the band are in the movie, playing who we are in real life." About the two other films, he said Rockin Love is halfway in shoot and they are acting as themselves in the movie. The promotional song's work in progress, and we expect to have it ready by end of the month." In the songs, however, we're not necessarily sticking to the same thing, and we're treating each song for what it is meant to convey. You'll find a lot of sounds of rural India in the score. "The background score of the film, done by our music producer, Aditya Pushkarna, is very rustic and in line with the film's setting and visuals.Asked about Bakrapur, Mohan said, "The film itself is very different, right from the premise of the film to the way the story is presented, so the music and the lyrics also follow.".Agnee had beaten back the challenge of fellow country band Euphoria, and Pakistani rock outfits Strings' and Jal to compose and sing the soundtrack.And that was super fun," said Mohan, lead vocalist of the band which did the theme song Hello Andheron for the smash hit Marvels' superhero film Avengers in India release last year, told. We collaborated with Grammy winner and fantastic bass player Etienne Mbappe (from Cameroon) last year for a Punjabi song that we'll release soon. Besides, the Pune based band is working on three films- Bakrapur directed by Janaki Vishwanathan, which has an unusual protagonist- a goat named Shah Rukh, Mango by Abbas Tyrewala and Rockin Love by Deepak Tijori.
Popular Indian rock band, Agnee, is all set to release a Punjabi song soon for which they have collaborated with Grammy winner and bass player Etienne Mbappe from Cameroon.
