| Kasamh Se inspired by Kalyug!!!! | |
| Using Bollywood numbers in television shows is increasingly becoming a popular medium of promoting the song as well as an easy method of creating drama, easing tension or portraying a mood of celebration in shows. Thursday's episode of Zee's Kasamh Se used Kalyug's popular number, Judaa Hoke bhi to highlight the mood of Jay Walia who was trying to cope with the loss of his love! But surprisingly, the similarities don't end there! The song also has been picturised in a similar fashion. Dark brooding background and an overpowering landscape that was prominent in the original version has inspired the Balaji show as well. "Yes, the song went well with the mood of the character so we used it! I was inspired by the picturisation as well," says creative director Sandip Sikcand. Balaji serials have always had a filmy tune that's relevant to their shows. Kahiin to Hoga has Thoda Sa Pyar Hua Hai and even Kasamh Se has the song from Aksar, Soniye... and meri duniya hai...running through the show. Ekta had also incorporated some of the songs from Tusshar Kapoor's flicks in her shows, Kyunki...and Kahaani... With songs being an integral part of Bollywood, it seems that television too is looking to create some tunes of its own. The foundation has already been laid by the Rajashris' who are using original tracks in their recently launched show, Pyaar Ke Do Naam |
