Sallu makes YRF swing to his tune
Unhappy with a song in Ek Tha Tiger, Salman calls up Adi Chopra at 2am, gets friends Sajid-Wajid to rework the tune to his liking
Salman Khan, who never read scripts and went with his 'instinct' has started reading scripts. The actor, who was known for doing films as favours to his friends has started looking at each an every detail personally. And the latest victim to his 'eye (or rather ear) for detail' seems to be the music composer of Yash Raj Films' Ek Tha Tiger. Reportedly, Sohail Sen's composition of a song in the Kabir Khan film failed to please its lead actor Khan, who immediately called up YRF scion Aditya Chopra and got his favourite musician duo Sajid-Wajid on board.
According to a source close to the film, Khan found a particular song composed by the young 27-year-old Sen rather 'thanda'. The actor in fact, refused to shoot for it until the number was changed. "He did not have any issues with the lyrics. He just wanted the song to have more beats. He wanted it to be catchy," revealed the source.
Prior to Ek Tha Tiger, Sen had composed music for Mere Brother Ki Dulhan and What's Your Rashee, produced by Aditya's close friend Karan Johar. Reportedly, on hearing the song, Khan immediately called up Aditya Chopra. "He called Adi in the middle of the night. It was past 2 am," informed the source.
As a result of this late night conversation, Sajid-Wajid were called to tweak the beats of the song in question. Khan, who had worked with the composer duo in many films, was the one to recommend their name to Adi, revealed our source.
This is the first time Sajid-Wajid have worked with YRF. "It was a hush-hush job. Sajid-Wajid composed the beats for the song quickly. They re-recorded the song in record time. And Salman approved of it," revealed an eye-witness from the Yash Raj studio, where the track was re-recorded.
Salman, who liked all the other songs composed by Sen in the film, reportedly, did not want one number to spoil the entire album. And thus, the song was re-recorded.
When contacted, Sen said that he was the one composing all songs for Ek Tha Tiger. "These are rumours. Yes, Salman did have an issue. But that was not with the tunes. He has a problem with the lyrics of a certain a song. Sajid-Wajid are not associated with Ek Tha Tiger," said Sen.
A very close friend of Sajid-Wajid however, maintained that the composer duo were asked to add to the music of Ek Tha Tiger. "The entire thing was done secretly. They might not be given credits for it. And they are perfectly fine with it. They are very close to Salman and they will do anything for him," added the friend. Kabir Khan remained unavailable for comment.
