rockymeranaam ji, No that is a wrong assumption about me. You do need time to know me and I am sure you will get to know me soon.

Himesh dons a new cap

In a bid to change the face of music in the country, Reshammiya intends opening music schools

Himesh Reshammiya has yet another ace up his sleeve. The singer will be opening his own music schools all over the country.

Confirming the news, Himesh says, "I'm opening a hi-tech music school to be called Himesh Reshammiya School Of Music all over the country, starting from Mumbai, Delhi, Madras and Kolkata. There will be two centers in each town. It's a very huge project. The interiors will be done by Italian architects who are being roped in for their expertise. I want to change the face of music schools in this country."

With this school, Himesh wants to make music accessible to the young and old in terms with what they are comfortable with. "So far we have had music schools associated with guru shishya. With my school I intend to do away with make the process of music learning friendly rather than forbidding," says Himesh.

Himesh wants both the amateur and the professional musician to have an equal place in the school. "The important thing is to get people interested in music as a career option. The students could range from six to 60, but the bottom line is that I want music to be made both fun and meditative. Music schools in our country are dingy and depressive. I want this school to become like shopping mall or a multiplex where people can relax."

After his extension plans in the country, Himesh intends to open schools outside India too. "In Phase 2 we will take it to the non-metro centers. I intend developing a syllabus which incorporates different genres of music. My school will endeavour to bring forth the best talent to the film industry. I want to bridge the gap between trained classic musicians and popular cinema."

Excited at the prospect of encouraging new talent, Himesh says, "I guess it's payback time for me. Whatever I've gained from music I want to pass on to the young generations. I had such little guidance when I was starting out. Now I want youngsters to get the opportunities I didn't."

I said that because AR Rahman and RD Burman are basically beat oriented musicians...

Ek baar aaja aaja...

Himesh is on the hunt for heroines for his debut film. We ask our actresses if they are willing

Ram Kamal Mukherjee

Himesh Reshammiya has launched himself as an actor in London. And announced that he wants to sign three actresses to act with him in his film Aap Ka Suroor–The Movie, The Real Love Story. We asked around to check if our actresses are ready to snap up the roles… and the chance to sing and dance with Himeshbhai. Well, most of them declined, very very politely. Except Bobby Darling, that is. Bobby wants to play a double role in Himesh's film. Now, does this narrow down his search to one?


• Ishaa Koppikar
I would not like to comment on this. I'm sure he will make a good film. All the best to him
Our take: After Shah Rukh Khan hogged all the limelight in Don, I don't want to work in another film where the male lead plans to steal all the show.

• Preity Zinta
I think it's a very silly question. I'd only act in a film which will have a good character and script. I think Himesh is a very successful singer and I wish him loads of luck.
Our take: Himeshbhai? After sharing screen space with the biggest Khans?

• Amrita Arora
I would love to work with Himesh because that would assure one thing… I will get a hit song.
Our take: More importantly, it would also assure a hit film, something which hasn't yet featured on my CV so far...

• Raima Sen
There has been a popular trend in Bollywood to launch playback singers as actors. As far as acting with Himesh is concerned, well, umm, let's say I'd only agree if the role is really, really great.
Our take: "Knowing that really, really great roles paana mushkil toh kya, namumkin hai."

• Raveena Tandon
I think he is looking for young actors to play female leads, so that keeps me out from the list.
Our take: Phew! I'm out of the race.

• Bobby Darling
I would want to play a double role in Himesh's film. I would also like to wear the cap he sports. I think he is fantastic singer and he will become a very good actor.
Our take: It's certainly a far better deal than playing self-deprecating cameos and doing reality TV shows

• Koena Mitra
Singer, performer and now an actor… The world will be watching him. I wish him all the best, but I would rather dance to his music at a night club than dance around trees with him.
Our take: I would even play a tree to get noticed in his mega-film, but who wants to confess…

Bollywood News:

I am not in love with Himesh Reshammiya: Tulsi Kumar


Posted by: BollywoodBabe :: on Saturday, August 26, 2006 - 10:31 AM :: 72 Reads

In Orlando for a triumphant Aap Ka Suroor concert, Himesh Reshammiya is aghast by a story (in DNA) that he's involved with T Series - baron Bhooshan Kumar's sister Tulsi Kumar.

"What nonsense is this!" Himesh bursts out. "Tulsi is like my sister. I've met her just three times for the three recordings she has done with me. I don't even have her cell number. Whoever has started this rumour has a very sick mind. It's cheap and embarrassing. I'm very close to the whole T Series family. Bhooshan Kumar is like my brother and his sister is like my sister."

While Himesh is enjoying unprecedented success on his world concerts, the unsavoury rumours keep reaching his ears. "But this one about Tulsi and me is the limit. But I'm getting used to the back-biting."

About the rumour that Himesh is charging an exorbitant royalty for his ring-tone, Himesh explains, "It varies from project to project. I don't have a fixed fee. The terms and conditions differ according to the projects. It depends from producer to producer and music company to company. I try to make sure everyone earn from my music."
Himesh has eight more concerts in the US and Canada. "Up till now my concerts have broken all previous records for all Indian shows from Bollywood. There hasn't been a single show in the US that has gone anything but full. I still have to perform in Chicago, Ohio, LA, Boston, New York and Washington.

The one-to-one interaction with the fans has been an emotional journey for me. The fact that audience members from the age of 6 to 60 at every venue have gotten up and danced for the finale, is unheard-of. And in spite of security hazards we've at least 19-20 youngsters joining us on stage to sing and dance."

Himesh's most popular song in the US? "Undoubtedly Jhalak dikhla jaa…I believe Sony tv's new dance show has been named after my song."

Himesh isn't sure whether it's a copyright infringement. "When I come back I'll definitely look into it. Jhalak dikhla jaa is the biggest song of my career."

Himesh returns to India on 3 September.
