Assamese musician returns to Telugu filmdom
"I was recommended to him (Krishnamsetty) by Resul Pookutty (Oscar-winning sound artiste) who had loved my work on Margarita with a Straw and the Pride series " Joi told IANS.
He has composed five songs for the forthcoming film.
"A heavy rock track will be launched today (Wednesday) which I have sung. It is in Hindi " he said.
The rest of the four songs are in Telugu and sung by different singers.
"I had a very good experience. They understand things really well give you a lot of freedom and have great perception of what is and what can be " he said.
Language wasn t a barrier for him this time.
"Back then ( Kalavar King ) was my first time. It was tougher because I had to sing in that language the sound of which was different from anything I knew. But to work with the people from there has always been a pleasure " he said.
Meanwhile he is being lauded for his music in the film "Laila Majnu".
Talking about the two versions of the film s hit song "O meri Laila" -- one sung by Atif Aslam and the other by Joi -- he said: "They come at different points in the movie. Mine is the beginning of romance so it s raw. Atif s is the climax. The hooks are a little different."
He is currently enjoying the variety of music that he is getting to compose and produce. "I feel lucky and good " he said.
