Kis Kisko Pyar Karu (2015) End Scene Score

2015-12-16T02:02:00.000-08:00

Back after a long time but couldn't help posting this. Was watching Kapil Sharma's Kis Kisko Pyar Karu, a comedy about a guy who end's up in 3 marriages accidently and gos on to his fourth where it all falls apart at the wedding venue. What hit me was the sad score thar played in the background (at 2:04:25) as the protagonist related to his mother the circumstances in which he had to marry the first three times reasoning that he was not a player.

This song was actually Phuong Medley by Green Pastures. Check it out below

Krrish [2006] - Paycheck [2003]

2013-09-22T04:09:00.000-07:00

Krrish is a 2006 Indian science fiction superhero film directed, produced, and written by Rakesh Roshan, and starring Hrithik Roshan,Priyanka Chopra, Rekha and Naseeruddin Shah. It is the second film in the Krrish series, being the sequel to Koi... Mil Gaya, and relates the story of Krishna, the son of the previous film's protagonists, who inherits his father's superhuman abilities. After falling in love with Priya, he follows her to Singapore, where he takes on the persona of "Krrish" to keep his identity secret while saving children from a burning circus. From that moment on he is regarded as a superhero, and must later thwart the plans of the evil Dr. Siddhant.

Krrish was conceived to be a film of global significance and a trendsetter in Indian cinema, with visual effects on par with those from Hollywood. To that end, the effects team was aided by Hollywood's Marc Kolbe and Craig Mumma, and the stunts were choreographed by Chinese martial arts film expert Tony Ching. The music was composed by Rajesh Roshan, with the background score by Salim-Sulaiman. Filming was done to a large extent in Singapore as well as India. The film was released worldwide in June 2006 at a cost of over 45 crore (US$6.9 million) and on 1000 prints, both near-record amounts for an Indian film at the time.

Krrish received mixed reviews from critics in India, but was widely appreciated by audiences, who gave it a record opening week at the box office. The film became the second highest earning Indian film of 2006 and grossed a worldwide total of 117 crore (US$18 million). It was given a "blockbuster" rating by Box Office India.

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is a 1954 musical film directed by Stanley Donen, with music by Saul Chaplin and Gene de Paul, and lyrics by Johnny Mercer.
The script (by Albert Hackett, Frances Goodrich, and Dorothy Kingsley) is based on the short story "The Sobbin' Women", by Stephen Vincent Benét, which was based in turn on the Ancient Roman legend of The Rape of the Sabine Women.
The film was a 1954 Oscar nominee for Best Picture.
Seven Brides is particularly known for the unusual choreography by Michael Kidd, which makes dance numbers out of such mundane frontier pursuits as chopping wood and (most famously)[opinion] raising a barn.

West Side Story is an American musical with a book by Arthur Laurents, music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and conception and choreography by Jerome Robbins. It was inspired by William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet.
The story is set in the West 50s and West 60s of the Upper West Side neighborhood in New York City in the mid-1950s, an ethnic, blue-collar neighborhood. (In the early 1960s much of the neighborhood would be cleared in an urban renewal project for Lincoln Center, changing the neighborhood character.) The musical explores the rivalry between the Jets and the Sharks, two teenage street gangs of different ethnic backgrounds. The members of the Sharks from Puerto Rico are taunted by the Jets, a white working-class group.[3] The young protagonist, Tony, one of the Jets, falls in love with Maria, the sister of Bernardo, the leader of the Sharks. The dark theme, sophisticated music, extended dance scenes, and focus on social problems marked a turning point in American musical theatre. Bernstein's score for the musical includes "Something's Coming", "Maria", "America", "Somewhere", "Tonight", "Jet Song", "I Feel Pretty", "A Boy Like That", "One Hand, One Heart", "Gee, Officer Krupke", and "Cool".

Udayananu Tharam [2005] - Bowfinger [1999], Big Fat Liar [2002]

2012-08-18T15:27:00.001-07:00

Udayananu Tharam (English: Udayan Is the Star) is a 2005 Malayalam comedy film that presents the southern Indian film industry (especially Malayalam cinema) through a satirical viewpoint. It was written by Sreenivasan and directed by debutant Rosshan Andrrews. The film stars Mohanlal, Sreenivasan, Meena, Jagathy Sreekumar, and Mukesh in the lead roles. The financial and artistic crisis which plagued the once glittering Malayalam film industry at the turn of the 21st century lies at the center of the story. In the Hindi version, neither the original Malayalam film nor the writer/director were credited. However, the film's story seems to have been adapted from a mix of scripts from the 1999 film Bowfinger and the 2002 American comedy Big Fat Liar.
Roshan Andrews changed his name to Rosshan Andrrews as per his astrologer's suggestion to ensure the success of the film. The film was a blockbuster, and grossed 5.2 crores in two weeks from 41 screens in Kerala with a distributor's share of 1.38 crores. This was the biggest opening for any Malayalam film till then.

Original Song:

Los Kjarkas - Llorando se fue

Description: Los Kjarkas is a Bolivian band from the Capinota Province in the department of Cochabamba, one of the most popular Andean folk music bands in the country's history. An unauthorised translation of their song "Llorando se fue" by French producers Jean Karakos and Olivier Lorsac resulted in Kaoma's hit "Lambada". Don Omar's "Taboo" and Jennifer Lopez's single "On the Floor" also sample "Llorando se fue". After a successful lawsuit, Kaoma paid up and licensed the song. Kjarkas have also founded two schools teaching Andean folk music: the Musical School of Kjarkas (Lima, Peru) and La Fundación Kjarkas (Ecuador). They have toured across Japan, Europe, Scandinavia, the United States, South America and Australia and they have composed over 350 songs composed. Los Kjarkas are the most successful folk band from Bolivia.
The band's leader has always been singer, guitarist and songwriter Gonzalo Hermosa González, who formed the band with his brothers Elmer Hermosa González and Ulises Hermosa González, as well as Gastón Guardia Bilboa and Ramiro de la Zerda. De la Zerda left group to form Grupo Fortaleza and Ulises Hermosa died of cancer in 1992, being replaced by Eduardo Yáñez Loayza, Rolando Malpartida Porcel and José Luis Morales Rodríguez. By 2002, Japanese born Makoto Shishido, Lin Angulo, and Gonzalo Hermosa González junior had replaced Yáñez, Porcel, and Rodríguez. Makoto joined the band after seeing them play in Japan.
In the later 2000s, Elmer Hermosa was diagnosed with diabetes.
In 2010, Edwin Castellanos became mayor of the city of Cochabamba.
