AR Rahman held Irshad Kamil hostage until he wrote lines for Amar Singh Chamkila’s romantic track ‘Tu Kya Jaane’

In the magical time of night, where creativity flows freely, stories of inspiration come to life. One such incident emerges from the meeting between lyricist Irshad Kamil and composer extraordinaire AR Rahman, shedding light on the birth of the soul-stirring track ‘Tu Kya Jaane’ for Imtiaz Ali’s latest film, Amar Singh Chamkila.

In a conversation with CNN News18, Irshad reminisced about the incident, narrating, “We had initially settled on a different song prior to ‘Tu Kya Jaane’. However, after some discussions, we realized it wasn’t suitable for the scene. That’s when Rahman composed ‘Tu Kya Jaane’. But the backstory is quite amusing. I had visited him for another matter, and it was already past midnight. He insisted I wait, saying, ‘I won’t let you leave until you give me a line or two for the new song’.”

Irshad Kamil stated in the interview that since it was already 2 am. He said “Dimaag nahin chal raha (My brain is not working).” But Rahman kept going, showing strong passion of art and he told Irshad, “I’m not listening to you. You sit here and give me just one line.” While sitting there, Irshad quickly thought of two or three lines for Rahman, who then credited him for composing the song in seven minutes.

As Amar Singh Chamkila is gracing screen with its lyrical tapestry, audiences are reminded of the things that make art great. Through the anecdotes of Irshad Kamil and AR Rahman, we are invited to think about the mysteries of inspiration, and creativity.

Bombay High Court denies interim relief to Sholay director Ramesh Sippy in property dispute

The Bombay High Court rejected filmmaker Ramesh Sippy’s request for a court-appointed receiver in an ongoing property dispute. The dispute centres on the inheritance of assets belonging to Sippy’s late parents [Ramesh Sippy v. Sunhil Sippy & Ors.].

According to a report by Bar and Bench, the Sholay director had filed an interim plea seeking the appointment of a court receiver. This receiver would have taken temporary control of a flat and 27 cinematograph films, which Sippy claimed fell intestate (without a will) upon his parents’ passing.

The filmmaker further contended that Sippy Films Pvt. Ltd. and its directors were illegally utilising these assets. However, Justice Manish Pitale, presiding over the case, found insufficient evidence from Sippy to support his concerns about the defendant disposing of the flat. Additionally, the court noted that the legal heirs of Sippy’s siblings, along with the company itself, had been asserting ownership rights over the 27 films for a substantial period.

The judge further stated, “Apart from this, the stand taken (by Sippy) in the present suit, appears to be different from the assertions made in the earlier proceedings initiated by Sippy. Therefore, he has failed to make out a prima facie case in his favour.”

The veteran filmmaker’s request for a court receiver stemmed from a larger lawsuit seeking a declaration of his share in his deceased parents’ estate among the surviving legal heirs. He claimed to be the sole surviving child.

Filed in 2023, the lawsuit argues that the properties of his parents should be distributed between him and the legal heirs of his siblings. Sippy seeks a one-fifth share of the estate, including a flat in south Mumbai, 500 shares of Sippy Films Pvt. Ltd., and rights to 27 films produced by the company.

Advocate Shanay Shah, representing Ramesh Sippy, was briefed by Bachubhai Munim & Co. Advocates Archit Jayakar, Pooja Yadav, and Parita Mashruwala, representing the Sippy Films company and directors, were briefed by Jayakar & Partners.

The case is ongoing, and further developments are expected.
