Amar Singh Chamkila: First song 'Ishq Mitaye' from Diljit-Parineeti starrer out now

29 Feb 2024

Amar Singh Chamkila' starring Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra on Thursday, unveiled the film's first track 'Ishq Mitaye'.Taking to Instagram, Saregama India shared the song that they captioned, "Mere agge duniya ka rang saara fikka, Apne lahu se hi lagaaya maine tikka..MAIN HOON PANJAB!"Composed by AR Rahman, the song is penned by Irshad Kamil and sung by Mohit Chauhan.The song features the lead cast of the film, Diljit and Parineeti.'Amar Singh Chamkila' presents the untold true story of Punjab's original rockstar of the masses, Amar Singh Chamkila, who emerged from the shadows of poverty and rose to the heights of popularity in the 80s due to the sheer power of his music, angering many along the way, which finally led to his assassination at the young age of 27.Talking about the song, A.R. Rahman said in a statement from the PR team, "When you make a story about a musician from Punjab, in such a musically rich state of India, it's always something special. So, Imtiaz and I decided to give our take on the storytelling musical and give it a twist, like a Broadway musical in certain parts. I loved how Imtiaz reinvented himself in the story. Working with Diljit was a pleasure; he is humble yet has a very colorful personality, and I love his growth as a musician, an artist, and an actor, and working with Parineeti Chopra as a singer was also really enjoyable. She was such a delight to work with. And of course, our amazing Irshad Kamil always comes with great lyrics. It is great to be a part of this project."Director Imtiaz Ali said, "It was very exciting to see Rahman sir dive into the heart of Panjabi music in Chamkila. We could not find a better muse to explore the vivacious and heart-wrenching landscape of Panjabi music than Amar Singh Chamkila, the highest record-selling artist of Panjab. It was fascinating to use some traditional musical styles and instruments in the album of Chamkila which have not been used for a long time. Also, there was no better person than Irshad Kamil to bring out the traditional strength of Panjabi boli in a contemporary style for this musical album. Based on the lives of the musical duo, Chamkila and Amarjot, the film always promised interesting music but casting Diljit and Parineeti enabled us to record many tracks live on location. We are very excited to see this album going to its audience worldwide."'Amar Singh Chamkila' is all set to stream on the OTT platform Netflix from April 12.

Mohit Chauhan asked to repay half a million US dollars over breach of contract

22 Jul 2016

Renowned playback singer Mohit Chauhan who was supposed to perform in US has now been caught in a legal controversy with a US based event management company who has accused him of breach of contract. The company, ProMarcom Inc has allegedly demanded a sum of half a million US dollars (approx. Rs. 3.18 cr) as compensation after he was accused of cancelling concerts thrice.

An official from ProMarcom, Padma Tanniru revealed that the concert was postponed thrice, once in June 2015 after Mohit stated that he doesn't have a band of his own which he apparently did not inform them while signing the contract. The concert was pushed to September but then Mohit informed that one of his band members was suffering from dengue while the other was facing trouble in paperwork, hence the concert was finalized in November. However, right before the team boarded the flight to US in November, Tanniru mentioned that Mohit's wife and manager Prarthana demanded a hike in daily allowance and also for the copy of the contract. While Tanniru claimed that she assured that these conditions will be taken care of when the team arrives in the U.S, she added that Prarthana refused to budge and hence they had to cancel the concert, thereby incurring a loss of Rs. 48 lakhs which was paid to Mohit as the performance fee. The past nine months, according to Padma, have been spent in trying to establish contact with Mohit whom she alleged that is not responding to their calls or messages On the other hand, Mohit Chauhan's team has been maintaining that these are false allegations made with an intention to malign the singer's image in public and also, that they did abide by the contract but it was the company which failed to fulfill the terms. They further accused them for suffering losses because they couldn't accommodate any other concerts due to this.

Mohit Chauhan flies down to Delhi just to vote

9 Dec 2013

Rockstar's ace-crooner Mohit Chauhan has just given the most successful live concert in the history of Nepal.

And just when he could sit tight on his laurels, Mohit did what very few citizens do to keep Indian democracy from falling apart. On Wednesday morning he flew down from Mumbai to Delhi, the city where he is a registered voter, to cast his vote. And then flew back to Mumbai immediately after.

Says Mohit, "I have to say I feel like a proud Indian today. It's the least I could do. I flew down to Delhi on Wednesday morning just for a few hours to cast my vote. I firmly believe the way forward for our nation is to have a robust democracy. The one sure way of participating in the process of nation-building is to vote on elections day." Another very proud moment for Mohit occurred when on November 30, Mohit performed at a live concert in Kathmandu for the Nepalese Army Wives Association where a record number of people from all over Nepal turned up to hear him sing.

Says Mohit, "The Nepalese press called it the most successful international gig ever in Nepal. Over 35,000 people turned up for my show from all over Nepal. The locals drove for as much as 10 hours from the countryside to get to the venue." Mohit with chartbusters in Rockstar, Barfi, Shudh Desi Romance and a host of other front-runners at the box office is busy balancing out a career in playback singing and live concerts.

Says Mohit, "I've been recording regularly. But I've also been very busy with my ambassadorship as a World Music Champion for the British Council. In addition I've been touring the country from Himachal Pradesh to Sikkim to promote music amongst children." Amidst all this work, Mohit also needs to make time for his wife Prarthana Gehlot whom he married in July 2012.

Says Mohit, "Marriage is definitely a very comforting feeling. I didn't take the plunge for a long time. Now I am glad I did. I now have someone to share my thoughts and my creative ideas with. Most importantly I now have someone to come back home to in Mumbai. It's a love-cum-arranged marriage. Prarthana and I have known each for some years. She was my friend, and then we thought we should take our friendship to another level.

Zindagi mein bahot dost milte hain. Some turn out to be extra-special. And if you're lucky one of them turns out to be the one you want to spend your life with. The vibration between the two of us is wonderful. With Prarthana I felt she was not just a friend but also someone who contributed substantially to my singing."
