"BEAUTY QUEEN":
A Dream Come True!
Annu Malik is on Cloud Nine after bagging Bollywood's dream
project, Dev Anand's latest "BEAUTY
QUEEN"! "It's a dream come true" exulted
an elated Annu.
"Working for Devsaab's Navketan is an achievement in itself. It's
like reaching the summit of Everest!" Annu now hopes to come up
with a score that will be equally heady and make music fans catch
their breath. "If Beauty is Queen, then Melody is King!" he said.
"As a kid, I remember my dad humming Dev Saab's tunes. They sound
as fresh today as they did 40 years ago! It's amazing!"
Annu confessed that it was a bit intimidating to follow in the
footsteps of giants like S.D. Burman, Jaidev, and R.D. Burman.
"They are big shoes to fill" he said. "But they're also my biggest
inspiration!" Dev said "BEAUTY
QUEEN" would try to recapture the age of romance
and innocence that once graced the silver screen. "Navketan has
always stood for the modern as well as the traditional. Our reputation
of being trend-setters is unmatched in excellence."
"Dev Saab is still the happiest guy around!" chimed Annu. "Like
Ravishankar, he's a legend that defines his time. His concept
of "BEAUTY
QUEEN" promises to light up our lives. See
and hear it for yourselves."
Concluded Dev Saab: "Music is a divine art. The prophets and poets
call it Shiza-e-rooh, or food for the soul. We hope "BEAUTY
QUEEN" will provide a rare treat for film and
music fans." If music be the food of life, Dev Saab, play on Annu…
