OST Time

It's OST day again.

Anyone who knows me for a while now is probably aware of my love for movie themes and this desire in me to compose an OST one day. And one day, I will. I have already gotten my cousin to sign me up for the movie he plans to produce and direct some time. He is an investment banker right now and I am an IT consultant. So what? :)

So I have been listening to OSTs the whole day. And as I type, I am listening to the amazing 'Warriors of Heaven & Earth' soundtrack - composed by none other than A R Rahman! This Chinese production features a rather unique song called Warriors in Peace, sung in Hindi by Sadhana Sargam. For the most part of the afternoon however, I was listening to Hans Zimmer's compositions - Mogadishu Blues and Hunger for Black Hawk Down.

A colleague forwarded me a set of photographs today - taken from behind our office last Tuesday - the day of the deadly deluge in Mumbai. Someone (please do let me know if it's you) else clicked the pics and sent it to her. I wish I had taken my camera that day.

It's funny how you can work with someone halfway around the world and never know you share similar interests! I am envious that your cousin is an investment banker - that should give him great leverage in putting together a financing package for his films!

Perhaps you and I can work together as well? I look forward to hearing some of your compositions.
