MUMBAI: Indian rock band Agnee has composed the soundtrack for ‘Yeh Hai Bakrapur’, a small budget political satire directed by Janaki Vishwanathan.
The first song released was ‘Pair Anaadi’, a last minute addition to the original 2-song soundtrack. “We were only supposed to do two songs for the film. But we felt the need for a third song,” said K Mohan, lead vocalist with Agnee, shortly after its release on 10 April, when the first round of voting took place in the country.
The film has two more songs, one of which is a romantic track called ‘Pyaar Main Bakra’ which will be released this week, around the same time as the official music launch. The other song, titled ‘Om Shaanti Om’ will be released close to the release of the film. The vocals on ‘Pyaar Main Baakra’ are by K Mohan, while ‘Om Shaanti Om’ is sung by Keerthi Sagathia and penned by Panchhi Jalonvi.
