MUMBAI: One time copywriter, producer and director Girish Patel, for his debut film Enter The Showman has picked up music maestros like Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia, Ustad Zakir Hussain, Pandit Jasraj and singer Shaan and Sunidi Chauhan to star in the film.
We are trying to experiment with a new idea by mixing the rich classical tradition of Indian music with the modern,” said Patel in a report.
Enter The Showman deals with the lives of people who come to make it big in Bollywood but at a later stage end up doing something else.
The film has music by Uttam Singh and will have Chaurasia playing the flute, Hussain the tabla and Jasraj lending classical vocals while Shaan and Sunidhi will croon.
The shooting of the film, which has already begun, will go on till December.
