MUMBAI: After the success of Dabangg, music giant T-Series is all set to milk the festive season with the audio release of a series of projects to be launched within a span of two months. The music label has acquired the audio rights of Knock Out, Akroosh, Action Replay, My Love story and Golmaal 3.
The music of Knock Out which stars Sanjay Dutt, Kangana Ranaut and Irfaan Khan is slated to release on 20 October. The music for the film is scored by newbie Gourov Dasgupta. “The film stars one of the biggest rockstar, Sanjay Dutt who is a big crowd-puller. The title song of the film will be on air from 16 September,” informs T-Series president marketing media publishing (TV) Vinod Bhanushali.
Aakrosh teams up the hit pair of Pritam and Irshad Kamil. The audio of the film which stars Ajay Devgan, Bipasha Basu and Akshaye Khanna is set to be launched by the end of this week. Action Replay staring Akshay Kumar and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Golmaal 3 are set for October launch, music for both of which is given by hit-factory Pritam.
With earlier two sequels of Golmaal proving to be big hits, the music label is all geared up for the third edition of the film staring Ajay Devgan, Kareena Kapoor, Arshad Warsi and host of others. “It is a big project for us. The teaser campaign of the movie will air from 26 September where as the music is scheduled to release in the first week of October. We are still in the midst of devising the marketing plans and the media partners are still being locked. Once formulated the film will be promoted heavily across all mediums,” says Bhanushali.
T-Series has also acquired the audio rights of Reel Life Production Pvt Ltd’s â€?My Love story’ produced by Atul Agnihotri staring Salman Khan. Pritam is at the helm of musical affairs. The movie is the remake of the Malayalam superhit â€?Body Guard’. “Our relationship with Salman is more than just professional. We have the audio rights of almost 80 per cent of his films,” says Bhanushali. The film which is under production is slated for a next year release.
The music label will also release an album of well known Punjabi singer Harbhajan Mann on 20 September. “Unlike most regional albums which are released in particular pockets, this album will see country wide promotions”, concludes Bhanushali.
