MUMBAI: After the success of Jalwa I and II, DJ Akbar Sami is all set with his new version of the theme. Jalwa 2008 will be launched under Times Music label in two months.
The album will have eight tracks, one original composed by Jatin Sharma and penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya. It will have the trademark ‘Dekho dekho yeh hai jalwa’ track and six other Bollywood remixes.
Times Music COO Adarsh Gupta says, “We produced Akbar’s Jalwa eight years ago and we reunite for his third one.”
The jockey overviews the scenario of DJ’ing and says that there were many versions of Jalwa in the past few years, but they went unnoticed. The reason, he points out, because of the overdose of remixes in the market. Hence, officially, this is my third Jalwa.”
