Look How Intelligence ARR Is...When I narrated the scene to Rahman, he said, âI can see a dove hereâ. I was taken aback. I had never mentioned Sonamâs dove to Rahman. How did he know about it?

He says it was not part of the original plan.âThe song was not really meant to be part of the narrative. I mean, who would think of putting in a song about a dove in a film like âDelhi-6â²? It just happened. When I came to the pre-climax portion of my script, I was stuck. I needed a continuity link taking the narrative to its finale,â Mehra told IANS. > Mehraâs much talked-about âDelhi-6â³ has a large cast including Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek, Sonam Kapoor and Gulshan Grover as well as a dove named Masakali who serves as the romantic leitmotif in the plot. > So crucial was the dove to the film that a whole song was written and composed in its honour. The song âMasakaliâ is sung by Mohit Chauhan whose voice A.R. Rahman had used in âRang De Basantiâ. > âWhen I narrated the scene to Rahman, he said, âI can see a dove hereâ. I was taken aback. I had never mentioned Sonamâs dove to Rahman. How did he know about it? Thatâs how the song âMasakaliâ was born,â said Mehra. > Mehra says the songs fit well in the plot of the movie. > âWhen Rahman and I did âRang De Basantiâ, we didnât think about anything except how well the songs and music fitted into the plot. The music of âDelhi-6â² is again designed only for the film. The dove song âMasakaliâ makes sense only within the parameters of our plot.â > > http://www.thaindia n.com/newsportal /entertainment/ dove-song- in-delhi- 6-was-not- planned-rakeysh- omprakash- mehra_100139601. html >
