Riteish
Deshmukh
agrees
that
the
music
of
his
Cash
was
fantabulous.
However,
he
feels
that
De
Taali,
his
upcoming
release,
brings
in
a
lot
more
variety
in
its
soundtrack.
"Vishal-Shekhar
came
up
with
a
rocking
score
in
Cash,
no
doubt
about
that",
says
Riteish
Deshmukh,
"In
fact
if
the
movie
would
have
done
better,
the
music
would
have
been
far-far
bigger.
Each
and
every
song
out
there
was
an
item
hit
in
the
making.
However,
they
have
come
up
with
quite
an
interesting
array
of
tracks
in
De
Taali."
Elaborating
further
on
the
music
of
De
Taali,
Riteish
adds,
"In
Cash,
the
idea
was
to
have
each
of
the
songs
as
a
dance
number
which
meant
that
the
sound
had
to
be
consistent.
On
the
other
hand
De
Taali
has
much
more
happening
in
terms
of
variety
since
there
is
everything
from
an
item
song
(Everybody
Put
Your
Hands
Together)
to
a
track
about
friendship
(De
Taali)
to
love
songs
(Aaj
Main
Boond
Hoon,
Hone
Lagi,
Tooti
Phooti)
to
a
folk-fusion-mix
(Maari
Teetri)."
This
time
around
the
music
has
strong
R.D.
Burman
influence
as
well.
While
Riteish
nods
in
agreement,
Vishal
Dadlani
explains,
"That's
true.
Shekhar
and
me
have
always
been
a
great
fan
of
R.D.
Burman
and
in
De
Taali
we
did
get
an
opportunity
to
place
a
few
love
songs
in
the
same
mould.
There
have
been
some
particular
sound
references
that
we
have
taken
from
Pancham
da's
music
of
the
70s."
Incidentally,
De
Taali
came
on
floors
quite
some
time
back
and
it
has
taken
the
film
almost
2
years
to
reach
the
finishing
line.
Produced
by
Ravi
Walia
and
directed
by
Eshwar
Niwas,
the
film
went
through
its
own
casting
flip-flops
with
Amrita
Rao,
Koena
Mitra
and
Lara
Dutta
being
considered
as
the
leading
ladies
before
Ayesha
Takia
and
Rimi
Sen
were
finalized.
In
fact,
the
film
was
earlier
titled
Jalsa
but
was
later
changed
to
De
Taali
since
the
two
words
form
the
part
of
lyrics
of
two
songs
in
the
film.
As
per
Niwas,
the
change
was
also
made
because
De
Taali
was
quite
a
youthful
title
and
went
with
the
theme
of
the
film.
