Young
composer
Prasanna
Shekhar
may
not
be
miffed
but
he
is
hurt
for
sure.
Soundtrack
of
Ram
Gopal
Varma's
next
offering
Go
has
arrived
on
the
stands
and
to
his
horror,
he
has
realized
that
he
has
not
been
adequately
credited
for
his
song
'Kaash'
in
the
film.
"I
wasn't
aware
about
this
issue
at
all
until
my
friends
had
a
look
at
the
album
and
informed
me
that
a
girl
called
Sneha
Khanwalkar's
name
appeared
on
the
credits.
I
was
shocked
as
I
had
not
even
heard
about
Sneha
in
the
past,
let
alone
meeting
her",
says
an
emotionally
charged
Prasanna.
Did
he
take
up
the
matter
with
Ram
Gopal
Varma?
"I
did
and
he
did
admit
that
there
was
a
mistake
somewhere.
He
has
promised
that
in
the
next
lot
of
CDs
that
hit
the
stands,
correction
would
be
made
in
the
credits",
informs
Prasanna
who
has
been
associated
with
Ramu
in
films
like
Sarkar,
Ram
Gopal
Varma
Ki
Aag
and
Darling
in
the
past.
Has
this
episode
left
a
bad
taste
in
his
mouth?
Says
Prasanna
after
a
thoughtful
pause,
"I
won't
say
so.
It
is
just
that
I
want
the
world
to
know
that
who
is
the
person
behind
'Kaash'.
I
have
been
told
that
it
has
turned
out
to
be
one
of
the
most
appreciated
songs
in
the
album.
As
a
budding
composer,
the
least
I
want
is
to
be
recognized
for
my
efforts."
Did
he
ever
think
of
joining
the
bash-Ramu
brigade?
Ever
since
the
release
of
his
Aag,
anyone
and
everyone
is
seen
taking
advantage
of
the
situation?
"What's
the
point
in
that",
revolts
Prasanna,
"Whatever
I
am
today
is
because
of
Ramu.
He
may
say
that
he
is
not
in
the
business
of
mentoring
people
and
all
his
associations
are
purely
business
drive.
I
disagree.
I
feel
that
he
has
given
this
industry
dozens
of
technicians
and
if
you
are
talking
to
me
today,
it
is
because
of
Ramu."
"In
fact
after
hearing
the
soundtrack
of
Go,
Ramu
was
mighty
impressed.
He
had
in
fact
gone
on
record
to
say
these
were
the
best
songs
he
had
heard
in
last
five
years
for
his
home
production.
I
am
now
looking
at
audience"s
reaction
when
the
film
releases",
says
29
years
old
Prasanna
hopefully.
Crooned
by
Farhad
Bhiwandiwala
and
Priyadashani,
'Kaash'
comes
close
to
the
style
of
'Zehreela
Zehreela
Pyaar'
[Daud]
in
the
way
it
is
paced
with
husky
vocals
to
boast.
Appearing
in
two
versions,
this
Sarim
Momin
written
number
has
a
western
classical
feel
in
the
way
it
is
orchestrated.
Ram
Gopal
Varma
was
unavailable
for
his
comment.
Starring
newcomer
Gautam
along
with
Nisha
Kothari,
Go
is
directed
by
debutant
Manish
Srivastav
and
is
releasing
all
over
on
28th
September.
