A
self-confessed
music-manic,
Sanjay
Dutt
has
been
instrumental
in
the
creation
of
Bunty
Walia's
Lamhaa's
soundtrack.
Says
a
source
close
to
Sanjay,
"Sanju
has
always
had
an
ear
for
music.
Till
the
time
he
was
associated
with
White
Feather,
he
would
take
a
personal
interest
and
organize
the
music
with
music
directors.
That's
why
films
like
Kaante,
Musafir,
Plan
and
Zinda
have
such
good
scores.
He
has
a
collection
of
around
8000
LPs
and
around
22000
audio
CDs
from
around
the
world."
Few
people
know
that
Sanju
also
listens
to
the
music
of
his
soon-to-be-released
films
at
home.
"Initially,
Lamhaa
was
going
to
have
no
music
as
the
director
Rahul
Dholakia
didn't
want
songs
but
Sanju
insisted
on
a
musical
score.
“He
even
sat
with
the
producer
Bunty
Walia
and
music
director
Mithoon
to
organise
everything
from
scratch.
Every
night,
he
would
come
home
from
his
music
sittings
and
play
out
the
music
on
his
music
system.
And
now,
the
music
is
doing
well
everywhere
(released
on
June
11),
and
Rahul
has
admitted
that
he
was
doing
a
mistake
by
not
wanting
songs.
The
Saajna
song
in
Lamhaa
is
both
Sanju
and
Manyata's
favourite
song."
Pricey
collection
Dutt
owns
one
of
the
world's
most
expensive
studio
monitor
speakers
in
the
world
-
Genelec.
"Sanju
is
very
possessive
about
his
music
systems
and
speakers
and
doesn't
let
even
his
wife
Manyata
touch
his
speakers.
His
iPod
speakers
are
specially
designed
and
signed
by
Ferrari
for
him
and
Manyata.
It's
a
limited
edition
and
cost
around
Rs.21
lakh
to
create."
