Music
directors
Vishal
and
Shekhar
are
launching
their
own
label.
After
giving
chart-busting
music
for
Om
Shanti
Om,
Vishal-Shekhar
will
be
giving
a
break
to
and
promoting
new
talent
under
their
label,
Vishal&Shekhar.
But
Vishal
Dadlani
makes
it
clear
that
they
are
not
aiming
to
be
in
the
same
league
as
big
music
companies
like
T-Series,
HMV
Sa
Re
Ga
Ma,
Venus,
Tips
etc,
"Our
music
label
will
be
a
very
small
label
and
we
are
not
aiming
to
compete
with
the
big
guns.
It
all
started
when
talented
folk
and
rock
musician
Raghu
Dixit
from
Bangalore
came
to
meet
us
asking
us
to
help
him.
He
had
the
most
beautiful
voice
and
we
asked
him
why
his
music
wasn't
out
yet?
He
said
the
bigger
labels
were
giving
him
a
hard
time
and
he
was
feeling
disillusioned."
He
adds,
"We'd
been
toying
with
the
idea
of
our
own
label
but
when
Raghu
came
to
us,
we
decided
to
start
with
him.
We
really
care
about
good
music
and
young
talent
and
will
do
what
it
takes
to
promote
it.
There
is
huge
talent
out
there
that
is
not
getting
the
right
break
and
it's
time
remixes
took
a
backseat."
Vishal
and
Shekhar
are
gearing
up
to
launch
the
album
in
a
big
way.
"We
will
launch
the
album
at
a
small
event
at
the
amphitheatre
in
Taj
Lands
End
on
February
26,
where
the
ambience
will
suit
Raghu
and
his
music.
MTV
has
given
us
a
lot
of
support
and
loved
the
songs.
Shahrukh,
Farah,
Karan
and
Priyanka
have
loved
the
music
and
they
have
given
us
their
support
on
camera.
I
also
want
to
ask
Abhishek
and
Mr
Bachchan
to
hear
the
songs
as
they
are
also
my
music
idols
and
I
value
their
support.
We
want
to
play
the
songs
to
as
many
people
as
possible
and
find
out
their
first
reaction."
Talking
about
Raghu's
songs
Vishal
says,
"The
first
two
songs
are
Hey
Bhagwan
and
Ambar
that
have
rich
depth
and
soul.
When
he
sings,
all
languages
become
irrelevant.
Raghu
has
with
a
very
special
look,
sound
and
attitude
on
stage.
We
have
also
signed
four
other
artistes."
Financing
is
not
an
issue,
Vishal
laughs,
"We
are
making
lots
of
money,
now
it's
high
time
that
we
spend
it."
