Jasmine Singh
Those who have known him for long are not surprised when he does and say things which others would ideally coat with politically correct flavour. Where the world is heading doesn't bother him, for he has his own rhythm in life. There is no hurry, so from this approach stems singer actor Babbu Maan's upcoming film Baaz.
The story of a policeman standing for justice in the dabbang way (we mean actually the Salman Khan Dabangg type), the film, which releases on November 14, is directed by Simerjit Singh. The music that is released on Speed Records, however, is single-handedly handed by the man himself, Babbu Mann. As the entire crew of Baaz says, 'For the film, music means Babbu Mann.'
And so it is, as they gather around to release the music in Chandigarh with Babbu Mann as usual in his lost and found yet popular avatar. "I play Inderpal Singh Sidhu, an honest police officer. The story is actually inspired by a real character whose name I would reveal once the film has made its mark," says Babbu Mann. The actor has assumed many roles in this film-a dialogue writer, lyricist, singer and music director. "There are emotions and things that I couldn't convey through dialogues and those I have put in the music of the film. This film is musically sound, something that I have worked on with my heart and soul."
This film is a joint presentation of Star Entertainers, Royal Entertainment Co. and KG Productions. Along with Babbu, other star faces include Pooja Verma, Yograj Singh, Sardar Sohi and Mukul Dev. Simerjit Singh has directed the film and the producers are Bobby Garcha, Sukhjinder Singh Bahia, Gurdeep Singh Bahia and Khushwant Grewal.
The music of the film that has five songs have been penned by Babbu Mann with utmost care. "Not for a minute did I let Inderpal Singh Sidhu move away from me, since the character that I portray is so honest, each and every word of the film and the lyrics of the film are soaked in sincerity," shares Babbu Mann who lays his bet on the music and the film, in chronological order as he adds “Enni Vi nahi maadi police Punjab di” and to validate that he would want us to wait for the release of the film.
Going by the trend, Baaz too has a battery of producers behind it who are excited about the project. "The quality of action in this film is as good as any Bollywood film," they echo as they look at Babbu Mann whose energy level increases with every question. "I don't have to make an effort for it, I mean to say to write," he adds. Currently, Babbu Mann is busy with live shows and spends his time at his studio in his home.
