'Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster' is bolder than Murder 2 ": Rahul Mittra

New Delhi, Jul 18: It may have garnered a huge response from cinegoers across the country but the Mohit Suri-directed 'Murder 2' has also earned flak from several quarters for its depiction of women as mere sleazy sex objects.

"Audiences are wooed with bold subjects but end up getting a raw deal as these films lack content and a good storyline. Murder 2 is a case in point and though I have a lot of regard for Mr Mahesh Bhatt as a film maker, I was really disappointed to see his latest presentation," says producer Rahul Mittra'.

Rahul Mittra, who is ready with his production venture 'Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster', asserts that women have been often portrayed as sleazy sex objects in Indian cinema and that 'Murder 2' is a continuation of this trend.

Rahul asserts that his forthcoming flick 'Saheb biwi aur gangster' would redefine women protagonists in Indian cinema.

"SBAG will set some trends in the industry. As opposed to Jacqueline in 'Murder 2', Mahie Gill's character in 'Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster' represents a woman who knows what she wants and works towards achieving it. She's a woman on top and in control," he says.

"Our film is much more bolder than 'Murder 2' and thankfully richer in content. The audiences will surely love our twisted tale of lust and betrayal," Rahul said.

Directed by ace director Tigmanshu Dhulia and produced by Rahul Mittra's Brandsmith Motion Pictures, 'Saheb Biwi aur Gangster' is slated to hit screens in September.

The film's theatrical promo was launched on a grand scale with the release of 'Zindagi Na Miley Dobara' and the internet on July 15, garnering rave reviews across cine-goers, critics and Bollywood at large.

Starring Jimmy Shergill, Mahie Gill, Randeep Hooda, Vipin Sharma, Shreya Narayan, Deepal Shaw and Deepraj Rana, this much awaited movie is slated for a September release.

Director Mahesh Bhatt who is all set to screen his upcoming movie ‘Murder 2’ all over the world on the 8th of July feels that the film is filled with a lot of erotic scenes which will set the screen on fire and would even break the previous records of bold scenes. The movie which stars Emraan Hashmi and Jacqueline Fernandez in the lead roles is expected to share a lot of bedroom scenes in the film and it can be obviously felt that ‘Murder 2’ will be the boldest of all films.

Both the stars have shared a great chemistry on screen and Jacqueline’s acting in the film is much more sensuous and erotic than Bipasha Basu’s sensuousness in the film Jism which even starred John Abrahm in the lead role. According to Mahesh Bhatt, Jacqueline has given a surprising performance and feels that this film will give a new turn to Indian Cinema which will be more bold and sexy.

Music review of film 'Murder 2'

Film: 'Murder 2'; Music Directors: Harshit Saxena, Mithoon, Sangeet Haldipur and Siddharth Haldipur; Lyricists: Sayeed Qadri, Kumaar and Mithoon; Singers: Harshit Saxena, Sunidhi Chauhan, Kshitij Tarey, Saim, Mithoon, Mohammed Irfan, Arijit, Sangeet Haldipur and Roshni Baptist; Rating: ** - X-factor missing.

The music of Vishesh Films' movies is generally striking and the songs of their 2004 release 'Murder' were tremendously trendy and so high expectation from the album of 'Murder 2' is not too much to ask for. But the film's tracks, although not bad, do not succeed in winning the listeners.

A compilation of eight tracks, the album is packed with love songs.

The flavor of romance starts with the first song 'Hale dil', composed and crooned by Harshit Saxena. It has nothing new that can electrify music lovers.

It also has an acoustic version, which has a soft rock touch.

'Aa zara', composed by Sangeet and Siddharth Haldipur, is a reasonably paced song. It has a intense feel about it and Sunidhi has appropriately captured the mood with her powerful voice that gives the song an edge.
The track has a remix version too.

Next is 'Aye khuda', which has been composed by Mithoon, who also goes behind the mike along with Kshitij Tarey and Salim Bhat to sing the song. There is a strong Sufi influence and the song has a least musical arrangement. Focus is on vocals and singers impress with their high pitch. It is worthy to listen.
'Aye khuda' also has a re-mixed version.

Another track composed by Mithoon is 'Phir mohabbat' that has Mohammed Irfan, Arijit and Saim Bhat behind the mike. The slow-paced song with less music is not instantaneously likeable because of average lyrics, but it slowly grows on you thanks to likeable composition.

Sangeet and Siddharth's second composition in the album is 'Tujhko bhoolna', which is full of techno beats. The moderately paced number, sung by Sangeet and Roshni Baptist, is average and offers nothing great to the listeners in terms of composition.

In general 'Murder 2' soundtrack has nothing unusual and it is not even a patch on the music of 'Murder'.
