Theme Song composed by A R Rahman @ Hyderabad International Airport

Aasmaaan!!!!!!
That's the latest ARR song that's been released - It's not from any movie/pop album... I'm in loue with this one track already - starting off with slow whispers, and then moving on to "aasmaan" at a high pitch, with wonderful string arrangements which is typical of ARR - he has created magic again!!! says A.M. Aravind @ Rahmaniac's Reflections

This theme song composed by maestro A R Rahman playing in the background, welcome the guests. Congress president Sonia Gandhi inaugurated India’s most modern Rajiv Gandhi International Airport at Hyderabad. Much more specialities of this Airport, AR Rahman Biography

It's again a treat from Hyderabad Nawabs' team. The fun dose is good but not on par with their earlier films.

Story:
Johnny is the street smart guy who sells fake-medicines and quacks on streets. His friend Hussain is a painter who is a bit innocent and carries away by a good looking girl. David is a police officer who is hen-pecked at home. Johnny loves David?s sister. On the other hand Lallu Bhai is a street dada who assumes him to be a bhai on par with mafia dons. With this set of characters a story is narrated. It?s all screenplay based fun and masti on screen and there is no big story to write here.

Hyderabad mourns again!

Barely 3 months after the Mecca Masjid blast, the city has been rocked by serial blasts killing many more this time, in 2 crowded places--the Gokul Chaat Bhandar in Koti and Lumbini Park. Hyderabad mourns the dead and the injured yet again. Another black day. Another mindless act. Another trail of grief, destruction, loss, suspicion and blame.

Ishwar Allah Tere Jahan Mein
Singer: Chorus - 1947 Earth
Brought to you by: Azgar Khan

Shabana Azmi's Voice: 250 years of the British empire ended in 1947, but whats there to show for it? except the country divided, the massacres and kidnappings, vendettas and more violence, was it all worth it?

50 years have gone by since I betrayed my Aaya, some say she married Ice Candy Wala, some say they saw her in a brothel in Lahore, others that they saw her in Amritsar. But I never saw her again.

That day 1947 when I lost Aaya, I lost a large part of myself.

City Non-Stop - It happens only in Hyderabad

Questions people have asked about this traffic:

Have you ever seen such a flawless cut?

How many accidents in a second?

Who controls the traffic?

Who monitors the movement of vehicles?

Can this pattern work any where else in the world?

NB. A Hyderabadi may respond:
Hey Ghar mein bol ke aaya kya??? Arre Marna hai kya??
Arey bhai, agey chaltay kya, sawalan nakko karo, mein zara jaldi may hoon--keep moving, dont bug me now, I am in a huury....
