What happened when Rahman called Himesh to sing...

The Bitch never in her wildest dreams thought it would come to this. A R Rahman has lost it. He wants Himess to sing for him!



Jesus, Mary and Joseph! What has the world come to? Why on earth is Rahman composing tunes with Himess in mind? Do all musicians go crazy after a successful run?

We know that every composer-singer worth his copied tunes has only one unfulfilled wish in his life. They all want to sing for Rahman saab.

Even a defunct composer like Bappi The Great Da, got to sing for Rahman in ‘Guru‘. Do you know what song that was? Nevermind!

Moving along, The Bitch dialled for Mozart in Madras. "Can I speak to Mozart please", I said when I called up Panchathan Record Inn.

Someone said, "No Mozart...only Isai Puyal here." (Isai Puyal means Musical Storm in Tamil)

"Alright, let me speak to the storm then I said."

"Wokay" pat came the reply.

"What is this phunny business I hear Allah (Allah Rakha Rahman)?" I went for him when he took up the receiver and grilled him about his Himess pet project.

"Yes, I have come up with a composition that Himesh can do justice to."

"But Allah!" Hai Allah!!!

Rahman continued, "It‘s a huge project with a big banner and for a star who has an important track."

"Allah", I am exasperated by now.

Rahman won‘t stop, "Things still are in a working stage as the shooting will be next year. I like the conviction with which Himesh sings, both his voice and attitude is right for this composition. I haven‘t spoke to him yet, but will soon ask him."



I said, "Don‘t." The phone immediately went blank.

Word spread like wild fire and the hilarious Himess that he is was quick to lap the free publicity with his outlandish statements.

"I will not sing unless it‘s for me, me me me me." Ok Himess, we get the drift.

Seriously, just stick to your resolution and say no to The Rahman when he calls. Please don‘t mistake Rahman for the plumber when he calls. Just say no no no no no.

Like you kept screaming to convince us that you were Monty in ‘Karzzzz‘.

This way you will save the world from going deaf with your songs.

Instead Himess wants Rahman to compose for one of his films where he‘s the leading actor-singer.

The Bitch hopes, when Rahman hears of this, he runs for cover.

Vande Mataram Rahman, Vande Mataram. (I dunno why I said that)
