Mumbai, July 3 (IANS) Composer Pritam Chakraborty is upset that he couldn’t do Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Rowdy Rathod’, saying that the filmmaker wanted the songs urgently but it was not possible for him to deliver at such short notice.
‘I am not very happy to leave a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film. That’s a very drastic decision I had to take. Actually, he wanted the songs very urgently and I did not have time,’ Pritam told IANS.
‘Rowdy Rathod’ will be directed by Prabhu Deva.
Pritam maintains that he won’t be able to sign any new project as he is under terrible pressure to deliver music for ‘Bodyguard’, ‘Players’, ‘Dhoom 3’, ‘Ek Tha Tiger’, ‘Mausam’, ‘Agent Vinod’, ‘Barfee’, ‘Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai 2’ and ‘Golmaal 4’.
‘Even if I get a very big film, I won’t be able to do it… I will have to deny the offer because I am so pressurized with work that taking his job would be actually insulting him,’ said Pritam.
Realizing that the quality of his composition may suffer because he is working on so many films at a time, the composer has planned to cut down to six films in a year.
‘You can do many films, but you can’t sound different in every film. I might be doing 12 films at a time, but the quality started dropping in some of the compositions. I am planning to cut down to six films a year,’ said Pritam.
