Amit Trivedi
Since he launched his independent label AT Azaad, three months ago, Trivedi seems to have got a new lease of life. While he cherishes the opportunity to compose songs devoid of the trappings of commercial cinema, he isn't one who can celebrate this period of solitude that has been forced upon us. "As someone who enjoys travelling to different countries, or even merely to Goa when making music, being cooped up at home is not conducive. My [best] creations have been worked on in planes, in cars, or in hotel rooms. So, doing it in such an environment is tough."
Up next for the composer is Anurag Kashyap's offering, tentatively titled Doing Love Story, which "has a dance-oriented soundtrack". It will be his second attempt at creating a dance film after the upcoming Rocket Gang, a discussion on which instantly lifts his mood. "I cannot tell you how much fun I had while working on Rocket Gang," he says of choreographer Bosco Martis's directorial debut, an out-and-out dance venture. "Bosco's energy is likely to get you charged-up. People will discover a new side of me via this soundtrack because I haven't attempted a dance film before. Often, in the studio, Bosco would show me the set where the dancers would perform, and would also start dancing to depict the moves on which songs must be created," he says, adding that work on the five-song playlist has wrapped up.
