Rockstar

Rockstar starring Ranbir Kapoor and Nargis Fakhri in the lead roles is directed by Imtiaz Ali. Eros International Ltd. will co-produce the film with Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd. The film score and soundtrack will be composed by A. R. Rahman. The first theatrical trailer was released on August 31, 2011 along with Bodyguard starring Salman Khan and Kareena Kapoor. Rockstar happens to be the last movie of legendary actor late Shammi Kapoor.

The story follows Janardhan Jakhar (Ranbir Kapoor) an uncouth, social nobody in college in Delhi. A good-for-nothing, uncooperative son at home. And a struggling-musician-with-little-hope to his friends and acquaintances. But Janardhan wants to change all that. So when a well wisher discloses the secret behind all great success… that you have to fall in love and then break your heart. Only then will your music become better, deeper and you will be a star. Janardhan is determined to make it happen for him too. He befriends Heer (Nargis Fakhri); the most beautiful, sophisticated and popular girl in college. The two strike an unconventional friendship, and spend their days together in reckless abandonment. Then Heer leaves and Janardhan continues with his regular life. He gives up music and joins the family business. But fate has other plans. Janardhan and Heer meet again. This time things are different. Before he knows it… Janardhan embarks on a tumultuous journey of self discovery, longing and restlessness only to realize that the very thing he spent his life looking for was in front of him the whole time.

The music for the film will be scored by A. R. Rahman replacing the usual associate of Imtiaz Ali, Pritam. The lyrics will be penned by Irshad Kamil. According to Rahman, "Rockstar is a character driven film and as one can guess from the title, there will be lots of guitar." In brief, the music will have very different vibrations. Neeraj Shridhar and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will associate with Rahman for the first time through this film.Harshdeep Kaur will be heard singing a very soulful sufi song in this film. Italian-Canadian singer Natalie Di Luccio has recorded two songs for the film. A. R. Rahman has now completed background score for the film and the audio is expected to release in September. The climax song of the film will have Ranbir Kapoor performing in front of a live audience. Ranbir had travelled to Chennai and stayed with Rahman for a week in order to "Feel the song imbibe and absorb it" so that when he finally performs it, "The song would be an extension of his personality."
