It is said that nearly 200 people migrate to Mumbai from all parts of India every day. This commonly shared aspiration to make it big in the city of dreams comes to life as the fictional character of a small-town boy reaches here in music composer Dhruv Ghanekar’s recently released album, Mumbai Star.
It consists of 19 original tracks composed for the eponymous ongoing musical in Japan. Produced by Devika Shahani Punjabi and directed by Nadir Khan for a Japanese non-profit Min-on Concert Association, the line-up features big names like Sunidhi Chauhan, Ravi Chary, Nakash Aziz and Kunal Ganjawala, alongside emerging artistes. “I started working on the tracks much earlier, in February. Unlike a movie, a musical requires you to work on the songs from premature stages. It needs to follow a chronology,” Ghanekar shares.
