Indian music artist Tushar Lall has been weaving magic with his renditions of popular soundtracks on his YouTube channel. The musician recently got a chance to work on Brahmastra, marking his first big Bollywood project. “Brahmastra actually happened out of nowhere. I think it’s an outcome of doing the Indian Jam Project for years. I found out that when Ayan (Mukerji, director) was putting temp music in the film, some of it were my tracks because he must have probably looked at the Indian version of the scores. I got a call from Ayan’s AD and she told me that they want me to come down and they have heard my work and really liked it. I was totally taken aback and I thought what a great opportunity. I went and met Ayan and then I met Pritam Dada (musician) as well,”Lall shares.

Working with Pritam, who has a prolific discography was quite an experience for Lall. “Pritam dada is the sweetest person you will meet and he makes you feel at home. His body of work is remarkable and whatever he’s done is insane. He was really nice to me and he said something which has stayed in my head. He told me why don’t you take the score and Indian Jam Project and write Indian parts on it. And the score was already written beautifully, so I went and did the entire Indian sound on it. And it worked out well. I think a lot of it went into the film as well. I thoroughly enjoyed working on the film. It’s technically my first Bollywood film and I’m glad I got to work on literally the magnum opus that India has made,” the 27-year-old elaborates.
