Second fiddle
Is Juhi all set to playback?
Juhi Chawla, who has been taking music lessons for over five years now, is planning to cut an album. “Indian music is sublime and is so much relaxing,” she enthuses." And anyways, there isn't much that filmmakers would offer me in terms of great roles, though I have been fortunate to continue doing films that I believe in."
While she is tight-lipped about the genre, insiders reveal, it would be something “light, peppy but not remixes.” Considering she’s had such a diehard romantic image all along, she would probably sing romantic melodies for a start, though she claims she could sing most of the new hits too. A sample of her vocal range was displayed in Dubai earlier this year at the Zee Film Awards function when she sang the title song from Kal Ho Na Ho on stage while hosting the show along with ‘good friend’ Karan Johar. And was she good? “She was brilliant,” is how Sushmita Sen raves about her.

Dilliwallahs get a taste of Dandiya - Sunidhi Chauhan style
Dandiya evokes special memories for many. Why, nearly the multitude, sways to the beat during the navratras and if an unconfirmed reports of an Ahmedabad daily is anything to go by, almost 80 per cent teenage romances bloom during the festive season – romances that culminate into matrimony quite often. It was therefore with eager anticipation that Delhiites accepted the invitation to an all-night dandiya at Mittal Gardens on the Gurgaon-Mehrauli Road on Dussehra.
And what made the young boys’ heart beat faster? Sunidhi Chauhan, who had specially flown in from Mumbai, after performing in Ahmedabad and other places. While the crowd in Delhi enjoys partying till the wee hours of the morning, they are not particularly accustomed to performing , that too, the organised sort, which has to be followed with utmost care and precision, as far as getting the steps right are concerned.
The crowds were jumping, dancing, singing along the diva, as if there would be no tomorrow. And what was the super-duper playback singer’s reaction? “It was ecstatic. I was simply floored by their enthusiasm and zest for life,” chuckled Chauhan. Being a live performer too, she obviously knew how to charm her fans, and mixed foot-tapping melodies with folk tunes as youngsters rocked all night.
