Srijit Mukherji and Anupam Roy hit the high notes for Uma
January 1, 2018. Anupam Roy made a resolution on the first day of the new year, and he stuck to it. When t2 dropped in at his place on a Sunday, he was busy practising the keyboard (that’s the resolution). “I was fascinated by the keyboard. And I always had the desire to learn it. I practise every day for an hour. And I love learning new things. I’m playing Auld Lang Syne on the keyboard now,” said Anupam, the Uma composer. Minutes later, the doorbell rang. Srijit Mukherji walked in, and immediately spotted a message on Anupam’s tee — a line from Anupam’s song Ghawrbari that featured in Srijit’s Zulfiqar. “This is really nice,” said the Uma director. A t2 chat followed... Srijit, in the video for the Jaago Uma song, we see you getting punched in the face! Who do you play in Uma (releases on June 1)?!
