Mumbai: It was quite a filmy music launch of a film with a very Bollywood name and with King Khan and Mithun da in attendance, things were obviously going to get as filmy as ever.Saturday Dec 8 11:15 PM
The music launch of My Name is Anthony Gonsalves was much more than just being yet another filmy music launch. With Shah Rukh Khan and Mithunda for company, the two actors easily overshadowed the others present including newcomer Nikhil Dwivedi and actress Amrita Rao. And what caught out attention was the mutual admiration society that developed on the stage between Mithun da and King Khan.
"Even Mithun da does not know how big a fan I am. I stood outside Juhu to see him doing a shot and leave. I am so lucky to have had the opportunity of having him in my own film," says Shah Rukh Khan.
Returning praises, Mithun Chakraborthy said that Shah Rukh’s style is different and unique and the fact that it is recognised, makes him a big star.
And yes there has to be some mention of the film's title as well, with it being catchy and also a popular song from the Amitabh Bachchan starrer, Amar Akbar Anthony
"Its a sort of a tribute to Amit ji. I hope the film doesn’t get wrongly used," says Shah Rukh Khan.
Not to miss the music of the film, for which all were present, actor, Amrita Rao said, "Of course we remember the song."
As for the newcomer, Nikhil Dwivedi, just Shah Rukh Khan's presence was enough. "He was the guiding light for the film and he has not only encouraged me, but many other newcomers including Ranbir," says the actor.
However, King Khan’s presence for the music launch made up for the absence of Pritam, the music director.
