VIDEO: One Blunder That Bhushan Kumar Rectified & Two That He Could Not
T-Series head honcho Bhushan Kumar has no qualms in admitting to his mistakes and near mistakes. Kumar reveals such instances from his past
Well, it all happens at work. You make mistakes and you correct them, but some mistakes bring in a lot of heartburn especially those that cannot be rectified.
Music baron Bhushan Kumar (head honcho of T-Series) is no exception to this, and in a candid and exhaustive chat at his Andheri office on Saturday, told us that he was in two minds whether to buy the music rights of Farhan Akhtar's maiden directorial Dil Chahta Hai (DCH). "In fact eventually I bought them--- but soon gave it back. And then, somehow I bought them again."
Thank God, we said. DCH was an epic film. How many times can we say that classic without stopping to have a continuous grin!

Explained Bhushan, "I felt that DCH was not a clear melody, but then it was youthful. So yeah it worked in a big way, but again if you see it didn't work till the film became a superhit at the box-office."
But he quickly admitted, "Lekin haan, I have gone wrong. Rang De Basanti, for example, was offered to me. I didn't take it and the music was a hit. There I realised that I need to go in for music, keeping the public's taste in mind, and not just my personal fancies."

But there was yet another blunder Bhushan perhaps still regrets, again maybe because he couldn't go back on it. Another case of 'Time and Tide wait for no Man'---- Mahesh Bhatt's Murder. "Murder mystery mein koi music kaise sunega, I thought? But look what happened to the number Bheege Hoont Tere!"
P.S: Bhushan Kumar was in a talkative mood and took all questions on his chin, as SpotboyE.com shot them one after the other. Watch this space for the FULL INTERVIEW coming up, soon
