Speaking from LA where Aadesh is attending to the release of his first international single. the composer fumed, `I had earlier worked with Prakash Jha in Raajneeti over the song Mora piya which was a big success. So I happily agreed to contribute an item song entitled Paro to Chakravyuha. But I am not happy about the way my song is being neglected in the marketing of the music. `
Aadesh claims the entire credit for his track Paro is going to Salim-Suleiman who have done the rest of the score. And neither the composers nor Prakash Jha is doing anything to rectify the misapprehension.
Says Aadesh, `I am shocked and disappointed to see credit for my song going to Salim-Suleiman. Surprisingly they haven't come forward to clear the air regarding who's done the 'Paro' song. Neither has Prakash Jha. I've sent him a long message requesting him to ensure I get credit for it. `
Prakash Jha is far from amused at the allegation. `First of all, why blame Salim-Suleiman. The marketing and the promotion of a film and its music is the producer's responsibility.
As the producer of Chakravyuha I know exactly how to promote the songs. I don't know what Aadesh is getting insecure about. Salaim-Suleiman have done 2 songs and the entire background score for my film. Naturally they are the face of the film's soundtrack. `
Prakash says Aadesh's track would get its attention and recognition at the right time. `It's a catchy dance number featuring Abhay Deol and Arjun Rampal. When the song is on air Aadesh would definitely get credit for it. I see no reason for this negativity. `
Aadesh, however, maintains that a perception is being created that the entire score is by Salim-Suleiman. `Please go on the internet. You'll know what I mean. I don't know who who is responsible. All I am asking is, give me my due credit. I am trying to get my groove back after my illness. `
