MY NAME IS KHAN: Niranjan Iyenger turns lyricist

It was way back in June this year that we had broken the news about two splendid scratch tunes in the Karan Johar project, MY NAME IS KHAN, and also their situation in the much anticipated film. And here is more on the subject.

Niranjan Iyenger, the dialogue writer of films like Madhur Bhandarkar's FASHION, Karan Johar's KABHI ALVIDA NA KEHNA and KAL HO NA HO, was once a regular dialogue writer for the Bhatt camp with films like JISM, ROG, PAAP etc. But now Niranjan has turned lyricist and has written two outstanding 'sufi' based compositions for Karan's Shah Rukh Khan–Kajol starrer, MY NAME IS KHAN. The lyrics have already been put to tunes and as per a very reliable film personality who has had the privilege of listening to them, they are simply awesome. Both the songs will be used in the background.

Well, we are sure that the talented and now versatile Niranjan Iyenger, who has proved himself as an able dialogue writer, will surely hit it off as a lyricist too. And he has got the perfect launch vehicle, a Karan Johar film starring Bollywood's global super star, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol!
