When asked, he sounds very pleased- "as a music director we need to cater to requirements of our director and match the fabric of his film and its language has to match that of the bigger whole which is the film, like our yesteryears composers who last 3-4 decades like Kalyanji-Anandji to Laxmikant Pyaralal and RD. We need to mould ourselves to different needs of different situations and yet maintain our identity by adding our personal TADKA on every song". Versa-stylishly Shamir!
