After Hate Story, Vivek Agnihotri is busy working on his next ambitious project Freedom. And for the same, the filmmaker has managed a coup of sorts by getting Rahul Sharma (son of santoor legend Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma) to compose music for his film. Rahul has in the past composed music for just Yrf's Mujhse Dosti Karoge many years ago. Speaking about the kind of music in Freedom and why he decided to get Rahul Sharma on board, Vivek Agnihotri says, "Freedom is set in the 80's and 90's- a period during which Indi-pop as a genre of music was really at its peak popularity.

Rahul has a solid Indian classical background and is equally sound in his knowledge of...

So, here we are, in our home office. And we like it, we really do. We like the fact that we can pretty much do what we want, whenever we want to. We like the fact that there's no boss breathing down our necks (good oral hygiene or not). That we can stroll into the kitchen and make ourselves cups and cups of tea. What we wear on the job--or what we don't wear, naturism fans. When we work. But what we don't like--and I think I can speak for all of us here, is when tech goes bad, when all your base are belong to the nasty little gizmo gremlin and it seems that nothing can fix it. And these moments make me long for the days when I.T. support was just a four-digit extension away.
