In Raid, Ajay Devgn joined up with Ileana D’Cruz and Shaurabh Shukla in a very serious story based on true events about corruption in Lucknow of 1981. For the soundtrack, powerful music is the key here, as the heavy action is not one really made for a lot of classic Bollywood music. The complexity comes in because for this story the music must both excite the crowds and give way to the tender moments. The music directors had to compose a combination of essentially mellow but powerful songs so that Ajay can still hit the villain where it hurts but still find a way to melt the heart whenever Ileana is on screen. The creation of this soundtrack falls to two different styles of music directors Taniskh Bagchi and Amit Trivedi.
For two songs for Raid, Taniskh, has turned to remaking Indian classical music and for an added challenge chosen...

Lo, behold and get ready to see your favourite mainstream actresses of 90’s coming back to grace the silver screen all over again. Times have clearly changed and the career of a leading actress has now got a much deserved extension due to changing norms of film industry. Yesteryear actresses were not this privileged and most of them faded into oblivion or took the mother/ sister roles like Rati Agnihotri and Poonam Dhillon.
Indian film industry has been a male dominated industry and leading actors have a larger shelf life than those of leading actresses.
