जब 'दिल ने दस्तरख्वान बिछाया'...

~~~

You might be wondering - 'What's with the Blog-post's Title In Hindi?'

Does The Title Remind You Of A Song?

Or Does It Make You Break Into Melody, And Hum Along?

~~~

Precisely!

*Celebrity Coverage Ahead*

Prepare To Be Starry - Eyed... ;)

~~~

The Title Today Is Dedicated...

To...

A Feast...

एक दावत...

Hosted By Yash Raj Films, Themselves...

~~~

YES!

The  yrf  Banner...

दिल ने दस्तरख्वान बिछाया...

दावत - ए - इश्क़ है!

The much awaited Romance-Comedy or 'Rom-Com'...

From The House Of Yash Raj Films...

"Daawat-E-Ishq"!!! :D

~~~

Now, Before I Recall The Entire Episode...

Of A Rainy Day In July...

July 17, 2014...

To Be Precise...

~~~

I'd Like To Let The Credits Roll...

~~~

The Credit For This Entire Opportunity...

Goes To...

Daughter Dear, Charu...

~~~

Why, You Ask?

~~~
Because, She Was The One...
Who Sneaked Into My Twitter Account...
One Fine Evening On July 16, 2014...
And, Was Up, To Some Mischief...
~~~
She Reassured Me...
That It Was Something Constructive...
~~~
Whatever It Be, I Told Her Not To Fiddle With My Account's Settings...
And, An Hour Later...
There She Was...
"Mumma, Do you want to go and meet Aditya Roy Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra?!"
~~~
I didn't believe her question, at first...
Rightfully so, I thought...
Must be one of her kiddish ramblings, I assumed...
~~~
Next Moment, I had my Laptop in front of me...
With a few tweets opened up...
And, with PVR Cinemas' Twitter Handle on the screen...
~~~
"Mumma, 420 Characters!"... :o
~~~
YOU Read That Right...
Three Tweets...
And, Our Evening For The Next Day...
Had Been Made... ^_^
~~~
The Background Story...
There Was A Contest Being Run By PVR...
For The One Hour...
That My Laptop Was With Charu!
#DaawatAtPVR, It Was Hash-ed...
~~~
See...

Your chance to meet @AdityaRoyKapoor & @ParineetiChopra for the launch of the title song of #DaawatEIshq at #PVRPlaza Delhi. #DaawatAtPVR

Apparently, participants had to play Aditya and propose dishes, to present to Parineeti, at a Daawat...
These...

From This Pleasant Tweet-o-Mania...
To This...

~~~

All This Had Happened In Half A Day's Time-Frame!

And, Charu & I couldn't be happier. :)

~~~ 

For precisely 12 Noon, on 17 July...

When The Music Album Was Disclosed...

At Gaana, Saavn and all other such online Music Websites...

She was playing it on Loop!

Yes...

Charu was playing the entire playlist on Loop. :)

~~~

Coming From Sajid-Wajid as Composers...

Kausar Munir as the Lyricist...

And, boasting of Superb Singers...

Of the likes of...

Shreya Ghoshal

Sunidhi Chauhan

Sonu Nigam

Shalmali Kholgade

Javed Ali

~~~

The Music Score...

Sure, Does Serve A Platter...

And Invites Its Listeners To A Musical Feast! :D

~~~

There are 7 tracks in all...

Which span a little over 28 Minutes...

Each with a unique flavor...

Of its own...

Each with a unique place...

To fit into the Story...

~~~

Fast - Forward To 1600 Hrs...

On July 17...

When We'd Left Home...

To Head To PVR Plaza, Delhi...

~~~

At the precise moment...

When it started pouring...

Cats & Dogs...

~~~

Nevertheless, we boarded the Metro to Rajiv Chowk...

And, by the time, we arrived...

It was STILL pouring...

Cats & Dogs...

~~~

We reached ahead of time...

And were made to wait in the Lounge Area...

~~~

It was not long...

Until, we were told to proceed to the Audi...

And, take our seats...

~~~

What followed were...

The Setting - Where Aditya & Parineeti were to be welcomed...

To address the Media, and launch the Title Song...

That Is RJ Richa of Fever 104, in the Center, With Tariq & Gulrez... :)

With The 'Sun' Shining On Them. ;) :D

And, here they're seen reacting to the Audience's reaction over Daawat's Trailer...

Much Of The Pictures, Is It Not?

Let's Proceed To The Video Then! :)

~~~

Here You Go...

The Official Music Launch Of Daawat - e - Ishq...

But, before you do...

Here's a little peek...

~~~

Point 1 : The Girl With Her Autograph Book, which Aditya and Pari are signing, is Charu...

Point 2 : From 0.50 to 3.20, The First Question Being Answered, Was Charu's...

Point 3 : Do NOT Miss Pari Singing The Title Track, Towards The End...

Charu had prompted both of them to sing 'Daawat', to which Pari agreed and Aditya cheered on, while another lady had requested him to sing Tum Hi Ho, instead.

Also, Pari had admitted that she had a Four Seconds Of Dance in the song, for which she was angry with Mr, Faisal, as all of the gentlemen used to rehearse and give their shot, while she had to look on... :D

Though, I believe that her voice has a unique musical ability, and that she should consider pursuing Singing too. :)

Point 4 : Charu says, all the others must have struggled in the Stampede, for their Snaps and Signatures...

While She...

Received These...

~~~

~~~

And, Not to forget This...

~~~

Presenting To You...

The Video Now...

Uploaded By YRF's Official Channel...

~~~
In the Video which Charu had been recording along...
Her Enthusiasm was so strongly recorded too...
That at most points than not...
Overshadowed Adi's and Pari's voices too... :)
