Kolkata, Oct 4 (PTI) Breaking away from his trademark peppy style, popular music director and singer Jeet Ganguly would now wish to step in the domain of a different genre of films, those more in sync with the urban audience. "Beginning from 'Ekla Akash', where I have sought to re-capture a different feel and mood, I will now also explore the genre of other realistic films through music, you will continue to have the Jeet of masala entertainers but wonder why I am not being used to compose music for other types of movies like Sandipan Ray of Ekla Akash, Jeet told reporters at the launch of the music of the film. Going back to his college days, consisting of fests and bands, Jeet explained there he wanted to tap other forms also and not confined to foot tapping 'Dhaker tale..." or "Piya Re...." of two superhit Bengali films which had topped charts for days after release. Coming back to Morning Fresh Media production 'Ekla Akaash', which he dubbed as an effort to bridge the gap between two genres of film music, Jeet said "Here, I have shunned the thumping numbers used vastly in other movies and rather focused on soothing melody." "As I said earlier giving lip to these lines brought tears to my eyes. I now want to do more and more such type of films whuich I had not done in past. I have long sought to add my voice to the lyrics of presentday talented poets like Srijato. MORE PTI SUS AMD AMD
