Score for Manto 'intentionally disturbing' - The Express Tribune | Soundtrack | Scoop.it

Not only did James Cameron’s Titanic go on to become the talk of the town for its ground-breaking visual effects but also for the powerhouse of a score that accompanied it. With music by the legendary James Horner, the film’s soundtrack was lauded for Horner’s imaginativeness and ability to capture the spirit of survival and emotional confrontation depicted in the film.

It seems like Pakistani music composer Jamal Rahman is tasked with a similar responsibility. As he creates music for the biopic of an individual as complex as Manto, he tells us about how he had to explore his imagination to accomplish a feat that was anything but easy.
