Himesh Reshammiya is doing a number of things and enjoying it. The music composer-singer-actor will now be seen as a mentor in the new music reality show Sur Kshetra. With a whole lot of movies and songs behind him, Himesh says he’s enjoyed all of them.

But if he had to choose one film of his which he thoroughly enjoyed, which would would be it? “Damadamm,” he says hesitating, “I’m very proud of it. It’s a clean entertainer. Of course, Aap ka suroorr was a huge hit. I have a 40 per cent success ratio. But I will try and better my performance,” he says.

And has he ever not enjoyed any of his films? “No, I’ve enjoyed them all. But I was not very happy with the way Kajraare was released. Pooja Bhatt made a very nice film and I somehow feel it was not released properly. But that’s a thing of the past. Bhushan Kumar and I have resolved our issues,” he says. Himesh, who will be seen in an action film next, wants to lose weight and tone up before he starts shooting for it.

Himesh Reshammiya hopes to lose weight in the next couple of months. And he’s set a rather ambitious target too. He wants to be lighter by 10 kilos by February. All this, for a new action film and an upcoming reality show. So, while you can expect to see Himesh sporting a new look, rest assured that the cap will stay. He tells CS why:

Lucky charm
The cap has proved very lucky for me. There was a phase when I took it off, and then all my projects bombed. I’m going to always wear it now, in my films and TV shows too. It feels good to know that I’ve finally got a film that’s clicked with the audience. Otherwise, you know that I’ve been panned for my work in the past.

Mumbai: Composer-singer-actor Himesh Reshammiya credits actor Salman Khan, a godfather to many newcomers, for his success in the Hindi film industry.

“For me it`s always been god, dad and Salman Khan. He (Salman) has been a driving force for me. I just want to thank him for his support. Thank you Salman bhai,” said 38-year-old Himesh, whose music in the actors “Bodyguard” was well-received by the audiences.

Himesh, who reportedly had a spat with Salman sometime back, minced no words while thanking the actor and his family for helping him at every stage of his decade-long career either a music director, singer or even as an actor.

“After this break of one-and-a-half years and with love and good wishes of Salman bhai, my first film “Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya” was possible because of the Khan family and now my 101st film “Bodyguard” also is getting me awards. It`s all because of their love. In some way or the other Salman bhai has been the reason for my success,” said Himesh.

Himesh Reshammiya in a candid chat with MM.com about his next flick Damadamm! which releases on October 27.

Though your first movie Aap Kaa Surroor was a hit, the last three films did not do well at the box-office. What are your expectations with Damadamm!?
I am very confident that Damadamm! will do very good business and it will get me back in the same race where I was after Aap Kaa Surroor. Radio was made only for a niche audience, where I got a lot of critical acclaim for my performance but the film could not do well at the box-office. Later, I had to suffer due to the fallout with Bhushan Kumar for Kajraare. I am quite confident that Damadamm! will give me a mileage as an actor. Even though it’s releasing with RA.One, is huge competition and is obviously going to do well.

The man who could make it big only with his music sense, Himesh Reshammiya, says that he has inherited this talent from his father. Vipin Reshammiya was the first person to introduce the synthesiser to the Indian film music. Having worked with several legendary musicians like RD Burman and Laxmikant- Pyarelal, Vipin never got the limelight he deserved. And Himesh is not happy with the fact. He says, ” My dad has not received many awards which he deserved. But he did receive the Dadasaheb Phalke Award which is indeed a big thing. But now he has taken a backseat as he wants me to be at the top. Actually his name has not been highlighted as much as mine. But I must say that my work is reflection of my father, I have learnt everything from him.

This Diwali, Himesh Reshammiya will compete against Shah Rukh Khan’s RA.One with his romantic musical, Damadamm. And since the odds, at least for the time being, strongly favour SRK and his big-budget high-action thriller, Himesh has already taken out his lucky trump card. It has come to light that the singer-composer will now sport his signature cap in a song in his forthcoming film.

Himesh appeared in the same avatar at the film’s music release this week. Says Himesh, in a telephonic interview, minutes before a concert in Lagos, “My cap has always been very lucky for me, especially after Aap Kaa Surroor (2007). In Damadamm, I will be wearing the cap in the song, Madhushaala…
