'ROCK ON' IS NUMBER 13 ON ITUNES

The popularity of Excel Entertainment's latest hit 'Rock On' released some two weeks ago has soared higher as its music album stood at number 13 on last week's iTunes US World Music chart. This is great! That's why Ritesh Sidhwani who has produced this album along with Farhan Akhtar is so thrilled as to say, "Music has no boundaries." In the same breath, he adds that for the first time an Indian album has reached so high up on the iTunes charts. Not only the producer and his colleague, but the people at large have found it amazingly excellent. No sooner than was it released, the film attracted acclaim for its robust rock soundtrack.

The credit for the astounding success of the album equally goes to its composer. Well, the composer is well known trio - Shankar- Excel Entertainment has earlier delivered successes like 'Dil Chahta Hai', 'Lakshya', 'Don' and 'Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd.'. Incidentally, the "Rock On" songs like "Socha Hai", "Rock On", "Sindbad The Sailor" and "Pichhle Saat Dino Mein" have caught on with the young and old alike. The fact that the album is now among the top 15 albums on iTunes, indicates the popularity of the film's music beyond India.
