Yash Raj Films’ latest presentation ‘Tara Rum Pum’ is the story of a happy family and how the family overcomes the hurdles put in its way by a fateful incident.

The film, directed by Siddharth Anand , brings back the successful jodi of Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukherjee back on the big screen. Child artistes Angelina Idnani and Ali Haji play the couple’s children in the movie.

Saif Ali Khan as Rajveer Singh aka RV

Ever since his childhood Rajveer has been passionate about race cars. After the death of his parents, Rajveer dropped out of college and started working in the pit-crew of a racing team. On a fortunate day, Rajeev’s life changes forever after he meets Harry (Javed Jafferi) who would become Rajeev’s future manager. On the same day, Rajeev also meets the woman of his dreams, Radhika (Rani Mukherjee).

Rani Mukherjee as Radhika

Radhika likes to plan everything meticulously in her life. She is the doted daughter of the owner of one of the biggest software companies in the world. Radhika is a music student. One single day turned Radhika’s properly thought out life topsy turvy when she meets Rajveer during a cab ride. From then on, Radhika’s life was never the same.

Rajveer turns RV

Rajveer’s talent is discovered by Harry and he joins ‘Speeding Saddles’, a failing race team. After his very first win in the race, Rajeev falls in love with Radhika. A music student and a racer don't somehow seem like the best of matches, but the opposites do attract in this case.

There is something about Rajveer that attracts Radhika. May be it’s his flamboyance or his madness and energy. Barely two days after meeting him, Radhika found herself sitting in the stands of the New York Speedway, and cheering RV to win the race.

Love between RV and Radhika blossoms and culminates into marriage. Over the years, the couple is blessed with two kids Princess and Champ.The girl’s name is Priya but her parents lovingly call her ‘Princess’. She loves her Dad, Mama, her younger brother Champ and Bruno (their dog).

Ranveer is the younger one of the siblings. Everyone fondly calls him ‘Champ’ because he was born on a day when his papa won a big race. Champ has two passions: cars and burgers.The happy life of this loving family is thrown off track after RV meets a serious accident on the race track. RV is hospitalized for a few months. When he tries to make a comeback after recuperating, he realizes that he has lost his edge on the racing track.

One failure follows another. And soon the number one race driver in the USA becomes a failed phenomenon. To make matters worse, RV is forced to auction his house and move with his family to a run-down Bronx-style neighborhood.RV and Radhika decide not to tell their children the truth and construct a skillful masquerade of a reality show where they have to live a poor life in order to win a mythical grand prize.

The family struggles to survive a life that they are not used to, using a mixture of fantasy and cheerfulness to pull through in the face of adversity.Then, in a sudden twist of fate, RV gets one last chance to prove his mettle on the race-track. It is a chance for RV to reclaim everything that was taken away from him. Will he be able to fight his demons and emerge victorious? Will the family find real happiness again?

‘Tara Rum Pum’ promises to be an entertaining roller-coaster ride of emotions. The film is the story of human spirit and how it ultimately prevails.

The film’s music is composed by Vishal-Shekhar duo and lyrics are written by Javed Akhtar. The background music is by Salim and Suleiman Merchant.

The film’s costumes are done by Mamta Anand and Surily Goel. Surily chose many chic western outfits for Rani’s character in the film. Many times, when the film was being shot in New York, Surily and Rani would go out shopping together. They would together select Rani’s dresses, tops, skirts, boots and handbags.

‘Tara Rum Pum’ is a Yashraj Films presentation. The movie is slated to hit the theatres on April 27, 2007.

Re: Tara Rum Pum Movie: Plot Outline

even though I rarely agree with what agnipankh has to say.....but I think I agree on this movie....I think if I watched this movie....I might puke midway.....

racing is the most redneck of sports in US which has mostly white racers and white audience.....there's an occassional colored man sighting....so by having an Indian racer come and win the race what are the makers trying to prove.....but I guess none of the Indian filmmakers try to prove anything....they just make movies for NRIs.....I am pretty sure that the kids even though they were born in US will still have Indian accents.

this is another great story that could have been made in the Indian context but like Shakalaka boom boom the New York fetish of our film makers keeps bringing them back to the big apple.....what's next on the agenda....Amitabh and SRK in a Presidential fight so that first Indian American can get to the oval office and then entire Punjab is invited for a bhangra at the white house lawns.....I think Hema Malini and Kajol will be great as wives of the candidates....and Om Puri can be Secretary of State.....

Re: Tara Rum Pum Movie: Plot Outline

One happy American family with American professions like Race driver, software companies, music student.

Showing the greatness of American achievement, with big skyscrapers, grand stations (oops subways), speedways, and even the American national flag.

American style dog in the family.

Saif is the number one race driver ofAmerica

American passion for cars and burgers of "Champ"

American concept of reality tv show used by Rani to hide their tough times from their children.

Surily goel's choose American costumes for Rani. Tops, skirts ,boots, handbags. etc

YasRaj Films showing goodie goodie sweety sweety America and American way of life.

After watching this film every Indian should love America and dream of living a American way of life.

Indians should forget that America bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the only nuclear bomb used in actual warfare killing lakhs of innocent Japanese in an instant.

Indians should forget that America was colonised by the Britishers after systematically slaughtering the local native "Red Indians".

Indians should forget that what we see now as American achievement in their big dams, big infrastructure of freeways, railways, subways, big skyscrapers were actually built by black negro slaves in very inhuman conditions.

Indians should forget that America attacked Vietnam, Iraq without provocation, without reason and killed thousands of civilian population.

Indians should forget that America always opposes the Indian bid for permanent seat in the United Nations Security Council.

Indians should forget that America imposed a sanction on India after nuclear test, even if they have numerous nuclear warheads.

Indians should forget that America always denied critical technologies to India when required, super computers, cryogenic rocket engine etc

Indians should forget that America opposes the Iran-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India-China petroleum pipeline project, which is very important for energy hungry India and China. At the same time America is free to invade Iraq on false "Weapons of mass destruction" propaganda and loot its vast Oil resource.

Indians should forget that America always sided with Pakistan on every issue. During the Bangladesh Liberation, America ignored the biggest genocide in the history of mankind carried out by the West Pakistan army on East Pakistan population, killing lakhs. Resulting in crores of refugees in Indian territory. America supplied West Pakistan army with military goods during this period. America sent her nuclear submarine in the Bay of Bengal to intimidate the Indian armed forces, sounding alarm bells across defense establishments in India. President Nixon even called India as aggressors and termed Indians as the biggest warmongers he ever met, he also abused Indira Gandhi in person. India should forget all these things

India should start loving America forgetting every thing America did against India and Indian national interest. America considers India as her competitor and enemy and does everything accordingly. Indians should forget all these things. That is what YashRaj films is trying to do in his latest movie.
