<Tr> <Td> "It is easier when you have to create a song like "Move Your Body" in Johnny Gaddaar . There you can add a lot of nonsense in the recording studio . On the other hand, something like Taare Zameen Par requires melody to hold center stage . There is a different level of energy that you have to bring in composing for such different soundtrack as we had to be subdued yet effective in Taare Zameen Par ." </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td>--Shankar Mahadevan </Td> </Tr> <P> Timing and other aspects are usually planned when scoring a film, but Khan chose to take a more improvised approach . Instead of using a studio, he and the trio Shankar--Ehsaan--Loy recorded it at Khan's home in Panchgani, to clear their heads and not be in the mindset of the city . As they watched the film, Khan pointed out when he wanted music to begin and of what type . Ehsaan Noorani noted that this strategy allowed the score to have a "spontaneity to it ." </P> <P> Different styles of background music were used to convey certain things . For example, a guitar is played when Ishaan is tense or upset, sometimes with discordant notes . The music of the opening scene--the recurring "Ishaan's Theme," which represents the character's peace of mind--overpowers the background noise to show that Ishaan is lost in his own world; the noise becomes louder after he snaps back to reality . But the scene in which Nikumbh explains dyslexia to Ishaan's family took the opposite approach . Silent at first, the music is slowly introduced as the father begins to understand his son's dilemma . The almost seven - minute long scene scarcely used any background music, to slow the pace and make it seem more realistic . </P>
