Tum Ho Toh - the emotional finale of Rock On!

Farhan Akhtar has always carried the young and trendy tag with directorial ventures like Dil Chahta hai and Lakshya behind him. Farhan, the actor, became an instant hit with Rock On! But to call Rock On a Farhan Akhtar film would be a misnomer. It was a tribute to the spirit of Rock music, of which Farhan himself is a dilettante. The tale of musicians of a rock band, who after a series of successes succumb to a clash of egos, only to come together years later and carry on with the legacy of MAGIC – the rock band, touched the right chords. Shanker-Ehsaan-Loy’s music became a runaway success. The final song Tum ho Toh was the icing on the cake, bringing out the latent emotions of friendship, love and loneliness. Here are the guitar chords of the song.
