Ta Ra Rum Pum is a 2007 Indian Hindi-language sports drama film directed by Siddharth Anand and written by Habib Faisal.

In the film, newly-successful professional racer Rajveer (Khan) faces success and tribulations within the U.S. stock car racing scene, supported by his pianist-wife Radhika (Mukerji).

[2] Ta Ra Rum Pum draws inspiration from the films Days of Thunder (1990), Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby and The Pursuit of Happyness (both 2006), and marks Khan and Mukerji's second collaboration, after Hum Tum (2004), which was co-written by Anand.

Principal photography began in May 2006 and lasted until that June, with the filming locations including the Milwaukee Mile, the Rockingham Speedway, and on set in Mumbai.

Ta Ra Rum Pum was theatrically released in India by Yash Raj Films on 27 April 2007.

One year later, during a race, rival racer Rusty Finkelstein crashes into RV's car, severely injuring and hospitalizing him.

RV returns to the sport a year later but finishes last in each race owing to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from his accident.

Shona later gets a job as an events pianist and runs into Shubho, who offers the family assistance, but she rejects it after he insults RV.

In a last-ditch attempt to pay their school fees (and throw a birthday party for Champ), RV lies to his friends and fellow cab drivers saying Princess has pneumonia, prompting them to pool a fund for her medical expenses.

After Billy rebuffs his plea for help, Harry offers RV the chance to make their team and get back into the racing world.

The plot of the film is combined with that of Tom Cruise's Days of Thunder (1990) and Will Ferrell's Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006) – the protagonist meets with an accident while racing and then makes a comeback destroying his nemesis race driver – and Will Smith's The Pursuit of Happyness (2006), where a father and son have to move out of their house, due to the loss of a job.

According to the Indian trade website Box Office India, with around 10,00,000 units sold, this film's soundtrack album was the year's fifteenth highest-selling.

Ta Ra Rum Pum collected during the weekend and debuted at #9 on the UK film chart which was a good opening.
