Khalbali has definitely got style, but I’m afraid it won’t find too many takers. Rahman realizes that the brute force of the prayer and rendition alone is enough to set this track ablaze, as he wisely lets off on the music and only provides Harshdeep with some steady strings in the background on which she beautifully structures her melody. Nonetheless, she is in perfect form and her Punjabi rendition is right on. Music buffs will recall hearing her voice in Le Jaa of Karam earlier this year. The heroine of this awe-inspiring piece is Harshdeep Kaur. The purity of this track alone overwhelms your senses. It is a soothing Punjabi prayer that does nothing but ooze all over you. There isn’t a better way to start off a score than with Ik Onkar. Oh and by the way, the impressive add-on of lyricist Prasoon Joshi should be yet another reason to praise the musical cast of this film…right? Let’s have a listen at what promises to be a heart-warming journey through the musical fields of A.R. However, the bigger surprise was that there would be a track featuring the legendary Nightingale, Lata Mangeshkar, and the Madras Mozart himself, A.R. For starters, it featured Aamir Khan’s rare vocals. In regards to the music itself, Rang De Basanti generated ample attention. So technically, this isn’t a period film as speculation had suggested earlier. Each character in the film will play two roles: One in present day India, and one in the 1920s. It’s already known that the story of the film is a very unique one telling the tale of an English lady returning to India to create a documentary based on her late father’s diary. So what story will the music of Rang De Basanti tell? Second, Bose – The Forgotten Music, which had no exposure at all, yet turned out to be one of Rahman’s best compositions to date. Rahman’s music? Rahman ji has had two releases this year: Mangal Pandey, which had huge hype, ended up disappointing the classes. So the music of Rang De Basanti has finally released. That’s what the history of our cinema is all about.” – A.R. “ I think Hindi films need to become proud of songs and music again.
