After a long wait ARR has come with SWADES. As usual another master piece from the maestro. He really is a Mozart form Madras. For those who do not know anything about the movie it is by Lagaan fame Asuthosh Gowrikar. Gowrikar-Javed –“ARR” combo as worked fine this time as well.
I have been listening the album from yesterday. Obviously, the best track in the album is none other than “Yeh Jo Des he tera” sung by ARR himself. I presume it to be a patriotic song with the little bit of hindi I understand and I’m sure this is going be heard all over India for the next 2 or 3 months. The chorus running behind the song and the ‘shenai’ portion in between the song is awe inspiring. He has used the same ‘shenai’ bit in another theme music track. The whizkid has used lot of Tabla this time and flute also has taken a good portion of the songs and the theme music.
My next favourite song is the ‘Yeh taara oh Taara ar taara’. As usual you can witness a bliss in Udit’s voice. The childish voice in this song is really a flash in the pan. Udit has done a great job in the other two songs also.
‘Dekho na’ is the same as ‘Baba kichu kichu thaa’ from the tamil album ‘BABA’. Unusually a song sounded good even when translated.
With king SRK in the lead role these songs surely will be a super hit. Those who haven’t listened to these songs please do it asap !..
