Music in any form is appealing to the human senses. And why only humans? Some experiments show even animals react positively to the melody of music. Now, that simply demonstrates universal power of music. Talking about Indian music, we have come across numerous soul-stirring songs since the time bollywood started to churn music. Playback music completely changed the way music was perceived in the country. Indians were always very fond of music but filmy songs gave music new dimension and new loyal fan base. Let’s talk about some of the soothing songs that not only touched you but also proved to be a hit among the masses.
Song ‘Kasam Ki Kasam’ belongs to movie ‘Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon’ from the Barjatya Banner. Movie was a dud but its songs sold like hot cakes. The song I am talking about is extremely gorgeous and manages to touch some hidden chords inside you. Lyrics are totally mesmerizing and song lovers really loved this song.
Movie Kisna failed to create any magic on big screen but it did give us a breathtaking song ‘Hum hain Iss pal Yahan’. This song is full of love and passion and you can’t remain untouched by it. The song, on one hand is utterly romantic and yet a thread of sadness runs through it. A R Rahman was truly wonderful in the composition and Udit Narayan and Madhushree did complete justice to the song.
Not for nothing we people love to call A R Rahman ‘Indian Mozart’. It’s hard to remember which one musician changed the film music industry as drastically as Rahman did. Though, he gained international recognition recently when he won ‘Oscar’ for Slumdog Millionaire but his talent was pretty evident since the time he made debut with unforgettable Roja. One song of his that consistently finds a mention in favorite list of numerous music lovers is ‘Tu Hi Re’ from the movie Bombay. It is just way too hard to resist the magic of this song. Probably this song might bring you tears and yet you can’t help but marvel at the eternal beauty of this song.
