The world’s singing laurels of Indian ace A R Rahman post Golden Globes. Back home we always realized and recognized his musical magic. Rahman again teams up with Rakeysh Mehra and Prasoon Joshi post their achievement in Rang De Basanti , for Delhi-6 . An interesting observation is how Rahman has cut down on established singers like Sonu Niigam, Sukhwinder Singh, Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik and is employing more of new-age voices like Javed Ali, Benny Dayal and Mohit Chauhan to good effect.
The album makes a divergent shift to a Sufi qawalli . Rahman uses a calm and countryside combination of Javed Ali and Kailash Kher for this 9-minute long devotional number Arziyan . Javed Ali continues to sound like Sonu Niigam like he did in Jashn-e-Bahaara ( Jodhaa Akbar ) though one doesn’t complain. While Rahman effortlessly adapts to the new milieu, Prasoon Joshi shows equal versatility in his writing.
This song was suggested by Vaibhav Naik aka BOBO of Tampa bay fame.
