  Challa (Ring) Jab tak hai jaan OST Singer : Rabbi Shergill Music : AR Rahman Lyrics : Gulzar MY RATING : 9/10   Reflections What happens when an underrated masterpiece alloys itself with the greatest wonders of the world?  MAGIC!  That is exactly what has happened here... Rabbi Shergil, one of the most underrated Indian singer who had his chances but could only gather a distinctive fan base, not the mass as others from his land (My fingers point at overrated ones like Daler Mehndi, Mika and the likes who can only sing about women & alcohol). Rabbi came into the Indian scene with his Golden 'Bulla ki jaana' back in mid 2000s. However, he disappeared somewhere towards the end of the decade and now suddenly he flashes with a boom in an AR RAHMAN-GULZAR musical that happens to be a YASH CHOPRA - SRK Romance ! How much more could anyone ask for? Well to talk about the track, its a pacy one with Punjabi Sufiana lyrics penned by Gulzar Saahab. The song picks up

Sharminda Hoon Movie : Ekk Deewana tha Music : AR Rahman Singers : AR Rahman, Madhushree Lyrics : Javed Akhtar MY RATING : 9.9/10 REFLECTIONS This was one of the most awaited song from the Album... The tamil version is one of my all time favorites... but Unlike the tamil version that's titled MANNIPAAYA that means "Forgive me"... the Hindi version was called "Sharminda Hoon" which translates to "I'm embarassed" and I was totally struck with awful feelings... I mean... Why would Rahman settle for such a displeasing title conveying a totally different feel from the original version... But once again... listened to it once... then again... and the first thing that caught my attention were lines by AR Rahman... "Duniya jo chahye kehle...Par tujhko milne se pehle...Khudse bhi na mil saka tha main... Khoya sa tha main uljha sa tha...Ki tujh bin meri na thi koi raahien Meri zindagi tujh bin thi jaise...Oas ki boond...Pa

Phoolon Jaisi (Like Flowers)   Music Director: A R Rahman Lyricist: Javed Akhtar Singer(s): Clinton Cerejo, Kalyani Menon MY RATING : 9.9/10 Reflections  Aah... the song that first hit the center spot on my heart back in 2010... well indeed OMANA PENNE (Darling Girl) was the first track ... rather the only track I had heard until watching the movie... so, much before Hosanna, Mannipaaya, Anbil Avan & Aaromale had made the impact... Omana Penne used to be my favorite...and now here you are...with the hindi version of Omana Penne ... PHOOLON JAISI (Like blossoms) and how good is the song? Well considering the sorrowful fact that benny Dayal isn't singing the hindi version, but Clinton Cerejo has done a wonderful job as the replacement and in fact I guess I have loved this more than the original one. Another song that has a special FEEL to it... and yes... once again... this one's for the most special person in my life... (she knows it's her I am talking

Hosanna Singers: Leon D’Souza, Suzanne & Blaaze Movie : Ek Deewana Tha Song Writer: Javed Akhtar, Blaaze Composer: AR Rahman MY RATING – 10/10 Reflections First of all... I wasn't really expecting much of an adore from the hindi version of my all time favorite tamil song, but hey... as on many occasions before... my deduction has been negated... yet again! Hosanna... starts off the same way it does in the tamil version... “Had I two hearts..I's d let you break my second heart too” ...this time we hear a new voice altogether...in words that are somehow more catchy and reverberating than the original tamil ones. Leon D'Souza peps out a more silky voice (compared to the haziness of Vijay Prakash). And as the song progresses, you will feel younger and dancing like the deewana (that I am.. gotcha :P)... The rap by Blaaze has been given a total about turn...and sounds more like a sunday mass meets saturday night disco.... which with repeated hearing...will win over yo

TUM HO (You are...) Rockstar OST Singer : Mohit Chauhan Music : AR Rahman Lyrics : Irshad Kamil MY RATING : 10/10 Reflections This song is perhaps that one song that has made me fall in love with the movie...therefore I call it the SOUL of the movie....the story....the romance that is....that was... This song... has sown in me... a seed...a story....an inspiration....and as I reflect my thoughts on this song... I have only one person in my mind.. my PAri.. my Angel...Angelica Mendoza...this one's only for you.... You are my story.. my inspiration... TUM HO...Meri Kahani....Meri Prerna.... LYRICS (ENGLISH TRANSLATION) Tum ho.. Paas mere Saath mere You are... near me... with me... Ho tum yoon.. Jitna mehsoos Karoon tum ko Utna hi paa bhi loon You are thus... the more I feel you...the more I get you.... Tum ho.. Mere liye Mere liye Ho tum yoon.. Khud ko mein Haar gaya tumko Tumko main jeeta hoon You are... for me... for me... You are thus way...I h

Jo Bhi Main [ Rockstar OST] Music Director: A R Rahman Lyricist: Irshad Kamil Singer(s): Mohit Chauhan Director: Imtiaz Ali Producer: Dhillin Mehta Banner: Eros Entertainment, Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision Ltd Cast: Ranbir Kapoor, Nargis Fakhri, Aditi Rao Hydari MY RATING – 9/10 Reflections The song that gets the movie kickstarted! The progressive masterpiece from the master of all masterpieces...AR Rahman! The humming bareness of Mohit Chauhan's voice has been used splendidly by the Master in this track, rather in each of the dozen tracks rendered by Mohit Chauhan for this Movie's soundtrack. The way the track begins in a confused oscillation depicting the different stages in his lives where Jordan (Ranbir's character in the movie) bumbles over his guitar..striking few chords in and out of his fingertips, to get things right... As appalling as the music are the lyrics of this song (once again.. I would say for all the songs in this album!).... thankfu

ROCKSTAR Director : Imtiaz Ali Music : AR Rahman Lyrics : Irshad Kamil Cast : Ranbir Kapoor, Nargis Fakhri, Shammi Kapoor, Aditi Rao Every time Imtiaz Ali makes a movie, I get filled with extreme curiosity and a vigorous will to watch the movie on the first day itself! Socha na tha created that urge and Jab we met only elevated it. Maybe, it’s the soul-touching music along with the soul-rendered lyrics that give rise to such an urge. Or maybe it’s the impression his movies create in the first trailer itself! But as long as the film justifies the expectations, you don’t want to blame anyone. However, when the film doesn’t live upto that hype, the level of liquid descends in your heart. Love Aaj Kal, despite my craze for the movie’s lead pair & the song DOORIYAN, I ended up spitting at the movie after watching it once. The reason??? Simple enough, the director promised something in his trailers & the songs, but the movie failed to nurture and reap what it had promised. It
