ARR deserved a national award for Kandu Kondein Kandu Kondein!!
Nagas, what are u talking buddy? ARR deserved the award for KM. it is one of the sweet album of that year and I dont see any other album which could have come closer. What he had said in the interview is right. The Tollywood guys wanted fast and loud music and they do not want to listen to melody and it is very difficult to make them understand that melody and slow songs are songs too and ppl. will listen to them. And also u guys missed Lagaan where ARR won the national award. No music director had won that many National award.

Buddy, buy the CD or cassette. Do not get involved in piracy. This CD is really worth buying. It is on Times Music
When he debuted in 1993 and reinvented the sound of Indian film
music with "Muqabla", "Urvashi", and "Humma Humma", the media
christened him, the "Music Storm". In a recent interview, Allah
Rakha Rahman spoke about the growth of technology in the music
field, admitting that in today's times, it would be extremely easy
for him or any other composer to create the kind of music that made
him a phenomenon. As a result of creative reinvention, one has seen
Rahman experimenting with his sound in recent years, seeking out and
working with directors who have the ability to challenge him:
Ashutosh Gowarikar (Lagaan, Swades), Mani Ratnam (Peck on the Cheek,
Yuva), M.F. Hussain (Meenaxi), He Peng (Warriors of Heaven and
Earth) and Sanjay Leela Bhansali (the upcoming Bajirao Mastani).
Commercially favorable, chartbusting rhythms have given way to
artistic, classy melodies, eclectic sounds, and diverse orchestral
arrangements recorded with philharmonics world over. Shyam Benegal's
mammoth-budget, historical war-epic, "Bose - The Forgotten Hero" in
a way, completes Rahman's transition from a music director to a
maestro. "Bose" obviously is not a conventional, six-track filmi
soundtrack, but rather a 20-track album with 7 vocals and 13 tracks
from the film's score that immaculately express the mood and scale
of the film.
Rahman opens the CD with his own vocals in Aazaadi, destined to go
down as one of the finest patriotic songs ever written. Rahman's
singing brings back the passion of his very own Maa Tujhe Salaam.
The orchestration this time is grander and far more sophisticated,
with Chennai's Western Choir adding a larger than life, feverous
touch to it. Javed Akhtar's poetry captures a man's excitement at
finding out that he is not alone in his struggle for freedom. A
classic.
Vijay Prakash and the Mumbai Film Choir take over the second track
in an inspiring marching song, Kadam Kadam Badhaye Jaa. The brasses
of Rahman's orchestra sound themselves in all their glory, adding an
epic feel to Javedsaab's description of the road to freedom. The
Mumbai Film Choir returns for Hum Dilli Dilli Jaayenge, another
marching number about Netaji's leadership and the quest to march the
armies to Delhi. Rahman controls the thematic consistency in this
number by using the tune of Kadam Kadam as his bass track. Instantly
catchy and very inspiring.
Ekla Chalo begins with a soft Bengali prelude by Nachiketa
Chakraborty. It's mesmerizing tone sets up the mood blending Sonu
Nigam's soothing vocals. Javedsaab elevates his lyricism to new
heights through this call for unity. Ditto for Des Ki Mitti about
Subhash Chandra Bose reminiscing about his land. Once again, Sonu
Nigam shines with his hypnotic rendition. These numbers will grow on
you as you delve deeper into Javed Akhtar's masterful poetry.
Rahman returns to singing with Rafi, Rakeeb, and Sahukar Ali in
Zikr. Listen deeper and this call to Allah asking for forgiveness,
peace, and unity with send you into a trance. The powerful vocals
carry more of a chant than a tune, and are set to a steady rhythm of
membranophonic percussion. The lyrical plea may take a few
listenings to understand in its entirety due to the chaste use of
Urdu, but this is a very powerful track.
Ghoomparani is the last of the lyrical tracks in the album, sung by
Sapna Mukherjee and Satyanarayan Mishra. A mother's lullaby for her
child, the lyrics speak of great dreams she foresees for her son. A
soft, melodious number with addictive interludes in Bengali.
The thematic score section of the CD begins aptly with the Durga
Puja Rhythm, a traditional piece with heavy percussions and
shehnais. Diversely different from any of Rahman's earlier thematic
pieces, this one oozes with spirit and energy.
Netaji Theme showcases Rahman reinventing himself to reach alternate
dimensions as a composer. The signature strings and choir retreat
into the background, creating a warm ambience for the flute to lead,
impeccably supported by the clarinet. The theme repeats towards the
end of the CD in a slightly different version led this time through
string solos. The "Mozart of Madras" at his best.
The two Afghanistan Themes carry an eerie, epic-scaled feel, with
pronounced percussion and razzy vocals. The Arabic style strings
drive the piece with a keen Middle-Eastern flavor. Stunning vocals
in the shorter, second theme exemplify vintage Rahman.
Hitler Theme is an uneasy piece with short orchestral bursts, with a
heavy dose of strings and timpani crescendos. As any piece of music
trying to create an aura of Hitler's Germany would be, this too is a
discomforting composition in the minor key.
The two tracks titled Emilie Theme 1 and 2 are soothingly resonant
western classical pieces. A stunning blend of violin solos backed by
French horns and clarinets, these compositions and orchestrations
would make any composer proud.
War Theme and U-Boat Theme as the titles suggest, are pieces of the
score for what could presumably be war sequences in the film. Rahman
liberally plays with his brasses and timpanis as the strings help
alternate the pacing of the piece between victory and tragedy.
The orchestral versions of Kadam Kadam Badhayeja and Mere Desh Ki
Mitti are not merely instrumental versions of their originals but
rather orchestral interpretations that vary quite significantly.
Short and sweet.
The CD closes with Rahman's orchestral rendition of the national
anthem, Jana Gana Mana. Undoubtedly, the finest version of the
national anthem ever presented, this one is grand with heavily
complex arrangements. Don't be surprised if this is the version that
is used henceforth to represent Jana Gana Mana in its instrumental
form at least. Spectacular.
"Bose - The Forgotten Hero" is one of A.R. Rahman's and Javed
Akhtar's finest creations. It's lack of mainstream compatibility and
item numbers may hinder it from topping tabloid music charts, but
that is barely a price to pay for having the distinction of creating
musical storytelling of such high caliber. With three creative
geniuses (A.R. Rahman, Javed Akhtar, and Shyam Benegal) at work,
this quality soundtrack promises a very exciting movie to watch out
for
My last post is Planetbollywood Bose's review : it has given a clean 10/10
ARR recreates the magic he weaved with Legend of Bhagat singh. He gives his extra whenever the movie is on patriotism. The way he sings songs is mindboggling. it takes u straight to your feelings on your country. he is an amazing artist and i only hope that he churns out more period albums like this every now and then. :thumbsup:
Good work ARR, will post a detailed review later.
