A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 6
—————————————————————-

This is post number 06 in the series. As musicians go, ARR is a complete package. He is also much more than a musician, has proved to be media savvy as well as a successful businessperson. He is the first of Indian film music directors to own his music. Previously all film music was owned by films producers/distributors or the music companies, who released records/cassettes/discs etc. The same system prevails in the industry. Only ARR is one who is different. In this regard too ARR is a trend setter. Lata Mangeshkar could think of only royalty and here we have a 90’s kid on the block, who aimed to own the world, at least his portion of it.

hum mehnatkash iss duniya se
jab apna hissa mangenge
ik baag nahin, ek khet nahin
ham saari duniyaa maangenge

There may be others who are following the same path, I don’t know. His growth in all the above, has been exponential and blessed. Some of the singers introduced by ARR have also matured and achieved great heights in their singing career.

The song I am presenting this time is from the film ‘The Legend of Bhagat Singh’ (2002) which surfaced in the memory while doing the earlier post of the same song from the 1963 film ‘Shaheed Bhagat Singh’ – “Sarfaroshi Ki Tamanna Ab Hamaare Dil Mein Hai“.

In fact, I am a big fan of the other song of this film (already posted), sung by Sonu Nigam – “Mera Rang De Basanti Chola”. The song has the same famous shair and a another shair in the mukhda, with new stanza’s written by Samir. “Mera Rang De Basanti Chola” is a folk song now, but “Sarfaroshi Ki Tamanna Ab Hamaare Dil Mein Hai” is well on its way to becoming a folk tradition.

That rendition of the folk song is special, the century old Hindi film industry has used these two songs multiple times.The particular strength of folk song is that it intrinsically belongs to its people. The music unites communities, entertains them, and documents their loves, losses, and struggles. It’s a genre that has long been used to stir passions, swell pride, and resist injustice and oppression. Little wonder, then, that colonialists and dictators the world over have routinely sought to curtail, or even extinguish, the traditional music of the land. Folk music supply’s identity and hope, in the extraordinarily intimate tradition of singing and performing.

The following two songs from this film are already posted in the blog:

Desh mere desh mere meri jaan hai tu (The Legend of Bhagat Singh)
Mera rang de basanti chola (The Legend of Bhagat Singh)

The complete package, ARR is again creative with this composed and sung multiple times revolutionary ghazal, with the nationalistic flavour.   And he comes up trump, which has been almost ignored by the jurist while awarding. Poetry and music have great potential for rousing passions of a people. And if it is AR Rehman composing it, it takes the revolution in the inner or outer spheres, whichever way you want to look at it.

Its high time, 6 songs into the series, and I must look for a qawwaali to post next in this series.  Oh..… my favourite is “Daraarien Daraarien Hain Maathe Pe Maula” named “Arziyaan Saari Main Maathe Pe Like Ke Laaya Hoon” from Delhi – 6 is posted.  So what! there are many more, qawwali-fusion compositions by AR Rehman. Readers may like to suggest this genre songs which they want to see posted in the blog.  Another mention-able qawwaali fusion is “Kun Fayaa Kun”, which people tell me is the new “CULT SONG” of the millennium. I have not thought anything to be the “Cult song” beyond “Dum Maaro Dum“.  My son assures me that “Kun Fayaa Kun” is the cult song of the new generation, for all time and all occasions. This is a landmark achievement of AR Rehman, to top the traditional qawwaali that has ruled the field for centuries in the sub-continent. Not a mean achievement at all, to surpass the coke studio fusion of “Tajdaar-e-Haram” by Atif Aslam, in the 21st century. More on ARR fusion and fusion qawwaali in the next post.

Filhaal, let us hear, and appreciate the first non – Rafi , “Sarfaroshi Ki Tamanna” appearing in the blog, by Sonu Nigam and Hariharan.

saans ban ke ham gungunaayenge
aane waali har naslon mein

aane waali aane waali

Part 2

sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai
dekhnaa hai zor kitna aa baazu-e-qaatil mein hai

sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai
dekhnaa hai zor kitna aa baazu-e-qaatil mein hai

dekh saktaa to tu bhi dekh le ae aasmaan
hausla yeh dekh ke qaatil badi mushkil mein hai

apne hi lahu se ham likhenge apni daastaan
zaalimon se chheen lenge yeh zameen yeh aasmaan aa aan
apne hi lahu se ham likhenge apni daastaan
zaalimon se chheen lenge yeh zameen yeh aasmaan aa

sar phire jawan ham to maut se bhi na daren
aanch aaye desh pe yeh kyun gawaara ham karen ea en
mulk pe qurbaan hon yeh aarzoo dil dil mein hai ea ea

sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai
sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai
dekhnaa hai zor kitna aa baazu-e-qaatil mein hai ea
