The last “Sarfaroshi ki tamanna” posted in the blog is this. That’s the ARR composition of the famous ghazal by Bismil Azimabadi.
ARR has one more composition of the same ghazal yet to be posted in the blog. I am planning to post that also in due time.
I know I have said this before too, that the relevance of Urdu poetry is a growing force, in our world. It is taken to one level by the connoisseurs, who treat it with reverence. And it has the vivacity to make a commoner want to reach out and learn the nuances of Urdu. People who have no connection or inclination towards classical poetry of any genre or language, are known to have “Takiya kalam” in Urdu. It is not just the poetry that has survived the test of time, it is the idioms and phrases, rooted in the culture of the society, the gunga-jamuni Tehzeeb and the ‘Mu’atabar” sounds, which made Gulzar say:

A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 7
The revival of the series on A. R. Rehman is beginning with this post. The last post in the series was this song.
I apologise for my tardiness in leaving the series like this for 2.5 years. None but myself to be blamed for not taking the targets/tasks seriously. Maybe that is the reason none of my series appear in the list of series posted in the blog.
Koyi nai, I plough on doggedly. Not that it is a hard task to find ARR gems, sometimes forgotten in decades old fog. Take the songs of “Saathiya” for instance.

Hullo Atuldom
A few months back our in-house encyclopedia a.k.a Shri. Arunkumar Deshmukhji had given us a post. This post gave us information about the various actors, down the years, who were connected to successful artists of the film industry but who’s career could not proceed beyond their first few films. That list included Raj Kapoor’s son Rajeev Kapoor, Premnath’s brothers etc. I can add numerous names of the current generation, who had successful first films & medium-success in their next few films but could not produce hit films later in their career- IMO the biggest example being Kumar Gaurav (no hard feelings, I was mighty impressed by him in “Love Story” so many years back.

Hullo Atuldom
Beginning this post with a few thoughts that have been running through my head. What is the time or age to define something as old?
I have been observing people around me, for the last few years of my better half’s tenure, at his last workplace. I am saying “last workplace” as he has decided to call it a day; inspite of loving what he has achieved over the last 45 years. People consider him young enough to open up about their joys & sorrows. His colleagues cannot believe or don’t want him to hang his boots yet. Of course, I am very proud of all that his co-workers (he doesn’t call them subordinates) have to say about him.

“meri awaaz hi pehchaan hai
gar yaad rahe”
So much truth in those words which were part of the lyrics that Gulzar wrote for a song in “Kinaara” (1977). There have been many similar sounding singers but this particular voice had a character of its own. I am speaking of our dear Lata Mangeshkar or Lata didi as she was fondly addressed.

Today, I learnt the importance of checking things on the blog before starting to write. I wrote a whole post with full detail. Very Happy, I sent it to Amma for proofreading. She replied – “I think I have already written about this song” and what do you know, “Dil Mein Jaagi Dhadkan” was already on this blog. But I had, already, written a post extolling how the song made me feel and why I loved it. The song was full of love & joy and always made me stop and give it attention. I had heard the song again because it was part of today’s polls in the bracket I mentioned in the “Ande ka Funda” song. And it inspired me to write.

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“.
