Notice how Javed Akhar has carefully used Urdu words ( pakeeza, qalma, fariste, falak etc.) for the lines that are written for Akbar (who, as we all know, was a muslim), and used Hindi words for the lines that are written for Akbar's hindu princess Jodha ( samay as opposed to waqt, kaaya as opposed to jism / badan, prem as opposed to ishq ).

How wonderfully arr has combined Javed saab's Urdu poetry, with Arabic instruments and style, with Hindustani classical alaaps in between, with choir- ish interludes! I loved the part where Sonu sings along with the chorus " Kyon Hai Yeh Aarzoo, Kyon Hai Yeh Justajoo.

My pick from the album would be In Lamho Ke Daaman Mein - probably because I am partial to Sonu's honeydew voice and flawless pronunciations and also to arr's knack for fusion songs. The set-up of this song and minimalist musical arrangement is pretty similar to the songs from Water. Bela Shende's pleasant voice is very well suited for this b hajan. )Īdd Mira's devotion and pang of separation to Radha's passion for Kanha and you get the recipe for the next devotional song ( bhajan ) Mann Mohana. However, there are some flaws, like how he pronounces chhaaya for example, that I am not sure if it's because of his singing style, or because of the fact that his native language - Tamil - alphabet, lacks the letter chh. Arr seem to be working hard on his Hindi pronunciations, as it seem to improve with each Hindi song he sings.This qawwali is very well suited for this movie, especially because Akbar was a devout bhakt of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti.Although, I have to confess that this song didn't leave a lasting impression on me (when I compare it with the other songs mentioned above) from first few hearings, I am pretty sure that this song will grow on me slowly, like an aged wine! Here's one more which belongs to that "Sufi cannon" of arr gems, Khwaja Mere Khwaja. The tunes are not identical though, there's a vague similarity, which I am pretty sure, is totally accidental.Īrr has always wowed me with his Sufi Qawwali type songs: " Piya Haji Ali" from Fiza, " Noor - Un -Ala- Noor " from Meenaxi, "Z ikr " from Bose, and "Al Maddath Maula " from Mangal Pandey.

Akbar's efforts to bring two cultures together, are aptly captured in words here by Javed Akhtar. " Jeetna Kahen Hum, Utna Kam Hai Tehzeebon Ka, Tu Sangam Hai. A perfect introductory song for the mighty Emperor Akbar. Also, the progression from " Chan Chanan Nan Nan" to " Marhaba Ho Marhaba " is really catchy. Wait till you hear the mind-blowing percussion before the second antaraa. The album opens with Azeem -O- Shaan Shahenshah which will virtually take you right to the battlefield! Bugles, heavy drums and percussion, chorus that sounds much like a war-cry, all together create such an environment that makes your feet tapping and your heart beating with an adrenalin rush. After a long wait and unexpected delays, here comes the latest offering from A.
