Aamir Khan is right that people today "watch" a song and the practice of listening to a song first without visuals is gone. The thrill of removing plastic wrapper off a cassette, putting on A side and listening to the first song will be difficult to explain to today's generation.
Brahmastra will screen in 15 theaters in and around Boston area in all formats ( standard, IMAX 3D , IMAX and 3D). A wide release for a Bollywood film after a long time.
This song just does not leave my playlist. “Thode Kam Ajnabi” from Pagglait. Arijit has weaved just a delicate melody. Neelesh Misra’s lyrics are so insightful.

is one cohesive album. All the songs are so consistent with quality singing, composition and production. Superb work by

I give kudos to Aamir to promote the film album (along with the composer, lyricist and singers) so well. Music albums have kind of become an afterthought for most films. This brings back the magic of old times.
Pancham , Gulzar and Ashaji discuss how the song "Choti Si Kahani se " from
#Izazat
came about and how he recorded the multi track song. cc

Param Sundari is the song of the week for me. Shreya Ghosal lifts any song she is part of. I love a good chorus based song which are getting rare in Bollywood.
Excellent Interview. Good questions. Love to see the love for Rahman by
@VishalDadlani
. We should thank Rahman for VS, Amit Trivedi and Sachin Jigar for doing Bollywood :)
Have mentioned many times that i really like Himesh Reshammiya's "Sanam Teri Kasam" album. This beauty "Tera Chehra" for people who say Arijit sounds the same in every song.
Raftaarien from RaOne was another tribute to Panchamda by
@VishalDadlani
and
@ShekharRavjiani
. The video does not list the lyricist but it was written by Vishal himself. Produced by Abhijit Nalani and John Stewart.
I know who needs to be celebrated more for his contribution to cinema. It’s lyricist
@OfficialAMITABH
. Almost all the songs I like are written by him. What a range of songs and the word play is just exceptional.
Three Arijit Singh songs in playlist : Ve Maahi ( Kesari) , Kheriyaat ( Chhichhore) and Ghungroo (War) . Three different genres and all sung well. A versatile singer.
Aidos Carmen a movie on

has a RD connection. The local cinema in Morocco playing Sholay and Aa Gale Lag Jaa and people cheering and singling along to "Tera Muzhse Hai Pelhe Ka Naata". cc

Nostalgia day. Still have it as one of my favorite cassettes. Pkdg Apr 95. 29rs. "Bombay" by ARR. At that time , did not know Sivamani. He is credited along with Ranjit Barot.
A lot has been said about Pancham not getting enough work in his latter days. But the same is happening today to Anand Raj Anand, Salim Sulaiman, Sandesh Shandilya, Ram Sampath, Anu Malik and many other composers. This was true even in earlier times I think.
Another Panchamish song by Vishal Shekar was "Hone Lagi" from De Taali. The lyricist again is
@VishalDadlani
A lovely melody . Sung by Anushka M and Shekhar.
Drive-in movie theaters are making a comeback in USA. Still remember watching "Rangeela" FDFS at a drive-in movie theater ( think it was sunset) at Ahmedabad. This was after getting blown away by the song previews on TV for several weeks prior.
@VishalDadlani
@MonicaSDogra
Lovely album. Ajeeb Laher , Dhoop ke Makaan, Mien Jiyunga , Adhoore. One of the few bollywood soundtracks to feature an English song 'Dont worry about me"
Saw
@aditiraval
video travelogue on Jambughoda wildlife sanctuary ( Panchmahal district of Gujarat). Beautiful photography and narration. Was amazed at the variety of bird species found at the sanctuary.
Watched first few episodes of Criminal Justice on

@TripathiiPankaj
. He elevates everything he is a part of and is a joy to watch.
A beautiful melody "Rang" has been crafted and sung by
@ShekharRavjiani
in his first non film pop song. Lyrics by
@PriyaSaraiya
who's been on a roll lately ( She's so good in "Kalle Kalle").
@VishalDadlani
An absolute legend. I still remember when the promo of Taxi 9211 first came on TV and was so glad and surprised to hear Bappida's voice.
The third episode with
#AjayAtul
and
#Anandji
was even better. Ajay Atul with thier brilliant orchestration and passion for music.
@VishalDadlani
genuinely admires both the veterans and his contemporaries.
#TimesOfMusic
Shekhar Ravjiani has released a number of indie songs this year and I particularly like “Ishq E Mareez” , “Kasam Se” , “Rang”. Wish people gave it a listen.
T Series can now release a compilation of all songs originally recorded in Sonu Nigam's voice but rerecorded and released in some other singers voice. Now that they have agreed to a truce :)
A harmonium and sarangi infused melody composed by SLB and sung beautifully by Shreya Ghosal
#JabSaiyaan
from
#GangubaiKathiawadi
. The sound design and orchestration of
#JabSaiyaan
has the distinct SLB stamp. Shail Hada has produced it well.
Like the two Arijit songs "Rait Zara Si" and "Tumhein Mohabbat" in
#AtrangiRe
. "Little Little" is a fun song. Rest are just okayish. Vintage Rahman soundscape.
#Malaal
is a good album. Zara Suno ( could fit on Barfi album) is an absolute gem. Nadh Khula and उधळ हो are other good songs. After the over punjabification of Bollywood lyrics, the Marathi influence is a breath of fresh air.
Arijit even sounds like Rahman in the lovely "Phire Faqeera". Other favorites are Lamha ( reprise) , Radhas poem , title track for now.
