"O Rangrez" from Bhag Milkha Bhag is my current favourite. The tune by Shankar Ehsan & Loy has a vintage rural flavour & is quite melodious. Popular Indian instruments has been used effectively by the trio. Prasoon Joshi's lyrics are essentially romantic.
"O Rangrez..
O Rangrez Tere Rang Dariya Mein
O Rangrez Tere Rang Dariya Mein
Doobna Hai Bas Tera Banke
Haye Nahin Rehna Dooja Banke
Ek Bhi Saans Alag Nahin Leni
Ek Bhi Saans Alag Nahin Leni
Khench Lena Pran Is Tan Ke
Haye Nahin Rehna Dooja Banke"
Javed Basir's voice lends the song depth and meaning. The bubbly tone of Shreya Ghosal is a complete contrast to Basir and adds a playfulness in the song. The voices amalgam well, which makes the song intense and sweet at the same time.
"Apne Hi Rang Mein Mujhko Rang De
Dheeme Dheeme Rang Mein Mujhko Rang De
Saundhe Saundhe Rang Mein Mujhko Rang De
Rang De Na, Rang De Na, Rang De Na.."
The song beautifully captures the budding romance of Milkha Singh (Farhan Akhtar was outstanding in the film) and his sweetheart (played by
Sonam kapoor).
Music such as these is rare these days… *sigh*
Please leave your comments about what you feel about the song. I would love to hear your voices :)
