EACH and EVERY song is not simply another 'song’ … rather it spells authenticity and grandeur on a different level the way the orchestra excels into majestic purity, witchcraft and innovation, the way the chorus is harmonized throughout, the manner in which a dynasty of elite singers all come together to perform in spellbinding fashion, the highs and the lows in the notes scaling stratospheric heights…in reality there are no superlatives for this piece of sheer opulent genius that has to be heard to be truly believed. As you listen to the songs of HDDCS (and I am sure all our readers have already heard them umpteen times), pay close attention to the mehnat put into each song. (Trivia: it was actually the singer Kunal Ganjawala who had recommended Ismail’s name to Bhansali when he was looking for a music director for his magnum opus so it’s a shame Kunal never got to sing in this movie). With Khamoshi: The Musical (1996), Sanjay had already set the bar very high … so did he match those huge expectations with “Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam†? A resounding YES! In fact, so good is the music of HDDCS, that it has already cemented it’s place in the history books of greatest ever Hindi soundtracks…īhansali has always managed to extract the best out of the then newcomer, Ismail Darbar, case in point HDDCS and Devdas (2002). Sanjay Leela Bhansali has always been associated with quality cinema (notwithstanding Saawariya (2007), which is perhaps an exception in some people’s eyes) and he certainly has an ear for quality music! In fact he himself is composing the music of his forthcoming Guzaarish (2010) having already composed “Thode Badmaash Ho Tum†from Saawariya (2007). In this world, where desire rules the heart, you will discover…love is the flame that lights up the soul… Public Rating Average: 5.18 / 10 (rated by 420 listeners) Let us know what you think about this review Reviewed by: Vikas Bhatnagar - Rating: 10.0 / 10 Singers: Kumar Sanu, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Ustad Sultan Khan, Shankar Mahadevan, Udit Narayan Alka Yagnik, Vinod Rathod, Karsan Sargathia, Mohd.
