Imagine you are listening to a song ... then you just get up and go outside for some work..but your mind can't stop humming the song..During whole time, the song keeps on playing in your head. As soon as you reach back home, you connect to internet and start listening to song again. Thats when you know you are addicted!!! Same thing happened to me when I heard the songs of Ghajini... and nowadays, I'm hooked.
5 songs + 1 instrumental - guzarish, kaise kahoon(song+instru), lattoo, oye bacchu & behka - all 0f them are captivating courtsey A R Rehman. He has dared to experiment and yes, you do need a different music for a movie like Ghajini which promises to be so much unlike the run of the mill bollywood flicks that we have seen over years. Though Ghajini is a remake of a hit malyalam movie(which was also titled Ghajini), I keep on hearing that it is actually based on Christopher Nolan's Memento. I have seen Memento and admittedly, I couldn't understand what was going on in the movie for most part of it but in the end, the director's way of story telling simply blew me away. It is an awesome creative masterpiece. I did felt that Memento's narration was somewhat inspired from Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction but frankly, I don't want to take any credit away from Nolan. Having said this, movies like these come once in a couple of years and they are the trendsetters for others to copy..err follow.
Okay...back to Ghajini music now!!! Actually when I heard the album for the very first time, I didn't like it(except Guzarish ofcoz)...I thought that Rehman has experimented once too many and may be this time, couple of songs from album will be chartbusters. But then Rehman's music has always been like that. It keeps on haunting you unless you fall in love with it and I am no exception. His music is like nasha...dheere dheere chadta hai.. and then you can't do without daily dose of it :)
