YUVVARAJ Music Preview

October 18, 2008

One man who doesn’t make music lovers stops speaking about him? Yup! The maestro of contemporary music A.R. Rahman is back striking the stupendous chords for his favorite auteur Subash Ghai. Their biggest venture together ‘Taal’ won laurels across the boundaries of globe. And now they are back swaying with their musical drama ‘Yuvvraaj’.

Audio launch for the film wasn’t a star-spangled occasion, but just a private musical gathering at a plush five-star hotel in Mumbai. Turning down entire spotlights on them, Director Subash Ghai and music maestro A.R.Rahman, legendry lyricist Gulzar and playback singer Alka Yagnik were present for the occasion. A.R. Rahman’s mother who is rarely spotted in such occasion was present there launching the audio and showered her blessings on entire cast and crew.

Much delighted A.R. Rahman spoke on the occasion, “It has always been a pleasure working with Subhashji in all his projects. We worked on Taal, which gave me immense creative satisfaction as a composer and it was an honor that Yuvvraaj was offered to me. Working on the music of Yuvvraaj has been a creative challenge for me, as Subhashji has always been associated with melodious music and has a vast understanding about the subject. Once you have an artistic mind like Subhashji behind you I guess everything falls rightly in its place. Taal was a mega success and I see Yuvvraaj to be much bigger than that.”

A.R. Rahman has a great likeliness for Subash Ghai and lyricist Gulzar and his musical score much reveals of it…
