Summary: beautiful and varied music
Comment: with a command of european and indian musics, ARR produces
a series of recordings which may or may not share material. Big
deal. This is lovely stuff, if thin - that's the missing star
Customer Rating: 5
Summary: Spirit of India
Comment: This is best Music album ever brought out by any Indian.
Rehman who entered the Indian Film Industry with his everlasting
Music in ROJA, had composed the Music in such a way that it truely
inspires every Indian- where ever they are.
In fact it is not the only one best Album, which he produced but
they are several best albums which added fame.
Bottom line- An album which every Indian should posses.

Summary: RAHMAN AT HIS BEST!
Comment: Simply one of his more mature performances. This is an
absolutely stunning album. Rahman has Always been innovative and
never fails to impress! He is, in the true sense, a Genius.
Vande Mataram - Two words that became a fiery war cry and
electrified the nation towards freedom. A mantra that instlls a
sense of pride and belonging. Today , a vibrant musical movement
that evokes in each one of us a whole new expression of freedom. A
concept brought to life by Bharatbala and musically enriched by A R
Rahman.
"All perfect praises belong to the Almighty alone. I dedicate this
album to the future generations of India. I wish that this album
inspires them to grow up with the wealth of human values and ethics
that this country is made of. I wish that the youth of today would
wipe out phrases like 'chaltha hai' from thier vocabularies and
find themselves motivated human beings. I wish Bala continues to be
as 'mad with patriotism' as he is now and spread this emotion among
every youngster in this country" - AR Rahman .
