It was (Kavi)tailor-made for Krishnamurthy

It wouldn’t be incorrect to say that Dheeme Dheeme wasn’t just a song from Zubeidaa (which released in 2001), but also the phrase that aptly sums up the manner in which many of A R Rahman’s compositions, including the track in question, grows on the listeners.

No reference to the song would be complete without a mention of the lyrics, and in particular, the fact that the opening lines also contained two synonyms of the Hindi word for slowly – Dheere Dheere and Haule Haule.

It was penned by Javed Akhtar and rendered by Kavita Krishnamurthy.
