Rahman truly raised the bAR

Khwaja Mere Khwaja, a qawwali, was the longest track on the soundtrack of Jodhaa Akbar – it was six minutes and 56 seconds long.

It was one of two songs from the film to have an instrumental version. The oboe piece was just a couple of minutes and 53 seconds long.

The song was penned by Javed Akhtar.

While the soundtrack earned A R Rahman, who didn’t just compose, but also rendered this track, numerous awards, this track wasn’t honoured in the music categories.

However, it earned Raju Khan the Star Screen Award for Best Choreographer.
