Rahman wasn’t just the coMposeR

The subject of this post is the second song from Heropanti 2 with -numa as its suffix.

It was titled Rehnuma (an Urdu word meaning, “A person who shows the way”).

The involvement of A R Rahman in the song wasn’t restricted to composing it, but he was also one of the three people who sang it.

Faiz Mustafa and Swagat Rathod were the others.

If the six songs on the film’s soundtrack were arranged in the ascending order of their durations, it would be the last – it was half-a-dozen minutes and 24 seconds long.

Sarthak didn’t overstay the Swagat

Veere Kadh De – the last of the 13 tracks from 99 Songs on this blog – was an amalgamation of three genres that have captured the imagination of young music buffs in India of late – rap, Punjabi folk and electronic sounds.

Penned by Navneet Virk and Shiv (who wrote the rap portion), the A R Rahman composition was rendered by Sarthak Kalyani and Swagat Rathod. The duo participated in the legendary music director’s YouTube contests.

The track was just three minutes and 38 seconds long, but was a tad disappointing vis-à-vis the mind-blowing numbers preceding it.
