Royalty rules. So does Rahman. The maestro impresses again and again with inspiring consistency. And 2008 is simply glorious.
While the effervescence, eccentricity and elegance of Ghajini, Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na and Yuvvraaj leaves listeners floored and fans beaming with pride, Rahman's piece de resistance of the year is decidedly the soundtrack of Jodhaa Akbar.
Through five compositions and two theme pieces, he creates grandeur, romance, history and emotions even more exciting than Ashutosh Gowarikar's lengthy labour of love.
The power of Rahman's boundless imagination, brilliant detailing and exhilarating rendition coupled with Kashif's touching reverence comes alive in trance-transporting divinity of Khwaja mere khwaja. Flawless.
