OSTs

In the same line as my last post, here comes la crême de la crême of movie soundtracks according to me, a person highly inspired by indian music discovering new melodies almost every single day (that’s how i define myself). Even today i came across the OST of The Darjeeling Limited. It won’t join today’s selection though; the bollywood songs are taken mostly from the ‘70s and ‘80s, a period I can’t stand. In fact, I find a lot of french people wanting to discover Bollywood turning to movies from that period and songs like Dum Maro Dum. PLEASE, don’t do that! This isn’t the right introduction to Bollywood.

So here come the OSTs. Keep in mind that i’m considering the albums as a whole. Obviously, i’ll start with A.R. Rahman.

Dil Se Dil Se..
My all-time favourite. An evergreen album.
Taal Taal
The album that gave Rahman international recognition.
Lagaan Once Upon a Time in India Lagaan
Nominated for Oscars. Loved for its songs and background score.

Saathiya Saathiya

(and Alaipayuthey, it’s Tamil version)
Water (Soundtrack) Water

Mycheal Danna & Rahman both excelled.
Rang De Basanti Rang De Basanti
I even ripped off the score from the DVD.

Other Indian movies include:

Devdas Devdas
I found ‘Devdas with Selected Dialogues’ in France. Awesome.

THE movie that made me cry.
Saawariya (A Film By Sanjay Leela Bhansali) CD Saawariya
The movie might not have worked but music is excellent.

  • Select pieces from the top music directors in Mumbai.
