Printer friendly page Producer: David Hamilton Director: Deepa Mehta Cast: John Abraham, Lisa Ray, Seema Biswas, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Waheeda Rehman, Raghuvir Yadav, Vinay Pathak, Rishma Malik Music: Rahman A R Singers: Sukhwinder Singh Deepa Mehta's `Water' has been in the news since it's inception and production days, when the Hindu purist revolted against banning the film in India due to its controversial theme. The film then went to Sri Lanka to complete the shoot secretively and made to the 30th annual Toronto International Film Festival where it was showered with accolades. This is the third film completing the trilogy after `Fire' and `Earth'. The film is produced by David Hamilton and has John Abraham, Lisa Ray, Seema Biswas, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Waheeda Rehman, Raghuvir Yadav and Baby Sarala playing the major roles. A.R. Rehman who has composed the music of other two films as well scores the music. An ecstatic classical track `Aayo Re Sakhi' by Sukhwinder Singh begins at the initial of the soundtrack. With a mellow and lucid pace, amid only some musical instruments the track turns out to be a very soothing one. Delicate in being, you've to devote all your concentration as you hear the song. The lyrics basically revolve around love, pleasure, celebration and liberty that form the base of the film. Enlightening your soul another song with strong classical base and very little music comes up in succession to the first number. Orbiting around Radha-Krishan theme, `Bangri Marorii' enlivens the feel of the film through the music. Built for the musical elites, the track is more of a recitation and once again fits fine to create the enigma in the film. Like the former two tracks the next song also takes the same route making it well evident the kind of music that has been integrated for the purpose. `Naina Neer Bahai' talks about the Meera-Krishna relation and once again follows the somber style. With a classical and semi-classical music base, fabulous words, the song proves better than the two in terms of compositions. It's just amazing and a classic piece. `Piya Ho' also moves in the same pace and is more of a leisure and pleasure track with Sukhwinder Singh handling the singing reins. The next track of the album `Sham Rang Mei' for the first time in the album brings around a cheerful and festive spirit. Beautiful celebration song in terms of singing, lyrics and composition. A very original and unconventional number that'll make you fall for it instantly. The bhajan `Vaishnava Jana To' ends the album. This is a popular song that every Indian is accustomed to. Words fall short in crediting Rehman for the kind of music he has scored for this album. He has taken full liberty to compose the choicest song, sans commercial ingredients making it perfect for a film with such an offbeat theme. With some of the most original, innovative and unique compositions, Rehman adds another feather to his cap as a musical intellect. The album is beyond all boundaries!
