Zubeen gifted singer: Ismail Darbar By Our Correspondent Assam Tribune GUWAHATI, Oct 26 Rating Ya Ali sensation Zubeen Garg and winner of Zee TVs Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2005 winner Debojit Saha as two of the better singers in the Indian music industry, noted music composer Ismail Darbar today said both the singers from Assam, have the mantle to make big in the world of music. While describing Zubeen as a god-gifted singer, the noted music director went on to say that it is his dream to see Debojit amongst the top singers and he will do everything possible to materialise his dream, whenever the opportunity comes.
Talking about Zubeen, the undisputable king of Assamese music industry, Ismail said, Zubeen comes across as a fakir, who seldom looks at things with a professional perspective. He sings when he wants to sing and that is what makes him an unique singer. His style of singing especially his Sufi rendition stands him apart from other Bollywood singers, he said. It may be mentioned here that Zubeen sang two classical numbers in Ismail Darbars maiden private music album titled Rashiya Saajan, which hit the market couple of months back. When I asked him to sing these songs for my album, which also included the title number, he candidly said that he has never sang such classical number before but later when he finally lent his voice, it turned out to be flawless. The title song was a difficult one but he sang it with ease, revealed Ismail who was addressing a media gathering here. Ismail was here to inaugurate the 8th International Expo, which is being organised at the Assam Engineering Institute Field. Asked as to why, Debojit Saha, in spite of turning into a rage in the Indian music industry after winning the reality show title in the year 2005, is yet to bag any major break in the film industry, he said, I was one of those few people who had faith in his singing talent and it was only after I insisted personally that he was allowed to make it amongst the top 40 contestants in that show. My other colleagues never liked his tonal quality, which was evident during the show from time to time. I still have faith on his voice and I will soon prove his worth in the music industry. The reason I did not make him sing for my private album was not that I forgot my promises but as Debojit has entered into a two-year contract with Zee TV, he is not supposed to any music album until the maturity of the deal, he explained. Yes, I can make him sing for any of my films but in the last couple of years, I have not composed music for any movie, he stated. When the time comes, I will make him sing for me, he added. Meanwhile, Ismail also expressed his desire to organise a live programme in symphony style at Guwahati in the near future. On his latest tryst with controversy revolving around Zee TV latest edition of the reality show, Ismail said, What happened was very unfortunate and I will never work with Zee TV again. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
