After giving the cult classic film, Rang De Basanti, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra is back with his latest offering, Delhi 6, which is said to be his semi-autobiography. Delhi 6 is momentous for both Abhishek Bachchan, and Sonam Kapoor, because this is Abhishek’s first solo film after the disastrous Drona and this is Sonam’s first film since Saawariya, which came out in 2007.

Moreover, there are lots of expectations from A.R. Rahman after he won the first Golden Globe for India with Slumdog Millionaire, congratulations to him, and he doesn’t disappoint at all with Delhi 6. One of the best things about Rahman’s soundtracks is its high production value which stands head to head with western standards and this time it’s no different. The soundtrack of Delhi 6 encompasses 10 tracks with no remixes, a great start. Now let’s review the album.

1. Masakali

First things first, the intro of Masakali is monumental! I’m listening to such a beautiful intro after a long time and all the credit goes to A.R. Rahman for this. I fell in love with the song when I listened to it for the first time in the teaser of Delhi 6 and I was eagerly waiting to listen to it and believe me, the wait was worth it. 2009 has only started but I can say this with great assurance that when the awards will come out in 2010, Masakali would be in the nominations for sure!

When you’ve awesome lyrics, superb music, and a great singer then it creates magic and this is what Masakali is. Prasoon Joshi has done a tremendous job in writing lyrics for this and to compliment the lyrics, music is top notch. But the real hero of the song is the singer, Mohit Chauhan. I mean, his voice has some serious magic touch and the way he sings the song just blows your mind. And not to forget, Sonam Kapoor, who also deserves a little credit for making this song popular with her dancing, kudos!

2. Arziyan

After the beautiful Masakali, here comes another beautiful song, Arziyan. Released as the second promo, Arziyan has a sufi touch, and it is sung by Javed Ali and Kailash Kher. Javed Ali is suitable for this, and Kailash takes Arziyan to a whole new level with his melodious voice.

Lyrics are very good and music is top class. My only problem with the song is its length which is 8:41 minutes! They say too much of anything is bad and it is really true for Arziyan. Arziyan as a whole is a very nice composition but its length can be problem for some people. It would have been much better if it was around 4-5 minutes.

3. Dilli-6

Next comes the title song of the movie, Dilli 6. Honestly, it somewhat reminds me of the Rang De Basanti era, which is not a bad thing as it was a classic soundtrack itself. One enthralling thing about the song is the French lyrics, which are beautifully mixed with the song. Sung by Blaze, Benny, Tanvi, Viviane, and Claire, Dilli 6 is surely the next big thing, at least among the Delhi crowd. The chorus can really stick with Delhi “Yeh Delhi hai mere yaar, bas ishq mohabbat pyaar”, which is beautifully written by Prasoon Joshi.

Composition of the song is outstanding, and one thing which also favors the song is its short length, which can really help it to become a chartbuster.

4. Rehna Tu

With Rehna Tu, A R Rahman decides to hold the mic himself, and I’m really glad he did. This song is one of those which you want to listen after closing your eyes and want to forget everything. Believe me the music has a very soothing feel. Everything about Rehna Tu is perfect.

5. Hey Kaala Bandar

Another entry to Bollywood’s weirdest song titles, Hey Kaala Bandar is another nice song which surely will appeal to youngistan. I only wonder how they would use this song in the movie but I guess I’ve to wait for the promo or the movie itself. Karthik, Naresh Srinivas, and Bony Chakravorty are in top form and the background melody, which is used in the intro, is marvelous.

6. Dil Gira Dafatan

Dil Gira Dafatan starts slowly and steadily grabs your attention, all thanks to the wonderful voice of Ash King and background vocals of Chinmayee.

7. Genda Phool

Genda Phool is a regional song and I’m guessing Rajasthan, correct me if I’m wrong. It could have done in two ways; either using the classic instruments or with the modern music (read hip-hop) and I’m really glad that Rahman decided to go for the latter. Genda Phool is a nice surprise of the soundtrack, and undoubtedly, the second best song after Masakali.

Rahman proves his musical talent again by making this regional song into a youth oriented song. I’ve to say I’m really impressed with this song and it’ll surely make our youngistan listen to some regional stuff.

8. Bhor Bhaye

Bhor Bhaye is your classical song which is sampled from an old song and it gives Shreaya Ghoshal a perfect opportunity to showcase her talent. To accompany her, there is Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan.

9. Aarti

Aarti, as it is obvious from the name, is a prayer, which is really beautiful. The next time your mom complain that you’re too much into Roadies and western culture and don’t prayer then switch on this song, you’ll be happy and she’ll be happy, too.

10. Noor

To end the soundtrack, there is a little poem written by Prasoon Joshi, and recited by non other, Amitabh Bachan. A perfect way to end this marvelous soundtrack.

Verdict – Delhi 6 is undoubtedly an outstanding album, and will be remembered as one of Rahman’s best work. Masakali and Genda Phool shines in the soundtrack and would be the best songs of 2009. The soundtrack also comprises of chartbuster songs; Dilli 6, and Hey Kaala Bandar. In a nutshell, soundtrack of Delhi 6 is phantasmagorical. Go out and buy it!

And to Rahman’s fans, who were saying Yuvvraaj and Ghajini are classic albums, listen to this and you’ll find out what a masterpiece is and what are the standards of A.R. Rahman.

Indian Politics – A True Wonder

newsdose

We all know about the Seven Wonders of the World, but if we get a chance to add one more item to that consequential list, then that would be, undoubtedly, The Indian Politics. It is one piece of shit which, we the people of India love to hate, even more than John Abraham’s acting, Rakhi Sawant’s annoying voice and Ekta Kapoor’s unpalatable serials.

Although maneuvering a country is reckoned to be the most important job, but in India, you don’t need to pass IIT, AIEEE or even the Fifth grade to enter in politics. All you need is to perpetrate couple of murders, ten rapes with additional 5 gang rapes for higher political positions, ability to backstab anyone at any given time even during masturbation, wherewithal to throw shoes, tomatoes etc at each other during parliament sessions and the last and the most important, knowledge to operate a basic computer with broadband connection in order to start Swiss accounts to deposit all the money robbed from poor people, download porn from desi sites and to write poisonous compact disks against other religions so as to start riots.

NewsDose: So, in order to make the youth of India more familiar with this cunt eating government job and the current problems of India, The News Dose in association with AajTak and CNN-IBN, has organized a special program for the viewers, “Indian Politics – Fuck Me? Fuck You!”

CNN-IBN: We would like to welcome all the politicians and the celebrities who cared to come on this show.

*Rented Youth audience ready with eggs, tomatoes, buckets full of piss and shit and DVDs of Tashan to throw at the politicians.*

NewsDose: So, we are going to start with the hot burning topic of the Nation, The Nuclear Deal, and the first question goes to CPIM leader, Sitaram Yechury, who is opposing this deal. Why are you so much against this deal?

Sitaram Yechury: Well, first of all I want to say that I don’t have any problem with the Congress. It is the US people whom I hate the most.

NewsDose: What is the reason behind so much hate?

Sitaram Yechury: I requested George W Bush to send me a copy of Playboy on my birthday, but he refused to do it. Then I asked the owner of the magazine, Hugh Hefner, to start the magazine in India. He also refused my request. You tell me, they can read our Love Book, The Kama sutra, then why can’t they start this titillating magazine for the perverts Indian men. Don’t you think it is unfair?

Rakhi Sawant: Yes, it is totally unfair for the Indian women too, especially like me. I also want to pose nude for the magazine so that Indian men can buy it and start playing with their dicks and then cum on my face, on my pictures that is.

Random Guy from the audience: Take off your clothes slut; I’ll shoot you with both my camera and my dick.

*Rakhi happy and taking the random guy in the corner*

Sonia Gandhi: I can be a Playboy model for you, if you agree to support us with nuclear deal, ok Sitaram?

Sitaram Yechury: Fuck Yeah! Now you are talking!

*Left and Congress celebrating*

CNN-IBN: Phew, one issue is solved. So, let’s move on to next issue, Inflation. Anyone wants to ask a question to Mr. Chidambaram?

Amar Singh: Yes, I’ve a question. Why prices of commodities are rising even faster than Abhishek’s dick, when he saw Aishwarya naked for the first time?

NewsDose: How do you know about Abhishek’s dick? Is there any sex tape that we don’t know?

Amar Singh: I know everything, you ass hole NewsDose. He is Amitabh’s son and genetically, their dick rising speed matches. And how do I know Amitabh’s speed? Well, we always share the room and kick out Jaya Bachan. I measured his speed when he saw me naked for the first time.

*Amar Singh and Amitabh blushing*

Amitabh: I hope all the youngsters sitting here are learning something.

Random Guy from the audience: Yeah oldie with a booby, I’ve learnt that, how to be a gay at the age of 60.

*Youngistan cheering for the Random Guy*

*Random guy again busy in shooting Rakhi Sawant*

NewsDose: Dr. Manmohan Singh, you are very quiet today, what is the deal?

Manmohan: Actually, Sonia madam has gone with Sitaram, so, I’m waiting for her to come and tell me what to speak.

AajTak: Where is the hell is, The Great Khali? He is not interested in politics? Damn! Listen guys, we’ve to make a one hour show on this issue. We’ll call it, “Khali tune kiya videshi slut ko kiss to bhool gaya India ki politics?”

Youngistan: Go and suck Khali’s dick, you motherfucking TV channel.

NewsDose: Ok, now we’ve Raghu Ram with us. He is here to ask the youth of India a couple of questions.

Raghu: Ok the guy in pink shirt, come here.

*Pinku going to stage*

Raghu: So tell me, what do you want to become in life?

Pinku: I want to clear IIT, AIEEE and all the entrance exams and then become an engineer.

Raghu: Great! Which engineer?

Pinku: Hmmm I haven’t decided it yet, I’m confused between software, mechanical, civil and Electronic. Can you give any suggestion? Don’t tell me to enter politics; I hate this piece of shit.

Raghu: Yes, I’ve a suggestion, go fuck yourself motherfucker. People like you are of no use to this country. I want to be an engineer, what engineer? I don’t know. This is the future of India? Go and die you cock sucker.

CNN-IBN: Cool down Raghu, they are just wannabe engineers just like Tusshar Kapoor, Zayed Khan and Katrina Kaif, who are wannabe actors.

Raghu: Yeah, I understand. Even those 20 sluts in Splitsvilla are better than these doltish assholes. At least, they know that they want to be money grubbing whores for the rest of their lives.

*Youngistan protesting against Raghu and NewsDose because becoming an Engineer or a Doctor is religion to them.*

Youngistan: You both assholes, you never cleared any exam yourself and you are telling us to do what with our lives? Die losers!

Raghu: We are doing this for the welfare of our country. We need creative minds, not coolies like you.

*Youngistan running after Raghu and NewsDose to kill them*

*Manmohan still waiting for Sonia Gandhi to come from her Playboy photo shoot, so that he can say something.*

*Random guy almost died after giving so many shots to Rakhi. She never gets satisfied.*

CNN-IBN: This is the end of the first part of our show, “Indian Politics- Fuck Me? Fuck You!” We’ll come back later with more politics, celebrities and latest scandals including Aarushi Murder case. Ciao.
