Slumdog Millionaire(A.R.Rahman and other Assorted artists)

A First listen to the lofty O...Saya should give you a good amount of reason why you should give this soundtrack a listen.It captivates right from the start with Rahman's mesmerizing vocals.Whether it is the slow and soothing Latika's Theme by Suzanne,or the Punchy beats in Riots or whether it is the Pop'ish Millionaire,or the weirdly named but very insteresting Mausam and Escape,This soundtrack has it all for you!..Just when u start thinking that the best song composed by Rahman in this soundtrack is O...Saya,you are bound to change your mind when you listen to Liquid Dance.Palakkad Sriram and Madhumita create magic along with the grandiloquent orchestration.Jai Ho,composed by Rahman too is a fine attempt and is indeed very likeable but the other tracks just kinda drowns this track.The tracks by the other Artists include MIA's Paper Planes and its DFA remix,and Ringa Ringa,which is Choli Ke Peeche revisited and both are fantastic add-ons to this soundtrack.The completely western Gangsta Blues and Suzanne's Second track,Dreams on Fire are Sizzling in every way!!..But Whatever said,Rahman's compositions make the impact in this soundtrack!!..Just When I thought Rahman was off his rocker after listening to his tunes in Ghajini,He springs a complete surprise here.Not that i expected any less of him!!..He reaches the height of consummacy with this soundtrack and of course,deserves quite a bit of veneration!!..This soundtrack is a spellbinder!!..
