  • Kwaja Mere Kwaja.,Faaya Kun Faaya............i think these are for Jagjit Singh......RIP :(

  • fucker sonu nigam....

  • With due respect to the late Jagjit Singh ,I loved his music,style of compositions,introduction of modern instruments into light ghazals &geets&his lovely voice but to say that AR cannot compose ghazal is totally untrue,AR if wishes can compose the greatest ghazal album provided he gets the right poetry & a great ghazal singer,yes Jagjit is no more but real music knowledge people do know that Jagjit was Not the best ghazal singer around as far as serious classical singing is concerned,eg.Ghulam

  • margaya kutha ab es jalousy ka jawab udhar dedena

  • look man jagjitji and reheman deal with diffrent types of song types jagjit ji was right at his part and reheman is right at his part

  • Jagit passed away...problem over...leave it.

  • Well I am not a South Indian, but this comment by Mr. Singh is absolutely baseless and wrong. Though I consider that AR Rehman has composed much better music than the one that was awarded, but what is this greatness about composing a ghazal if someone gets josh! This is ridiculous at best, and cynical at worst. I do not even listen to Rehman music myself, but no body can deny that he composes beautiful and complex pieces.

  • who is jagit singh ???

  • Dear Friend

    I am happy that you addressed me as friend; that itself shows your good nature. Call it by whatever word-ignorance, jealousy, envy, stupidity, etc.-it is really sad that such comments were made (they should never have been made) by a person who himself has reached great heights. Let nobody criticize or disrespect others publicly. Each and every person in this universe is unique in some aspect or other. God bless all...

    Thank you and take care

  • Songs like Jashne Bahara, Khwaja Mere Khwaja, Kun Faya Kun, Ae Hairathe and lots more are spiritual songs. They are as good as ghazals.

    Now it clearly shows that Jagjit Singh has got inferiority complex.

  • Jagjit Sing fuck u. dont blame others. just enjoy d music n fuck your wife idiot

  • I totally agree with Jagit Singh...I thought no one else noticed...With all due respect to AR...I've always felt that his mucic was not original...Too much western influence.....

  • @jairaj721 de bastarad fuck the ass what do you know about music says like influence in western and karnatic

    sala

  • The present-day world is mostly dominated by negative aspects and India too is following suit. God's greatest and worst creation shall definitely be human beings. As Sigmund Freud said: The goal of all life is Death. Only Death will bring peace to all. The Master (Death) will lead each one of us...

  • Sallam I am 4m Azad Kashmir and likes art and loves Artists.I likes both AR n Jagjit but Jagjit should never had to talk like that AR have composed very different n brilliant music and also composed n sung Qawalies also which are very famous whereas Jagjit only sings Ghazals if he is challenging AR to compose Ghazals then he should also think about the fact that can he sing songs like Dil Se, Jay ho etc.Every body has his own style of music.

  • Jagit Singh I want to fuck your daughter because you say bad words for The Legend AR-Rehman.

  • this is pure jealousy...u cant help a man go up a level thts fine..but dnt try pull him down or criticise his success..

  • absolutely

  • I Respect Jagjit ........ but WTF ????

  • to people on here thats knocking out ghazal music...sorry to say u guys don't have ear for music..how wud u put it??...u kno its like ophra music is to white people...thats how ghazal is to ghazal lovers.. u really have to listen from your heart!!! rip Jagjit sing ji you will be missed and your music is evergreen!!

  • With all respects to the recently departed soul, JAGJIT SINGH, he was wrong! He speaks as if Ghazal is the ultimate form of music. I know numerous people who dont enjoy Ghazal (me included). But I dont disrespect Ghazal singers and Ghazal lovers. Same way, other music should be respected. Rahman has done all kinds of music.

  • who the hell is this jagit singh?

  • @mahimaha147 Jagjit Sing is dead now.

    so let him stay where he is In HELL.

  • FOOLS! India has the richest culture on the planet... you people are dancing and bragging just because AR rehman got oscar?

    AR rehman is talented, no doubt, but his stature doesn't overwhelm that of Indian classical music.

    jagjit sing is 100% correct is asking AR rehman to compose ghazals.... AR rehman is a contemporary artiste, and Ghazal music is the pinnacle of all music.... hence he should try his skills in this genre as well...

  • it's fully jealous about A R from Jagit singh he is in the music field last 30 year but he don't know how to speak about other composer in media

  • Jagjit Singh was angry only because Ghaxal has not been given importance over Bollywood music. Earlier there used be lot of ghazals in movies but things have changed now. He wanted Music directors to include ghazals in movies. I am pretty sure he had no grudge against Rahman. he was a good guy. Comparing Rahman to him is like comparing Apple to Oranges. Both r the master of their art.

  • wtf the BEST MUSIC DIRECTOR IS ILLAYARAJA. can Jagit singh say anything about ILLAYARAJAH, one of the best music directors in the world?? He himself praises A.r rahman, Jagit singh's got nothing on A.r rahman. Stupid north indians always have to hate on south indians cus we achiece success in every field that they do :)

  • RIP Jagjit ji.

    Read Rahman's condolence statement - it was as if Jagjit never challenged him. The man doesn't have a single bad bone in his body. There will always be critics of his music but there is a lot to learn from Rahman, the person. Despite reaching great heights, he has remained a humble person.

  • well.. I knew there is one person Jagit Singh in indian music world to talk against ARR. Gud! There should be Faroas against Moses and Ravan against Raman... but I wonder is there enough room for the middle fingers of the dislikers of this video????

  • sorry to say i think ur kid in music world that why u dont know who is JAGJIT SING.

  • you'll understand this statement in my first comment only.... i already told i dont know who is jagith singh.... and baseless is wat he and you telling about ARR not me...

  • jealousy...

    

  • For sure A.R.Rehman is a good music director, no doubt. If he is a great music director with a few hit songs then he is no close to other great music directors of Hindi films like S.d.Burman, Naushad, Shankar Jaikishan, O.P.Nayyar, Lakshmikant Pyarelal, Kalyanji Anandji who have countless hit songs to their name. Question is why AR got reconignised for this song whereas he has much better other composed songs and that award raise a question.

  • Jagjit Singh was a great singer and A.R. Rahman can come even near him.

  • Aap Log es baat ko kyo nahi samjhte hai ki AR ek versetile artist hai wo sirf Ghazal me simit nahi rah sakte music aur ghazal do alag cheez hai Ghazals me music se jyada lyrics importence rakhta hai jabki Music ko aap sirf Ghazal tak seemit nahi kar sakte Dono me kisi bhi parkar ka compr karna Bewakufi hogi

    Jha mujhe chithi na koi sandeh jaise payre nagmo ka sauka hai joki app ko alag tarah ke mahaul se jodte hai wahi doosri taraf ar rahman ka Missing Vande matrem ....

  • this old man has no respect for himself..talking about younger musicians

  • A R Rehman mera lund ka ssupada hai..aur chutiya hai bhosadi ka

  • Listen to "Udaya Udaya Ularugiren" from the movie "Udaya". All respect to Jagjit Singh (rest in peace) but I think he was drunk in this interview.

  • A R Rehman is my dick head ..my salute to jagjit singh...In bollywood music will hit when lyrics will be powerful and because off Gulzar Sir, Rehman CHUTIYA has got Oscar..but there are more deserving candidate like Shanker mahadevan and jatin lalit still here

  • @dyfydd hes ur dick head? buddy ur his fucking shit

  • @Ak140106 Chutiye..wats your problem..i think your mom has fucked by A R Rehman..

    And He is not only my Dick head but also a hair of my butt.. you are really such a bhosadi ka chotiya

  • @dyfydd honestly ur prob uneducated no wonder u talk about moms. Maybe ur mom is like that..

  • @Ak140106 listen chutiye ..this is the public platform and i have enough freedom to express my view ..why you fucking interrupting on my comments and please dont talk about my edu..coz I`m more educated than you and can fuck you in more ways that you cant imagine..bhosadi ke .gadhe ..FUCK OFF

  • i fink that jaggit singh is really jealous.... poor interview

  • Jagjit Singh is a Chootiya.

  • @ chakdegirl mujhe to guru flim ka music pasand nahin hai ..yeh koi gana hai tere bina besuyadi besuadi ratiyaa.....................

  • jagit singh...jalta hai be rahman se....rahman best music director hai india ka....aur pehla music director who holds a grammy award....d oscar of music world...;)

  • This fucking old man is Jealus, thsi is the problem in India ...when some one get recognition others LOOSERs are Jelous, I used to consider him a very good man now JAGJEET's real face has shown.........how pathetic

  • jagdish singh sucks,, & sucks hard ,,,,,,,,, he is sssooooo.... jealus... gzal arist

  • Jagit Singh is a moderate Ghazal singer

    Ghulam Ali is the BEST

    Jagit Singh is a DONKEY lolz

    no my words but words of Nasser Hussain!!

  • both r atom boomb

  • Indians have always appreciated what westerners did indiansdid not realize what rahman is especially jagjit singh he needs to grow up and accept the reality remind you he is good but not as good as rehman.

  • I m a both Rehman & Jagjit Singhji's fan but why dont we agree that Rehman is expert in arrangement while Jagjitji is king of melody. I think good music is more about melody than just arrangement.

  • Behosh jaggu ko khabar kya....Rahman kya cheez hain.........

  • @madhuprakasan Rehman is normal cheese and Jagjit Singh is mozarella

  • jalta hai bhudda 

  • hey gaaandu jagjit...  u r a peice of shit... that s all...

  • u r the real g****

  • @rajeshniit ... u r a piece of shit... 

  • I think Jagjit Singh is expressing his anger/frustration because ARR has not given him even one chance so far :P.

  • most of the people in India don't know who is Jagit Singh...but the world knows who is AR Rahman....this video sounds like an old man showing his agony of jealousy on ARR.....pointless and negligible...ARR is a real good face of India in the World musicians works....true or false????

  • @samsonyesupatham Baqwas. Myself and many others have been of the opinion that AR Rehman has been an overhyped musician with moderate talent since his Roja days. Finally someone of seniority has the guts to call a spade a spade. Jagjit Singh can just decide to not comment on something of this nature, but these words NEEDED TO BE SAID. Enough dumbing down of Indian music, thank you.

  • @MusicMan2065 with these many glorious years where is or who is taken Indian music to anywhere outside???

    besides everybody have there own way creating music....if ARR is making Indian music dumb why is everybody is singing his song....I'm in england, ARR new band in on news paper like all the time in here....who is dumb here...

  • @samsonyesupatham funny his albums are released and marketing widely only in england. back home here, AR only makes news when there is some overbudgeted movie to cash in on. and even then he has nothing new to offer ne more.

  • @adityanaikdesai lets simplify this for you.... name somebody famous in music field who is be approved by all over India and all over the world now.....AR is incomparable with nobody like Sachin for cricket in India....

  • are you kidding? how old are you? 6? mangeshkar sisters alone bury your argument. and before you argue they are past, asha still performs.

    whose approval do you talk about? public, or the paid media that is willing to parade even freida pinto as a superstar. if you're willing to talk outside of bollywood. you have a hoarde of classical singers and performers.

    as for being comparable to sachin in terms of impact, you mustve heard of kishore da? or rd burman?

  • @adityanaikdesai seriously its pointless argument with you..ARR is a music composer and a singer..were as Mangeshkar sisters are playback singers...do you know the difference between these two professions singing and composing...even in this video Jagjit Singh telling ARR to "compose" not to sing.

    i talk about both.criticising of someone's success will be there always..cant help it they are jealous..

    as far as Kishore da and Rd Burman concern i'm not talking coz i'm only 22 not 70 years old.

  • please educate me about this difference between two professions.

  • @adityanaikdesai I'm sure you know the difference between composing and singing. In the south, composers command more respect than singers since they compose the tune, musical arrangements and choose the singers. Singers have limited scope as they have to perform and improvise within the scope of the tune (not saying that is easy, mind you). It might be different in the north - all the northies I have talked to have more respect for Lata or Rafi than RDB or Salil.

  • @adityanaikdesai That should also explain why Ilayaraja is venerated in the south but not so much in the north. Do you know that Ilayaraja has composed for more than 900 movies (and counting) in addition to several other devotional and fusion albums. No disrespect to any singer but do you think any singer's achievement compares to that?

    Composers are like both system programmers who can do applications also, singers are like application programmers:-)

  • @shaun19475 :) good 1 dude. but thts exactly what im saying. most of the time we dnt know much abt a singer or an artist or composer , except wht we see n hear in media. like you say, rehman is not all abt jaiho. he has and will do better work thn tht and in other languages too. but thn so does jagjit have other talents himself. he composed and wrote as well sang. now if a composer is greater thn a singer, some1 who does both . . . well

  • @adityanaikdesai I have nothing but respect for Jagjit ji. But, I can't accept that you could be considered a great only if you compose ghazals. There are other genres of music that are equally great. I don't think Ilayaraja has composed too many, if any, ghazals but he has composed a WC Symphony. The fact that Jagjit isn't an exponent in WC music doesn't make him ordinary. Same way, Rahman is also good. Problem with some legends is that they tend to look down upon other forms of music.

  • @samsonyesupatham since you ask. . . quite false. and the world does know jagjit singh. he has been having live performances all over the world since before AR even got his first song.

    besides, jagjit made his name and fame in an era where publicity and media attention were hard to get.

    rehman has benefitted a lot (deservedly or not) from an age where exaggerated and manipulated / false publicity are a way of life.

  • @adityanaikdesai i would disagree with your opinion in almost all the point ... but as of now he is no more i feel its better to pray for his soul to be rest is peace i think that's what ARR would've been done too..... RIP Jagjit Singh.

  • you dnt have to be any age to appreciate what kishore kumar and rd burman have done for indian music. just look around at the countless fims named after their songs, or the remixes that have snatches of their music. even the best of today still imitate them and their style. timeless stuff. . .

    same goes for jagjit.

    now rehman, hes had his days. but today ppl are appreciating stuff like devd more thn a guru, yuvraj or raavan. or even the jai ho track.

  • @adityanaikdesai i totally agree i dont have the age....but you being cynical to give bad critics on ARR tracks... never forget he is the only Indian to get a double Oscar in this competitive world that cannot be a mistake dont u think????????

  • @samsonyesupatham

    this conversation wasn't abt me criticising rehman, but about this comment of yours: ".this video sounds like an old man showing his agony of jealousy on ARR.....pointless and negligible..." he was asked a Q, ne he answered it. period.

    as for the oscars, i dnt think being accepted - or not - by the west makes any of our music, or musicians any more or less enjoyable. And it is widely agreed that jai ho is hardly one of his better works.

    *double oscar? gulzar was also thr

  • @adityanaikdesai i not taking it back.... and as i already told u he is no more now and its not fair on me to comment on him when he is not living..

    Gulzar was a part of his second oscar.... and for the same song which u are telling its not the best works ARR got not only oscar but also a BAFTA and a Golden globe..... i'm being in this new generation i've seen this time of our independence and republic days wishes changed from "jai hind" to "jai ho" if that sense to you a less impact then u win

  • @samsonyesupatham

    i never asked you to take nething back. just showed you that this conversation isnt about shitty oscars and baftas. you say you dont want to talk ill about a person no longer living. but you already have.

    as for change of anthem or slogan, next im sure youll say that ar rehman is a greater freedom fighter and nationalist than the person who wrote our national anthem or even tagore.

  • @adityanaikdesai

    Jealous....

  • @samsonyesupatham yes. i am jealous of both rehman and jagjit. simply for who they are and what they have done. but that dsnt make me dislike either of them just because one of them said something about the other.

  • @adityanaikdesai fair enough... i like only ARR... no matter who say wat....

  • @samsonyesupatham which makes all other comments from you entirely biased and baseless. thanks. good night.

  • @samsonyesupatham, k, cut the bragging, he won a double oscar, he din't win the nobel prize k...

  • @8caligula1 as if jagjith won something.... u cut it off....

  • @adityanaikdesai devd might have been more popular in the north but Rahman is still a hot property all over India. In 2010, he composed 3 tamil albums:"vinnaithaandi varuvaaya", "Raavanan" and "Enthiran". All of them were well received. Mind you, there is no dearth of talent in the south - Ilayaraja is still the best, Yuvan, Harris and others. Hype can only take a person so far. Rahman has been around for around 20 yrs and still going strong. Forget "jai ho", did you listen to "127 hours"?

  • @shaun19475 let me put it this way. why does rehman only reinvent himself for SI film music. why does the wider audience get the same old rehman every film of late?

  • @samsonyesupatham, there are two categories of people in india who don't know who is jagjit sing:

    1. the uncultured

    2. the deaf

  • @8caligula1 talk for yourself....

  • @TheSamsonCompany, ok, u win

  • @8caligula1 seriously.... uncultured...... this jealous old man just come out of his closet and shouts in the media on some one of his own profession just to take the attraction on him .... wat kind of culture is that?

  • Jagjith Sir, why you calling AR to compose a Ghazals, why don't you try to do a filmy classical try to cover the audience, are you thing you can take over him. If you jealous keep inside, if it is reflects in your words, you bringing down your dignity yourself. Your voice is so soothing, is your attitude also the same?, you have to find-out the answer in you. Even though is one declared as you are the King of Ghazals?, we like and respect Usthad Ghulam Ali, Ustad Pankaj.....

  • that is ur problem ra*

  • Comment removed

  • i agree with jagjit singh. not at all doubt the contibution of jagjit singh. he has been giving music other than filmi for last four decades . no one has that much contribution to music in India. as far as rehman is concernrd , he is the most hyped celebrity ever in india. he has given 4or five good music till today. his music is not at all soothing. he is a good sound recordist but great music director , NO & never

  • @mrlokesh6922 Thank you sir for your comments :) You have stated the fact which ppl are not able to digest as they say truth hurts.

  • @Samar952

    Btw, Jagit Singh isn't famous throughout India. There are many people who may not have heard about him. But the whole of India, even a beggar on the street, knows A.R.Rahman. That's ARR for you. This is even before he got the oscars. But in my opinion, his slumdog millionaire music wasn't worthy of an Oscar. His older works were light years ahead of his work in Slumdog.

  • @mrlokesh6922

    Shows how little you know about ARR and his music. I don't know about Jagit Singh but the very fact that he challenged some other Music director after he has won 2 oscar awards tells me that he is nothing but jealous. No humble musician will challenge another fellow musician like this. Btw, I can surely say you know nothing about the number of ARR songs that have timeless appeal.

    4 or 5 good music? Well, what does that mean?

  • @mrlokesh6922

    THIS IS CALLED VERSTLTY

    yo dont accept new music every time rathr u lyk old wine in new bottle

    jagjeet is better singer than ar no doubt but as a human being and music director he is best

  • Rahman is a musical genius but I just wanna ask Jagjit Singh if he can compose a rock song or a commercial pop song for that matter....Compare yourself when you can do something exceptionally different from your genre

  • kutte jagjeet goes home listens to ghulam ali secretly and masturbates dreaming as if its his voice..... LOL.....but other than this asshole india is a very good nation and has many many talented artists .....

  • @haluakhan ha ha ha ha.....no wonder Ghulam Ali has done more concerts than Jagjit Singh.........i can understand why u favour Ghulam Ali and not Shri Jagjit Singh, who is a true INDIAN and attached to his culture and roots...........hats off to Jagjit Singh and other Indians who are not bothered bout comments made by ppl like you and are still united......JAI HIND (HAR HAR MAHADEV)..............

  • sabko malum hai hamare desh mein, kutta kaun hai :)

  • His challenge to Rahman will only serve to appreciate the legendary of Rahman further.

  • ARR is only doing for getting thru from one movie to another, he is not doing this because he enjoys its or sharing his gift to give others pleasure like Jagjit. I understand there are not ghazals in the movies, but who wants to watch actors lipsync'ing ghazals in movies. Ghazals were meant to be desired and appreciated which ARR will never get it. Jagjit has a historically trumped one ghazal after another and has been successful for decades. ARR just woke up yesterday copying songs.

  • Who is this JAgjet ...cant even pronounce...

  • @kosopet Dude its JAGJIT SINGH......and for you would appreciate if you could prefix SHRI before the master's name............ lemme know if you need help in pronouncing the name....would love to give free classes to ppl like u who dnt know to pronounce the king of ghazals name......

  • @Samar952 you can put your gazal inside your ass and pull it out of your mouth. lol......there's no one who compares to A.R. Rahman. Jagjit Singh is just like Bappi Lahiri, Anu Malik or Ismail Darbar, who got no work other than barking at succesful people like street dogs. lol

  • @papan1990 i really feel sad for u Papan.....assholes like you are responsible for making assholes like AR Rahman be in dis industry. As far as putting ghazals in my ass, i suggest you take all da CD's (including ur music player) and shove it up ur ass as i think its pretty big, it can accomodate all dat, as you are speaking only thru ur ass and not thru ur mind. Lemme know once ur done wid it..

  • @papan1990 what a lame comeback....lol, Look at "asshole" Rahman, he's earning applauds from around the world as well as from his country. No one knows or gives a fuck about Jagjit Singh or fossils like him. Don't you get it? He's hungry for an award. And he's damn jealous. Just look at the number of dislikes to this video and you'll get my point. On the contrary, I dont take pity from people who got no taste in music. So....you can put your "feeling sad" inside your candy ass.....hahahaha

  • @papan1990 ha ha ha ha....u know ur comments don't bother me or any of Jagjit Singh's fans out there.....to reiterate ur partner AR Rahman is in da industry due to assholes and hypocrites like u.......Jagjit Singh doesn't need to buy any award, he knows he's da best........he's jealous of Rahman?????? why????? just because Rahman changed his religion to earn money and jagjit didn't do that??????just because jagjit Singh's voice and music is awesome, he's jealous??? Get a life loser....

  • @Samar952 surely my comments bother you, thats the reason you keep replying back. Jagjit Singh is not match for Rahman. Rahman is a maestro in all music genres in India. Jagjit is just good at ghazals. And obviously Jagjit is jealous, coz he doesn't have a fucking award. You should stop being jealous too and try getting a life rather than criticising a successful like a whiner dog. You're the one in need of life......................LOSE­R.

  • @papan1990 you illitrate asshole, u need to do some homework....which unfortunately u didn't do during your school days....dats da reason ur in dis state today......Jagjit Singh's songs in bollywood movies are more famous than his Ghazals. Entire nation still remembers his number "Hoton Se Choolo Tum" from movie Prem Geet (released in 1981). That was some 30 yrs back. Anybody fucking remembers wat Rahman composed or sung 2 yrs back?????? You are fucking worse than a dog........

  • @Samar952 LOL....you're the one abusing and you call me illiterate? You sound like a beggar dude....You got a really low standard of talking when you dont win in an argument. My job is done. No body gives a damn about Jagjit Singh and his stupid song(s). lol. The entire world knows A.R. Rahman and will continue to appreciate him, despite the fact that there are some people like you who dont understand or know real music. lol. Next time make a comeback with a better reply. hahaha

  • @Samar952

    2 years back? I can tell you of a song ARR composed almost 2 decades back! Shows the ignorance in you. The entire nation still remembers ARR's haunting melodies in Bombay, Roja, Dil Se etc etc. I'm sorry but ARR came into the field only by 1992 so I can't give you a song before that. But there is another MD Illayaraja. "Senthazahm poovil" song came in 1978. All of Tamil Nadu still remembers that.

  • @rdp hey bt hoto se chulo tum and chitti na koi are fabuls no. bt .. not only singing is imprtent lyrics too music tooo as far as music is concern ar knows better than jagjeet ar is not only limited in same thing as jagjeet

    and what song sung by Jagjeet last year do u remeber

  • Dude its JAGJIT SINGH....would appreciate if you could prefix SHRI before the master's name...........lemme know if you have diffculties in pronouncing the king of Ghazals name .....would love to teach you and other ppl like u..............

  • I hated that movie Slum Dog and his slummy song Jai Ho!

  • Jagjit and Mehndi Hassan both truly have a gift that they take their time, as far as, A.R. Rahman, he is doing this only to make it thru a movie song. So he cheapens and devalues a beautiful poem (such as Gulzar's poems) by making it a cheap bollywood song. Ghazals don't come by too often, but you can hear A.R Rahman everywhere and I can see where Jagjit is coming from now. Plagiarizing will only get him so far before he gets caught.

  • Pankaj Udhas is "has been" he should really shut up because he is terrible singer. Jagjit takes a poem and makes it beautiful with singing it. It takes a lot of guts to actually take a classic poem to make it a ghazal like Jagjit and Mehndi Hassan.

  • Jagjit is very well known and very creative singer. I would hate to be in his bad list. Maybe A.R. Rahman stole his song, who knows, but I am only biased because I am Jagjit's diehard fan. I don't think the world respects A.R. Rahman like Jagjit because Jagjit has been singing for decades and knows his stuff...as far as A.R. Rahman goes, he is just starting with this his gift, its hard not to like them both.

  • Thats ingrish....

  • THE WORLD KNOWS AND RESPECTS AR RAHMAN. WHO THE HELL IS JAGIT

  • Sala jallu...

    Jagajit singh sings gazzal since he cannot sing anything else...Also he may be great as he has some good gazzals but I like to listen to Gulam ali, Ustad Amir Khan, Nustart Fateh ali khan..thoes guys can create MEHEFIL with their gazzal and associating single tabla player and some string instruments.

    For Jagjit, more fiddle and piano team than audience.

    He is jealous of rahman. Jagit try to appreciate others and share your view in person to Rahman how bad he is.

  • All you ignorant fools u say Jagjit Singh is Jealous of some AR Rahman? U idiots need to wake up rite now. Jagjit Singh is the god of music, there's no better singer, music director and composer like him. Who da fuck is AR Rahman????? Jai ho Jai ho????? AR Rahman, pehle tu music industry se bahar ho......bahar ho........This is all i can say to ignorant ppl who feel Jagjit Singh is Jealous of some bugger like AR Rahman.

  • @Samar952 Thank you Thank you so much for saying exactly what was in my mind! Jai ho, is such a cheap song and A.R. Rahman is desperate now he is stealing poem and making them into cheap bollywood songs.

  • @Najma202 I'm really surprised how ppl can make such a comparison between Jagjit Singh and AR Rahman? You get mesmerised with Shri Jagjit Singh's voice which i feel is becoming better over the years (like old wine) and you tend to forget all da problems in the world when you listen to Sh. Jagjit Singh. AR Rahman....all i can say is irritates you to the core and has a voice like u want to feel that u should hate music. AR Rahman is a monotonous music director with same kinda music and songs.

  • @Samar952 You must be pretty good if you can call Rahman Monotonous and boring! Where do you keep your oscar awards?

  • @dinboy778 cmon dude grow up.....everybody knows awards are not won, they are bought.....just because slum dog millionaire was made by a foreigner it won an oscar. Do you think if it was made by an indian, it wud have even qualified for an oscar?????? Your comments won't change da fact about whose better amongst the two.....learn to respect ppl like Shri Jagjit Singh who are still attached to their culture and u can still feel dat in their music and songs.......

  • @Samar952

    I have no disrespect for Jagjit singh. That previous question was for you.

    My disrespect is reserved for people who belittle one legend to make another legend look better!

  • @dinboy778 i know truth hurts dude.........according to you AR Rahman mite be a legend, but according to me he's not...we all have our own opinions.......i have all da rite to criticise if i don't like somebody and nobody can do anythin bout it......can they?????????

  • Aagra tere ko thoda chade tho Ghazal ke siva kuch aur gaake suna be saale...

  • Humility is the quality of an artist, Mr Jealous Singh!!!.

  • Kehna he Kya, Jiya Jale, Thuhire, songs from 1947 Earth... and there are numerous Gazal type of songs in Tamil as well to point out the class and ability of AR Rahman. He is much superior to Jagjith Singh!

    I can understand Jagjith Singh's jealous towards AR, but failed to understand what Sonu Nigham was trying to say there! AR Rahman is the one revived Sonu's career by giving him main stream Bollywood songs in his movies! Ohh Thankless, you have a new name now, It is Sonu Nigham!

  • @TheForsan1 ....sonu nigam was being sarcastic...

  • Rahman is One man, who has Knowledge of Music from Western to gulf east to any corner, Betting him is nothing but shitting yourself.

  • There's no wonder, if Jagjit challenges Rahman, after all Rahman took their life away, career away, there is nothing surprising about this, coz they are so jealous of him.

  • who d hell is jagit singh ...it ll leads to a second question , who s he

    but 4 ARR no need a 2nd question in india

  • jagjit is bestever in composition writing singing he is a living legend.

  • Mr. Jagjeet SIngh, What Rahman does is the requirement of the movie and the movie makers. He can easily do it, He has done Bhajans like Man Mohana, O paalanhaare, He has done classicals like Man Mohini, He has done sufi like Haji Ali, and Khwaja...and he also does western...what he does is the requirement of the project...If you think you are a complete musicians can you give what Rahman gives? NO.... he is the master of varied form of Indian and western Music....

    DONT BE JEALOUS......

  • Go figure.. jagjit singh is Indian and Pankaj Udhas is Pakistani... that tells you a lot about what the people of these two countries think !!!

  • Both Are Great

  • who is jagjit singh?

  • @rafiq575

    rightly said ...... thanks ... this will be the appropriate answer to jealous jagjit...

  • Comment removed

  • I do like & appreciate Jagjit Singh but what he said about AR Rahman is totally wrong.Rahman is a very versatile musician & what Alka Yagnik said is totally right that songs are made according the demand of the situation.Anyway Ar Rahman rocks the whole world.

  • Any Music which gives me Joy is good music .. jagjit singh shouldn't have said that .. even I feel ilayaraja has also said something like this against ARR .. I don't want to call Jagjit and Ilayaraja as Jealous but pls ARR has brought lot of proud to India . Ples respect that

  • aye hairathe ashiqui, tere bina and many songs from Kalpana Lajmi movies Earth, Water etc.. And the movie Zebeidaa. People don't listen to that. Jagjit singh is jealous of A R's fame. A R is the one who took Hariharan from the Ghazal world and made him popular all over India. No one has given so many chances for singers from all genre of music including from the classical world like him.

  • AR has given great classical compositions with the lyrics of Gulzar and Javed Akhtrar. Today they don't make movies like Mughal E Azam and Pakeeza. But he did great composition in Jodha Akbar. It was mesmerizing. Jagjit is a loser.

  • @donjuan4you I agreed with you until you mentioned that Jagjit is a loser, I have to correct you here, Jagjit is classic legend. A.R. Rahman maybe good with one or two songs at the most, but he is under a lot of pressure to keep pumping great classics for bollywood movies, he is not doing this from his heart he is doing it under a lot of heat. So really A.R. Rahman is BIG time loser.

  • I love Jagjit's ghazals. But he is a sore loser. He always criticizes new artistes and musicians.

  • rehman started giving rubbish music from "slumdog millionaire" and somehow continued till "127 hours". rehman was good before it. Jagjit singh is all time best ghazal singer.

  • u son of a bitch.......u can never ever come near A.R Rahman.....

  • @rafithboss you are out of your mind

  • '' Aey hairate aashiqui '' from Guru is a ghazal only .......by A R RAHMAN.....

  • @Chakdegirl Oh really???? No wonder nobody's ever heard of it.........Hoton Se Choolo Tum, Tum Itna Jo Muskura Rahe ho, Hosh Walon Ko Khabar Kya...........the list goes on my friend.........take care.........

  • @Samar952 u..have u heard of a blockbuster movie called GURU...if you haven't then google it...

  • @Chakdegirl well i was just being sarcastic.....anyway the day i head AR rahman had given da music for GURU i stopped watching the promos on TV too.......

  • benchod,madarchod,lode ke baal rai ,, harami insaan ,, chutial ,, chinalke,,

    u know wat music is ,, bhosdike jagjit singh

  • helllo peaceeee out every one,....calling a senior person of such calibre a bastard is atrocious....its ok he is of old age and might be pissed with ar rahman...let both of them be,
