It's an old bandish traditionally sung in raga Bihag and best performance so far has been that of Pandit Jasraj. Here, the raga and words have changed.
Seriously can't stop pressing the replay button! I'm so proud of seeing people born and brought up in the US making such amazing fusion music. Please never stop pursuing your passion!
Its nice but Hindi accent is not that accurate, listen the original track from the movie, you will see the pronunciation and pauses are not the same. His Jees are too stretched and word with out pauses......
@ArtHafez I don't think they're trying to replicate it here. I think the point here is self-styling. Also, understand that Aditya is a South Indian who was brought up in the U.S.A.
may be you should sing and let us listen to you, since your accent is good we will be a judge....
First have you tried to sing in studio before you pass comments on others? These guys and girls are only trying out new so there is room to grow .....
for those who liked this guys's voice, find more videos in channel -- VIDHYU ... I really liked his voice... seems that hes gonna give some timeless songs in future
Great voice!!...and fairly good control over its modulation....The percussionist has done a great job too...plus the third one, towards the end especially...way to go
This was an already astonishing song which always gave me goose bumps. To have taken it to this level with the Mridgangam and such classy clarinet interludes is really wondrous. Bravo!
Music videos which should get super popularity remain hidden amongst millions of videos and songs like "Kolaveri Di" become national anthems for people....
Hey Man!! I think your voice is amazing, you should give more songs with Shankar Tucker in the Jazz-Indian Classical Genre... Just a suggestion... You guys are amazing, I am stuck on Shankar Tucker channel on YouTube since last week...
Madam noor jihan (Pakistani legendary singer) sung it in a different tone and tempo all together and the original is very beautiful song. I guess that is the reason he chose this song but I must say he killed it. Kudoz!!! Madam must have been proud if she had heard it.
@madhavir108 : I too like this version. Thats doesn't mean, ARR would have choose this. ARR creates and present in his own way which may not be compared to recreations - as real soul of the song is only in original track. Of cause ARR is the Master...
Thanks to Shankar Tucker for recreating those songs with a lovely presentation. We are waiting for more from you and your team.
@krbalaji2008 Oh don't get me wrong, I LOVE ARR! However, such a beautiful song I felt wasn't utilized properly in the movie.. like I had seen the movie before I heard this version and I actually didn't even remember that track. If he used a more powerful voice than I think that track would have popped more.
mesmerizing... every word of the song was playing tricks... every component in the song was put to its best use, be it the instruments or the voice. :) Thank u...
THE FLUTE IS MIND BLOWING!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT ALONE CAN CARRY THE ENTIRE SONG!!!!!!!! that's how good it is!! but the rest did well but seriously sorry to say it all wld be just a boring cover with out the flute!! <3 <3 <3
Aditya Rao u r amazing ... trust me , when i saw this video , i did liked it . i was feeling manmohini is killed with the lill bit of accent ... and i never looked at this song or listened to it ... but today . i just played and i did not saw the video .... I should say , u sang so amazingly , what a variation in u r voice and took the song in the different level ... put more your video
Shankarji, what would it take to get a copy of this purely instrumental? your solo bit was amazing, and is something I'd like to loop over and over just to listen to, but Aditya's voice (as nice as it is) comes it just a hair too soon. ...i'd pay for a purely instrumental version of all of your tracks, actually! keep it up!
Mathe ki bindiya bhikhar gayi hai, apne hath sajaa ja balaam...........wow wt an amazing performance...this version is indeed better then orginal.......THUMBS UP TO U GUYS......cheers from India :)
Lovely composition. Loved the balance between the mridungam and the flute! Must say a great voice makes the song worth it. Loved the voice completely.
WOO.....YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST.....I AM FROM INDIA..AND I STUDY IN EUROPE...I HAVE COMPLETED MY DIPLOMA IN PERFORMING ARTS WITH VOCAL FROM M.S.UNIVERSITY VADODARA....AND BECAUSE OF CULTURE....I AM NOW METALLER IN BLACK DRESSES..AND I LISTEN HEAVY METAL ONLY..BUT AFTER LISTNING YOU ALL...I WAS FEELING SORRY......GUYS I LOVE INDIA.....YOU GUYS REALLY ROCK....
exctly frnd...Fell so sad when i see these people who dont like all this .... i mean 23 dislikes ... they must be bunch of idiots ... anyway MIND BOBLING voice and song.... cheers :-)
