Swades: Mohan basks in the adoring gaze of 'mother' and wife

Friends,

You might also want to check out my paper on "Love, devotion, and service: retelling the Râmâyana in Gowarikar's Homeland (Swades)," posted today at the hyperlink you'll find in the info box above (top right).

It is being presented at the DANAM (Dharma Association of North America) panel (09 Nov 2009) at the American Academy of Religions (AAR) conference at Montreal.

wths the name of the song==`???at 2:06???love this song plzz reply

I don't think it's a song proper, just a brief soundtrack from AR Rehman for this sequence only. Unlike the yearning of the nostalgic "Yah jo des hai terâ," this is probably meant to capture the excitement of the return home (âyo re). - Sunthar

This wordless exhilaration and expectation of this track might be better appreciated when set off against the expressive and introspective lyrics AR Rehman's preceding "Yah jo des hai terâ" - Sunthar

Friends,

You might appreciate Swades better when you see it again after reading my ongoing review of its aesthetics entitled the "Science of love: look into Gîtâ's eyes in the Homeland."

Click on my user-name above, and when you get to my YouTube profile, click on the link to my svAbhinava website: you'll see the link to the review in the "What's New" section, top of the left sidebar (unfortunately, URLs don't seem to be permitted in these comments).

Enjoy!
