Allah hi Reham - Shankar Mahadevan ( Coke Studio @ MTV India )

[vudatalar]

This sets the benchmark for Indian Coke Studio ... Shankarji I salute you for your singing here ... thank you very much! I have goose bumps and tears in my eyes each time I listen to this, even though I am agnostic

[sunjava04]

when we watch coke studio pak...As Indian, we appreciate what they did(see comments in coke studio) it's marvelous work by rohail.

but U cant do the same, its shame!

Rather than talking about religion crap, just enjoy the music.

[hydiish]

Shankar have a good classical touch and he can prove it. He should improve it and should introduce in his bollywood films too. Keep it up Shankar.  Some eys never understand music and they are writing about religions.

[rnjbond]

Brilliant. Gives me hope that Coke Studio India still has hope.

[nileshhud]

Great song

[Shahidmalik440]

@wilsonbruce143 This beautiful song is NOT on Islam. It is about Sufism which trascend all religions.

Regarding definition of a real Indian, I have a lot of reservations.

[wilsonbruce143]

@Shahidmalik440 : OK.... fine.... I have told what I felt as a christian.... and you have expressed whatever you thought.... I'm sure you know that there is a lot of difference between 'Feeling' and 'Thinking' .... !

Never mind... uncomplicate life by enjoying what is around .... don't be opinionated on others judgements.... coz you'll never discover yourself !!

Cheers !!!

[sangeeth666]

I like the singing but i think it sounds more divine with the original instruments Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy used in the movie. Tabla and everything.

[MrRaww9]

kamal hai

[bhattacharyyasom]

Its funny that some people are "bekaar" enough to come to CS India links and post meedless hateful comments ...

get a life whoever u are ...

Music lover who gives borders a fuck ...

[ahsanfarooq55]

same bollywood music!....... nothing like cokestudio!!! but much better than other performances ....

[roverlibra]

Friends do we have paint every thing colors of religion. Music has no religion. it is just sense of feeling goes beyond the borders ...

[sudeepgaddam]

The Best reply you could give to vicious comment is keeping quiet..!

[sudeepgaddam]

awesome.....!!

[pramodvyas4391]

Lovely voice....great composer and singer....

Best singer of India...

[pavijit1993]

I dont kniow why people think abt religion when they listen to this song .... MUSIC is a religion in itself .... it knows no hinduism christianity or islam ..... It is better if learn to associate MUSIC with GOD, and not to any specific religion



[89wordlife]

well its not classical definition of an indian but yes is the classical definition of a gud human being...give respect to other religion and you will get the same! anyways well sung!

[vbadams1869]

why isn't there a LOVE option for this video?????

[vbadams1869]

THE MANS GOD!!!!!

[mujtabatariq18]

Shankar Jee Thanks for this respect for Islam. I wish that this song will be a starting of peace between these two countries.Thanks Again.

[ANNA3057]

hes done a great job with the song....but i stil see 10 people disliking it.but i really wonder if any of those 10 people have ever written a song or composed a tune or have mastered any musical instrument or even hummed somthing melodious??????

[reenaluxmikongkham]

can we just forget the narrow feelings of being an Indian or a pakistani and just enjoy the music. music knows no boundary

[Charlie12127]

Sankar has always been fantastic and he has rocked this time too.

[thepanjwani]

GOOD JOB,,,,,

[wilsonbruce143]

A Hindu Brahmin singing a beautiful song on Islam !

This is the classic definition of being a real Indian !

[amolmshanbhag]

@wilsonbruce143 I think the world does not understand what INDIA is all about. They compare us with other useless nations, to go further into what INDIA is, they have to understand what Hinduism is, unlike Islam or Christianity, Hinduism is unbiased. They need to understand that ONLY AND ONLY because of Hinduism other religions were able to survive in India and in 1947 the evils created the neighbor who will always remain a headache. Hope God does something about it

[J4archae]

@amolmshanbhag

which god? monkey or elephant

[amolmshanbhag]

@J4archae a monkey or elephant is better than a pedophile/child molester Mohammad haha

[J4archae]

@amolmshanbhag

Why did Ram's wife run away with Rawan ji Sri Lankan?? because Ram was gay.. hahahahahahahahahaahahahahahah­ahahahahahahahaha

[amolmshanbhag]

@J4archae haha as usual, moron muslim youth. SHE FUCKIN DID NOT RUN AWAY; SHE WAS ABDUCTED. hey piece of shit, count the number of terrorist your religion creates. don't even answer back to me with some bull shit stats. btw what is Sri Lankan? you can't even phrase your sentences correctly. I'm sure its your madrassa education showing up here

[J4archae]

@wilsonbruce143

What is so big about hindu Brahmin? They are as low life as rest of the indians

[saadmani]

poora zor laga dala.. phir bhi nahi hoowa jhingalala :)

.. Bad composing..

[Muid20]

jese Rohail Hayyat karta hee compose music

[Muid20]

shankar ne mehnat ki he per ager composer thori mehnat karle to acha sa music compose karle to sng or bhi acha lagne lagee

[utsavtripathi]

wow... really amazing

[vikicena]

amazing , Shankar Mahadevan rocks  ! \m/

[khalllllaaas]

Loving this song Shankar Je is Master Piece perfecto, I am Pakistani & I seriously Love Shankar Mahadevan Voice, Composition & Music more than anyone else, Truly HE IS A MAN, Love you Shankar Jee.

[anjumparviz]

Wow! magnificient! Shanker Mahadevan is super amazing!

Treat others the way you want to be treated............bottom line of all religions.

Off course power mongers of all hues and cries will never agree to this basic truth.

[gauravsaini56]

great song...

[pranab1234]

Stop fighting please. Music is a world language above any other. You need not be from any religion to understand it.

[khanmamoon]

Nice intro 

[acreyanoo]

My Name is Shaun Rebello. People like you make being alive such a mess. Everyone's just a person. Just like you and me. is that not good enough a reason to respect the other? Fuck you that is all your worth because that is all you want to do.

[bhriguaneja]

@acreyanoo no it is not man. You're parents will stop respecting you if you're just a person living in their house, on their couch for the rest of your life. As people, as humans we need to check each other to keep this place sustainable for longer. We need to check global warming, we need to check terrorism, in other words we need to check if their is something wrong with our society and its people. We all need to be responsible for this place. I hope you see that as well.

[acreyanoo]

Beautiful . Shut up and Listen

[MrLonelyjatt]

@bhriguaneja u are miss guided bro... and people u talking about who practice islam and killing people , they are not practicing the way it is.. some people brainwashing the teenagers.. and terrorists are not muslims,.. they do not have any religion... in pakistan its been 1000 ppl dead almost since feb 2011 till now .. in terrorists attacks.. would u say them muslims,hindus,christians etc?? u will name them terrorists not muslims, hindu, chrsitian or jew.....

[bhriguaneja]

@MrLonelyjatt I will most definitely define them from their beliefs. You can be politically correct by saying its not anything to do with religion but I don't believe in hiding from the truth. All religion gives anyone is a hope for a better time in heaven after they leave here. I have no patience for people who believe religion has anything good to offer. What part of your life is good because your a muslim. Everyone deep down sees you as a terrorist, even though you're not really one.

[bhriguaneja]

@MrLonelyjatt Also, the attacks in Pakistan or any part of the world are all religious based. Everyone to defend their faith will tell you the terrorist are not their religion. Truth is they actually are. You might not be like the terrorists and you might be the best person alive but that doesnt take away from the fact that these people come from the same religious beliefs. Basically all religions suck. God might exist, religion should not. I dont want to see ppl die in the name of Allah or Ram.

[khur4m123]

bohat ala ... shankar sir... maza agya... first song of MTV CS ... i like !!

[shimpyy]

Above all the show is all about fusion, fusion can go right and a bit messy at times. its like makin new music live at the studio and they air it at the same time. Artists like Wadali brothers would never have thought dat they will sing their shit on drum, bass players, guitars & shit. They are old old school artist and they loved it and so do we, at the end of the day, its my personal opinion

[shimpyy]

Some of the blokes here have No idea wtf they are talking about. If u don't think its upto the mark, its ur taste of music, I ma small scale producer and I hae an Idea whats shit does it take to produce this kindaa stuff, Bro this is live Jamm sessions, all theese people don't have time to reherse with the artists, the musicians r same all the time but they have new singers evry week, They have not worked with em , so wotever they do live is off the hook mate. Much respect to the producers.

[shakadar1]

nice very nice this is the first song i liked in CS mtv....hadi from pakistan..:)

[anuragarora29]

awesome!



[2849250]

rohail hayat has definitely done better than this.. no offense intended.. there is no such thing known as talent lack in pakistan or india.. the thing that seems to matter is the quality of production although some songs are really good but most of the songs fail to qualify as good.. this song is outstanding..



[TheZainsahab]

Shanker is great singer but this coke studio is not gud as it shd be ...... indian film music is great and pakistani pop music so there is no fight yar.... Hum log lartay ku rhetay hain..... i m pakistani,,,, hum aik dusray ko jantay b nahi phr b india and pakistan ko bura khetay hain.......hum aik dusray ki izzat karni chahiye

[TheZainsahab]

.... duniya ki taqatain humain larwa rahi hai humain mil k peace main rhena chahiye we r common persons of both nation baki abhi jo kuch horaha hai ye sub ISI, RAW mosad CIA type ki agencies hain common man ko tu apni family ki pari hai chahay wo indian hu ya pakistani ...

[bhriguaneja]

I dont get why Indian keep trying to be friends when all you get from Pakistan is hatred. Grow some balls. Fuck them losers. Concentrate on your lives and your music. Let them be judgmental if they have to. They call Indian culture too open. Well we at least are not intolerant enough to want to kill others if we see someone not living like we think they should. Pakistan sucks, not because of anything but too strong beliefs. They are not ok with a Jesus, Ram or any other god from their own.

[MrLonelyjatt]

@bhriguaneja who said we are not ok with jesus Ram and any other GOD??? we respect all religions.. stop accusing muslims .. !! ur media shows u shit ,,,, !! and u know what the things that u just said it shows that u need to get ur brain fixd,.,,, you are not intolerant??? wtf u did in 1983?? killing sikhs ?? going to there Golden temple??? comon man... i am not taking anyones side, just grow up kid !!

[bhriguaneja]

@MrLonelyjatt I dont think you know where I live. I live in the US and considering this is the most tolerant country in the world I get my views from personal experiences. I don't know about you but people from pakistan who truly practice Islam talk about killing and mass murders like its a joke, like it means nothing. About my brain, i dont think you need to worry. I am not strapping a bomb to myself or shooting at random public. I am an Athiest so I dont ever talk about crusades. I have

[bhriguaneja]

@MrLonelyjatt no reason to argue with your stupid ass no more. You guys don't realize there is something wrong with your country and keep pointing fingers at other. I have the balls to say I am from India and it sucks on most levels. You have huge insecurities that have you defending your country and beliefs.

[89wordlife]

@bhriguaneja

well a common man has nothing to do wat happens in india or pakistan everyone wants peace....its just the govt issues and man just luk at ur media pathetic i must say,i have never heard anything gud frm ur media regarding pakistan just spreads hatred,i knw u wont but atleast read some history abt islam before commenting...we believe jesus not as son of GOD but as His prophet..! we are taught to respect other religions but in response we expect the same..accept Islam as a reality!

[bhriguaneja]

@89wordlife Islam is the biggest BS on this planet. Every religion is nonsense. You nut jobs don't realize that it is not only the Indians who point out the problems with your country on tv and media in general. US blasts all Pakistani policies and how it runs in general. Firstly the very fact that you believe that something that you believe is better than anyone else is just sorry. You make it sound like you have copyright on the reality of life, frankly for me you are the farthest from truth.

[89wordlife]

@bhriguaneja

listen u brat if u want say something say but dun get out of ur pants..regardless ur pathetic views i'll just say dat ISLAM is currently the fastest spreading religion..despite the pathetic media propagation ppl from west are entering ISLAM...!regarding media tm to wh log ho agar media pay ajaye k tmharay 10 baap hain u'll start believing without even thinking! yes we put ISLAM abv every religion and dat what a christian, hindu etc think abt their religion so its obvious u fool..!

[bhriguaneja]

@89wordlife Everything is a propaganda, all against Islam and Pakistan. Don't you don't sound crazy to yourself? Islam is the fastest growing religion because the punishment for giving up Islam is death, also you make babies like animals do. Every muslim household has like 10 kids. Honestly arguing with someone like you is like arguing with a 5 year old. I am not replying to your comments anymore. This is an ego trip for you. Lets just cut the crap. You go on believing your nonsense.

[89wordlife]

@bhriguaneja

spreading means new ppl are embracing ISLAM u idiot...aneways do some research before commenting, correct ur facts before pointing...a muslim has no issues with an indian yes but surely with the zionists....ur a kid tm jaisay phlay bht aye believing there is no GOD and now they are in the circle3 of islam...yes cut the shit, the thing is ur just shouting and screaming..!

[bhriguaneja]

@89wordlife You don't know what spreading means. And if you meant embracing then people embrace homosexuality and other religionsl, they embrace a lot of shit. Who the fuck is talking about India. I am not an advocate of India. I was just trying to give you a piece of my brain. All you're doing, of course the only thing you're good at is tell me I am an idiot and somehow a brat. Do you even know what a zionist is. Stop listening to morons like Zaid Hamid. He's ruining you.

[89wordlife]

@bhriguaneja

see ur still shouting and screaming..!yes im gonna cal u an idiot cuz ur arguing wid me becuz u have incomplete knowlegde of wat ur trying to say!i have never argued any hindu or a christian cuz i dun know abt their religion....so u just cut ur shit and speaking against ISLAM, u dun believe in God gud 4 u but pointion on other religion just on media reports isnt gud..i dont listen zaid hamid...!jews always play against islam dats wat QURAN and islamic history tells me...

[bhriguaneja]

@89wordlife I have read Quran in bits and pieces. I am sure even you haven't don't your research either. And if you have you know women have to live in a cloth bag in Islam, while men can go around doing what they please. If your mothers and sisters don't wear a burqa then you should kill them since they are not muslims. Mohammed married a 6 year old and bedded her when she was 9. I know that might not baffle someone from your background but to a rational human being that is the most sick thing.

[89wordlife]

@bhriguaneja

well im not gonna comment to the second part of ur post..that insane how u depicted it! reading in bits and pieces will make u more confuse....regarding the veil thing, its an obligation in ISLAM but doesnt mean not obeying ALLAH is the direct matter of the person and ALLAH we cant punish or kill anyone...there are same orders in QURAN for men and women, same punishment and same rewards..!look i have no issues with wat u believe but have respect for other religions..!

[bhriguaneja]

@89wordlife I have no respect for any religion, and yours is not exception. I will have my 72 virgins right here. Sure I'll not have them naked all the time and hold an erection for all my life but I will deal with it.

I am not trying to insult or offend you in anyway. I am ridiculing a belief system. Its like people ridiculing corruption and child labor. You will hold onto your religion if you have to. I was only trying to show how absurd it is. And all other religions are as absurd.

[89wordlife]

@bhriguaneja

well its your view but still i have issues with ur last sentence..in my whole conversation i havnt said ur views are crap absurd blah blah....avoid it and if u think then keep it to urself!

[MegaUmmara]

@bhriguaneja Hazat Ayesha was 10 yrz when she was betrothed to Prophet(pbuh) and the marriage was 15 yrz old when the marriage was consumatted !! get ur facts rite !! dont rely on the rumors floating around first confirm frm authentic resources !!! :) :)

[bhriguaneja]

@MegaUmmara I would like to know your source. It is utterly extraordinary that someone who practice a religion with such conviction is not really sure whats in it. I am certain of my statement. I would like you to give me evidence to prove otherwise. And yes, none of those Islamic websites. I want a real source. People in religion manipulate the stories to make it more appealing to its followers. That is why you don't have the facts. Please read the Quran man. I really hope you do.

[MegaUmmara]

@bhriguaneja u ll find numerous refernces regarding this !! and several of them differ frm each other !!! would u plz mention ur source of info !!! and i read quran !! thank u very much !! and not just for sawab !! for guidance !! dont be cynical and look the historical facts !! Muhammed (pbuh) was a great leader !! and so was Ayesha (RA) . she turned to be a great protégé !!! stop viewing everything in sexual terms and try to broadan ur mind !!

[bhriguaneja]

@MegaUmmara Broadening my mind?! This actually coming from a guy who holds a belief system is the only possible answer to the world. I don't think you realize how ridiculous you sound.

I'll message you my sources.

[J4archae]

@bhriguaneja what happened to seeta in Sri linka???

[ashwinisawal]

No question Pakistani music is good. But Pakis can never be tolerant. How can they be ? They live their lives just on hate. They LOVE violence. They absolutely LOVE weapons. Now they are talking about Indian Music ? Today their foreign minister was very happy that the Paki team got very good ovation during Common Wealth Games. She did not know that their players were called bloody terrorist. Shame on you !!! Leave us and our music alone.

[manjeshgowda25]

fantastic

[guitaristofmylapore1]

My god. Indian. Pakistani. and the other two hundred plus countries. this is the best music i have ever heard...:) just goes to show that boundaries and distances matter nuts to music. :)

[REXXBAILEY]

INDIAN COKE STUDIO IS NOT AS GOOD AS PAKISTANS. FOR ONE SIMPLE REASON DAT THESE IDIOTS FOR REASONS BEST KNOWN TO THEM PICKED UP LESLIE LEWIS AS ITS MUSIC DIRECTOR.. INSTEAD OF SOMEONE LIKE LOUIS BANKS OR RANJIT BAROT. SIMPLE... I MEAN WAT THE HELL DIS THEY SEE SO MUCH IN LESLIE LEWISE'S MUSIC OVER SO MANY THOUSAND BETTER ONES DONT UNDERSTAND. FUCKING ILLITERATE FREAKS.. THEY WUD AVE DONE A BETTER SERVICE TO THE AUDIENCE HAD THEY JUS SHOWN THE PAKISTANI COKE STUDIO INSTEAD.

[patbusy1]

I generally refrain from making comments about Pakistani music...But these suggestions that Pakistan has more creative musicians than India is stupid...Pakistan has not more than four or five classical gharanas...India has at least thirty gharanas...The stature of Shankar Mahadevan as a Carnatic classical singer cannot be underestimated....Most of our uninformed Pakistani friends do not know Carnatic classical...otherwise they would have appreciated Shankar's exposition of Yaman at the end...

[aghaehsan]

@patbusy1 You have a very valid point. However, Pakistaniz have command over the language and the literature which adds spice to their songs and music. I would refer to that additional component as garnish.

[junaidkhan7777]

oye plz filmi music say bahar aa jao...,,phr try krna coke studio...pakistan and indai ka first season daikho phr b pakistani music bohat creative or aalaa hay...

call me I'm more creative thn ur musicians..lolx

[junaidkhan7777]

indians are funny...........



[saintdefaiz]

well i am a paki as u term us we are tolerant and creative just leave hate out for music is beyond hate for coke studio @ mtv is gathering up togather and i wish and expect grt music from it india has grt talent and singers just an honest opinion(and its my own) the compositions and the mix lacks effort and skill) somebody like ar rehman wud do wonders for it , other than respect ppl salam to all

[bhaskarmota]

and CSI pls pls call Indian oceans on the show

[bhaskarmota]

why can't these pakis be tolerant??.....Its just in incubation period now!!.....just give it some time....i m sure it will come out shining with its own unique creativity..

[bhattacharyyasom]

some idiot Pakis here need to cme out of their low life ... u bring a bad name to your great country ... 90% of Indian songs copied from Pakistan !!!!! Thats a fucking bad joke ... or maybe the guy is poor at maths LOL ... U have noidea of what music is or creativity is .. u only know to try and show others in bad light . i wont even discuss music with such dickheads coz this is not about music ...

[shoaib608]

the problem with this is that these SONGS need to be sung with heart.....and indian are too busy to produce commercial........so ti doesnt good at all.......

[frozenblood7]

Coke Studio originated from Brazil not Pakistan......!

[yoyo6687894]

come on......will u indians stop copying pakistan...... u guys suck......90 percent of ur songs are copied frm pakistan....( although the indian public is totally unaware of tht....)and now uv strted copying our programs as well... u indians cannot match pakistani musicians wat so ever.... the pakistan coke studio is quite creative.... and this doesnt show any creativity at alll.....sory fr tht

[erum]

It is ok but missing the soul. I dont think u guys should be singing bollywood songs, just my humble opinion

[Vishnu1957]

What a Re-interpretation of Sufi song Allah hi Reham sang by Shanker Mahadevan.

end of the song,the classic sargam taan sang by him remembering me the great legend singler Shri D.V.Palusker.

Can you convey my salllllaaaaaammmm to PANDIT shanker mahadevanji .

[djbeatsindia]

Shankar got saraswati maa in his voice...Superb, may god give a chance to see him live singing

[tusharprakash]

what?????? we need sufi text from the film industry now????? What happened to Khusrao and gr8 sufis of the subcontinent? Or we dont want to use bulleh shah because is from Pak? Or kabir because is taught in school? or guru nanak because we hear him every day in the gurudwara? This is one chance to bring the poetry, mystic texts and forgotten folk styles of the sub continent... guys donnt ruin it with bad taste.... I am sure coke wud have funded a bollywood film if they wanted this.

[panther817]

"A sufi composition by shankar ehsaan loy for """"MY NAME IS KHAN""" " ?!?!?!

SO ....  BOLYWOOD STUDIO finally decides.... guys, this aint working... lets get some filmy hit numbers... but they should be "SUFI" han?!?!?! BRAAAAAAVO mannn BRAAAAVO!!!!!
