Omkara Music Album - Truly Indian Music

Rating : 4/5

Pros: Good Lyrics - Excellent Music

Cons: None


Firstly, I would like to thank Vishal Bhardwaj and Gulzar ji for giving such a Beautiful album . Gulzar ji has written songs, true to Indian taste. The lyrics are different from trendy songs we hear now a days. I will say, " In gaano main hamari mitti kii khusbu aati
hai ". The analogies drawn in the songs is remarkable. Vishal has trully justified by giving equally good music .

This album may not be a instant hit, but it will grow gradually and capture your mind . Believe me, Its worth buying.

Beedi and Namak are catchy songs, and I am sure they are gonna big hit. Beedi is already in promos. The lyrics used in this track has used common men’s words, especially used in villages and small towns.The song is very energetic and is definitely going to rock Bihar, UP, Delhi, MP, Jharkand, uttaranchal, punjab and other nothern states.

Namak reminds of last years big hit Kajarare. This track sung by Rekha bhardwaj is more like mujra song . Rekha has proved her versatility in this song.

Laakad, Naina and O saathi re are the treat for your ears. laakad is although slow, but you can’t escape it. Beautiful lyrics woven with excellent music.

Naina : This is a sufi kinda track sung by Rahat Fateh Ali khan. O’ saathi re sounds great in Shreya Ghoshal and Vishal Bhardwaj’s Voice. This track has classical approach.

Omkara - This title song is sung by sukhvinder singh. Again, it has got excellent lyrics . there are so many catchy line like - "Maathe par trishul ke jaise teen teen bal padte hai", "Chhake chhut gaye dushman ke, darti maange chutkara".

Let me ask Sukhvinde r Ji, "from where do you get so much of energy, while singing". This song will be the highlight of movie .

Jag Ja - is a melody in Suresh Wadekar’s voice. We rarely get such songs now a days.

The tragedy of Omkara - This instrumental will be the background score of the movie. It seems to be inspired from Govinda of Sarkar. It goes with the mood of the film.

Vishal has done a daring job of taking such untrendy songs in a commercial cinema. Kudos to you man. Overall, Vishal-Gulzar magic worked again.
