On a high

My latest high (for the last one month) has been one more of ARR's genius creation - Jashn-E-Bahaara from Jodha Akbar (http://www.musicindiaonline.com/music/hindi_bollywood/s/movie_name.9539/). Much to the irritation of the Mr., I run this song in loop for the entire day :D!

Even with my limited hindi skills (I can write an entire month on my hindi language skills :p), I think it is a beautifully penned song. More than that, I love Javed Ali's voice - it has been the most refreshing voice that I have heard in recent times and his voice is the perfect choice for the mellifluous, soft nature of the song. The stringed instrumental flows and Rehman’s excellent orchestration makes it a mystical outstanding track. Kudos to ARR and happy listening!

My score: . 5/5

Raising Curtains!

My good friend, Mr. JS has always been asking me to start a blog for a long time and I haven't had the time to do it. I have some time on hand now and in addition, ever since the Mr. and I moved to US, I have come across so many episodes, a lot of funny items, so much difference in cultures and the blog seems to be the perfect place to share all this.

So, ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for my new blog, my scribble pad!
