Jashn e Bahara

Hindi does not come naturally to me. However that doesn't stop me from trying Hindi songs :-) Here is my attempt at my favorite song from Jodha Akbar. I heard this for the first time about a month back(thanks to my wife for introducing me to this one) and got totally obsessed with it. It took me a day to get the timing and diction right (to some degree). I really enjoyed performing this and hope the audience enjoys it as much.

As always, I am writing what I feel. From whatever I experience I have had till now dealing with many singers, usually I can gauge from a rendition what the singer's weaknesses and strengths are. And usually when I compose songs, these parameters are at the back of my mind. There are some who lack range, some pronunciation, some modulation, some clarity in notes and some who cannot hold a stable note.

but in your case, I was left wondering as to whether you are very good or deftly covering hiding your weaknesses ! I mean, I got completely confused. you have a good range, and then I would be just wondering if you are just going to break down. you have good cclarity and I would be wondering if you are going to slip ! And so on !!

Anyway I got to listen to more of your songs and I realize you are a good singer who probably knows his weaknesses which in my opinion is your strength !

Rock on!
