Aaja Milke

Happy New year to all of u! I hope this new year will bring all of u happier times! :-)

Like many, I almost always fast forward TV ads but one of those times I did not, I saw the preview of this movie called “Chamku”.. the name itself sounded funny but there was this one tune that kind of got me interested. I did a search and heard the whole song and I really loved the composition by Monty Sharma. Shreya as usual is magical! Her voice modulation is at its best in the beginning alaap. Any song she sings, she makes it sound so simple but when u try to record it’s a whole different story! :-D Shail too has done a great job with this..(I absolutely love his Saawariya title song! )
Here is our attempt of this beautiful duet.. Soumitra, thanks so much for lending ur lovely voice and for mixing this!
Thank you for listening.

Movie Name : Chamku (2008)
Original Singer : Shreya Ghosal & Shail
Music Director : Monty Sharma
Lyrics : Sameer
Sung By : Vidyu & Soumitra

Vidyu,
I want to be the first one to comment on this super performance of yours :) ...this is a song that sounds easy (such is Shreyas style) but is a very difficult song...long notes everywhere...murkis...expressions..
you sound just amazing..my personal fav's are "Palko Mein Din Dhale" and "Sochu Na Tu Mere"..mindblowing...history !!
Keep singing :)

I agree with Soumitra, it is indeed a tough song, both of you have sung exceedingly well:)
The humming in the beginning was very well done, Vidyu:)
Soumitra, u sound too good in the first antara:)

Brilliant singing by both of you. Great choice of song. Almost thought you had stopped blogging. Very happy to see you back.

Thode Badmash too is a flawless rendition. I have no words to tell you how very much I enjoyed listening to it. It could pass off as an original.

God bless you.

Best wishes,
Ananya Sharma

Hay Vidyu,
Never heard the song before until I heard it in your blog. Yes, then I heard the original also. Loved the song... melody ... everything is very attractive. Both of you did wonderfully as usual. I felt effects could have been slightly less though, to bring out the clarity of your voices. Enjoyed a lot.

Keep Singing...me listening,
Shantha

Thank you for the wonderful , beautiful, enchanting number !! Really enjoyed !! Great singing by both and even great mixing ...especially Vidyu' s part , overlapping , echo has come out so so well !!! and lingering !!!

Made me listen to the original and I felt Shreya's voice sounded pretty low compared to the music !

Soumitra said...

Thanx everyone for your kind comments on our effort :) Thanx Vidyu for singing the song with me. You were fantastic :)

Excellent Performance Vidyu. I have not heard the original. I think it has already been said many times. It seems like the male portion is much easier than the lady's. Soumitra's delivery was a good complement.

Suparna said...
