The right elements are coming together in Jodha Akbar for Rahman to strike pure gold. He is working with Gowarikar who clearly respects Rahman's scope in music and himsef has a very fine taste in music (Lagaan and Swades). Rahman loves to score classical music for films and since JA is a period film of the classical era, there will be no bounds for Rahman's fire to be unleashed. And finally, the film is a romantic film....Rahman always gives his best music for romantic stories.
The music of Jodha Akbar will probably be one of Rahman's most finest creations...an album of pure class, melody, depth, sound, ethnic brilliance. I predict it will surpass Zubeidaa's brilliance. If music pandits have not bowed to Rahman yet, they will after hearing Jodha Akbar's music. The music will be popular as well, given the strong melody and Rahman's penchance for catchy tunes. This will not be another Anu Malik's Umraon Jaan. I may be sounding a bit dramatic and far fetched, but this is how confident I am about the power of Jodha Akbar's music. Can you imagine...Rajasthani music.....classical......folk......man, I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!! Lajjo's music will be similarly brilliant.
