Actually Rawat, Khili Rey is my favourite
1. it's the only semi-classical song of the album.
2. i thoroughly enjoy those tabla-chorus entries
3. Reena Bhardwaj is back to Bollywood after a long time.

only but lately
IMHO, it would demean ARR's efforts if we say he can compose a song from

Interesting perspective.

It a well known fact that unlike other MDs, ARR's music requires multiple

melody. This also demands good headphones...

of noisy cluttered

give the best on headphones. Blue was superb on the headphones. VTV was superb

Coming to Ravan the layering over layering can be only captured on a headphone.
