Raghav Sachar: Future of Hindi Film Music
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,December 01 2006]
Raghav Sachar is a young dude. With a hell lot of musical attitude. His score in ÂKabul Express is an absolute revelation. And no, he is not your run-of-the-mill stuff. But at the same time, he is not diametrically Âhat ke so that the masses donÂt identify with. ÂKabul Fiza is the no. 1 number on my car stereo. And itÂs a pleasure when it blares from mobile mp 3 in a stuffed local train at peak hours. Raghav has sung the number besides composing it. And yes, he plays wind instruments like clarinet and flute with the prowess of a master.
The surprising aspect of his debut as a music composer is the manner in which he has made seasoned singers like Shubha Mudgal, Sunidhi Chauhan and KK sing the number ÂBanjarÂ. The moods are different each time. And the attitude is different too. The production values, music arrangements and the confidence while shelling out one quality composition after another is the hallmark of this twenty something singer-composer. Moreover, this album carries the feel of a private album and not the typical filmi album.
Raghav Sachar is the man to look out for. He is the future of Hindi film music. And the future is bright ..and melodious.
