Because every person has highs and lows in his life. My father gave me opportunities and facilities. In response, Adnan said: "My parents and my wife have played a very important role in this whole journey. I was quite emotional."Īdnan has the experience of playing more than 30 instruments. Recalling the moment during which Sami reached Rashtrapati Bhavan, he said: "I was sitting at Rashtrapati Bhavan and was waiting for the award ceremony to start. "While receiving the honour, I felt as if, the Government of India and the people of the country told me that, it is for your work on our behalf, that is why it is very valuable to me." "Though there were difficulties, I still kept on moving forward by raising my spirits," he added. I have got this honour for the hard work, blood and sweat that I have shed over the years." Gather around simpletons, the cowboy is telling a tale.".behind this, there is the love of the countrymen for me. Kusnur: There is an interesting story related to Kailasa. The other good album that was released after this was Kailasa by Kailash Kher. Kusnur: According to me this album was the last of the good ones in that phase of Indi Pop.
ADNAN SAMI KABHI TO NAZAR MILAO TV
Me: I remember it as I had seen him play the unplugged version of Barsaat on some music TV channel when they actually broadcasted music. Kusnur: I think he did the unplugged version of Barsaat later. Me: Also a couple of unplugged versions, Kabhi Toh Nazar Milao and Barsaat. The album had a good mix of duets, wedding songs, ballads, and peppy songs. Kusnur: It is probably the only weak song on the album. There is one more song Dholki aimed at the wedding parties. Kusnur: Yes, they had used ‘morsing’ in this song.
Me: Mehndi Masala was aimed at wedding parties. Some songs work on this factor, like Koi Kahe Kehta Rahe from Dil Chahta Hai. People identified with the lyrics as everyone aspires to live a good life. Kusnur: It worked as it was an aspirational song. Me: The other release, Lift Kara De, also had a good video with leading Bollywood star viz., Govinda. But due to the video the title tracked was the biggest hit. This apart, all these songs were wonderful compositions. If you listen to his Bengali songs, he sounds completely different.
sang in a husky voice only when singing in Hindi. Kusnur: He has that husky voice to carry it off like R.D. This is evident in the ballads on this album like Bheega Mausam, Barsaat, Pyaar Hai and there is one more, Pyaar… Kusnur: It has a mix of ballads and fast songs. Me: Coming back to the album, this one is a very well balanced one. Kusnur: Ironically his birthday is on 15th August. Me: Pakistan origin man who lived all his life in London and Canada and is now an Indian! He played the electric piano and had done a classical-fusion album with Ustad Zakir Hussain in London. Kusnur: Yes it was and then they started highlighting Adnan Sami as the fastest pianist in the world, I don’t know what that term means. Kusner: It was a hit largely due to Asha but of course people recognised Adnan Sami’s voice too. Me: The first single was the title song which was a huge hit. In India, Adnan Sami was relatively unknown so the marketing focus initially was on Asha and then it shifted on him. So this album is more of a compilation of these two. Some other songs were from his earlier album called Badalte Rishte in which Asha Bhosle had sung four songs. A couple of songs in this album were also used in the movie. Kusnur: He had worked with Asha Bhosle earlier for a Pakistani film called Sargam. Me: All the songs on this album were composed by Adnan Sami. Note: Language may be altered to suit the platform’s requirements. The album became an instant success and reportedly sold 4 million copies.Īfter a couple of failed attempts, I finally got fellow cowboy and musipedia Narendra Kusnur on the call to discuss this album for this week’s Album Talk. One of the last hit albums from that era is Adnan Sami’s Kabhi To Nazar Milao.Īdnan collaborated with the legendary Asha Bhosle on a collection of love songs on this album for which he composed the music too.
The Indi Pop era had a glorious run in the 1990s which unfortunately ended at the turn of the century.
