One heard Vande Mataram and one surmised that AR Rahman had no more horizons to conquer, but when one hears the soundtrack of Bose, The Fogotten Hero, one surmises that the sky is indeed the limit for the redoubtable composer.

Rahman sir does it one more time. And there�s Javed Akhtar�s seamless poetry.

When Sonu Nigam croons Desh ki mitti, he oozes pathos, whipping up a surge of emotion for this blessed land, India.

Sapna Mukherjee has never sounded so luminous as she does in the silken lullaby Ghoomparani.

Rahman coalesces western influences, the violins and the tablas to create an operatic symphony of exquisite melodies.
He affectionately trawls the riffs of Baul and the crannies of Kolkata to capture the rebel-rousing spirit in his version of Ekla chalo.

The Swades (not the film) influence vends its way into Rahman sung Azadi and you know this is one helluva crackling song. Bose is the year�s most definitive album so far, a paean to patriotism.

Bose, The Forgotten Hero (Times Music), music: A R Rahman,

Cassette Rs 55, available at Planet M
