Faridoon Shahryar, IndiaGlitz [Saturday, December 02, 2006] A R Rahman has done it again. His superlative brilliance in the soundtrack of `Guru' is a revelation for the music lovers. Be it `Barso Re' where Aishwarya is dancing like a dream under the canopy of blue sky, `Ae Hairathe Aashiqui' or `Tere Bina' Rahman gems are a collector's delight. But the song that leaves you speechless has to be `Jaage Hain'. For it's not merely a song but a state of mind. A stream of sub-consciousness that flows unabated invoking the spiritual side of your personality that stays dormant. Chitra starts off the proceedings in a slow sedate manner as her vocals unleash the magic with little or no accompaniment in the background. AR joins her in the whispering mode pleading for some sleep for he has remained awake for most part of the night anyways. And then he shifts gears magnificently and touches the highest contours of magnificence. There are layers of meanings in this song. It's about human life where happiness is a brief episode in the general drama of pain. `Jaage Hain' is one song that catapults Rahman to the level of greatest maestros or artistes who delivered much more than mere entertainment through their art. Rahman magic flows like an impassioned river determined to embrace the sea of timelessness.
