Hey ravi,
First if all...what an absolutely amazing song composed by ARR
sir...Its certainly one of the masterpieces that he has done during recent
times. If i'm not mistaken the last piece played on the continuum sounds
similar to Raag Dwijavanti/Sahana in Carantic music. Can't be too sure though,
just an intelligent guess from someone who loves music...(I just love
ARR..!!!!)..This song would be just mind blowingly, beautifully, spiritually
enlightening while driving by yourself and there's a light drizzle on your
windscreen to just entrance you into a soulful bliss..!!!!!!!!!!......
