Global singer and songwriter A R Rahman is getting huge criticism for his new song ‘Karar Oi Louho Kopat’. Originally, the track was written and composed by Kazi Nazrul Islam. Recently, Rahman came up with a new version of the song for the upcoming movie ‘Pippa’ starring Mrunal Thakur and Ishaan Khattar. A R Rahman has always been one of the most loved musicians of the country. Each time the artist comes up with a melodious soundtrack and captivates his listeners. But this time, he is getting some different responses from the others.
Previously, many artists have taken the initiative to create different variations of this patriotic song. but no one of them has ever changed the song, where Rahman has tried to add his charm to it. And that is what people are not liking at all. They have said, he has lost the essence of the original track. With this particular soundtrack, people have many emotions. It is one of the most popular patriotic songs in the country. Therefore, making changes in it has hurt the emotions of the netizens.
A user has said ‘What is this? Is this some kind of a joke #arrahman? This is not even a deconstruction of the popular Nazrulgeeti #Kararoilouhokopaat from the film #pippa. I would request everyone to raise our voices against this eccentricity (sic)’.
On the other hand, the proficient Indian music composer Debojyoti Mishra has said ‘We’re all familiar with A.R. Rahman as a genius composer and a thoughtful individual. Personally, he’s a good friend of mine. However, it’s distressing to discover that the iconic song of the legendary rebel poet and composer, Kazi Nazrul Islam, has been brutally murdered. Like many others, I’m deeply shocked by this tragedy. It’s a nightmarish scenario, and even as a standalone piece, the impact is truly’.
A YouTube user has said ‘A powerful song based on strong revolutionary messages to the younger generations got randomly transformed into a light hearted romantic type melody. The lyrics seemed to be haphazardly scattered into some random pop chord progression. There is not even a central structure of the melody. Why AR Rahman? Why butcher such a wonderful phenomenal song? Why deform works of the great Kazi Nazrul Islam?’ After that, another stated ‘Rahman Sir, you can’t play with our emotions by destroying the very soul of such an immortal creation’.
All these have created a huge mess on the internet. From this, it can be clearly said that netizens are quite pleased with this creation. another person has added more by saying ‘This Nazrul Geeti is a masterpiece itself and does not need any modifications from any musician in the world for it to sound better. Being a musician yourself you shouldn’t have disrespected an artist of this calibre’. Where another uttered ‘Mr. Rahman, this song has a different place in every Bengali’s heart. It is very disturbing to listen to my favorite musician destroying Kazi Nazrul’s song which till date gives goosebumps to every Bengali youth. Probably you have not listened to the original song.
