Background

edit

Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela is Bhansali's second stint as a composer after Guzaarish (2010).[1] He composed 10 tracks, with only seven were featured in the film. Each track has a certain visual in Bhansali's mind and had ensured that the songs live up to the visuals, that spent him nearly two years to develop the sound he intended.[2] Most of the music had been composed and produced before shooting the film, where he could hum the songs after he got the idea for the film and compose it prior to the filming.[2] His influences of the film's music were mostly derived from the Gujarati folk music he listened in his childhood with his family members; he travelled to the interiors of Gujarat to get the authentic folk sounds. He was further influenced by the Hindustani classical and Marathi folk music, as well as the music from the vintage Hindi cinema.[1][2]

Siddharth–Garima was introduced to Bhansali by the Bhansali Productions' CEO, Sandeep Singh, who approved his involvement after Bhansali listened to the lyrics and started working on the songs. Aditya Narayan, who assisted Bhansali, had performed two songs after the latter was impressed by his work.[3] The other songs were performed by Shreya Ghoshal, Arijit Singh, Aditi Paul, Shail Hada, Shadaab Faridi, Altamash Faridi, Osman Mir, Bhoomi Trivedi, Arvind Vegda amongst several others.[2] Bhansali described the compositions as challenging as he relentlessly worked on curating the film's music and the team had to retrieve the master audio tapes to be sent to the production. He applauded Singh and Padukone for their efforts they gave for the film's music.[2]

Bhansali adapted and arranged the Gujarati folk song "Mor Bani Thanghat Kare" for the film; however, he credited the song to lyricist and translator Jhaverchand Meghani and composer Hemu Gadhavi.[4]

Release

edit

On 23 September 2013, prior to the album's release, the makers released the music video for the first song "Tattad Tattad", an introductory number for Singh.[5][6] The video for the second song "Nagada Sang Dhol", described as the garba number, featuring Padukone was released on 1 October 2013.[7][8] The film's music launch was initially scheduled to be held on 29 September 2013 but was delayed due to Singh's health issues and eventually cancelled.[9][10] The album was released in digital platforms on 4 October.[11]

Reception

Critical reception

edit

In his review for Rediff.com, Joginder Tuteja assigned three-and-a-half out of five, summarizing "With a perfect mix of folk and fusion songs, Ram-Leela's music stands out from the rest and is a sure shot winner".[12] Dhiren Trivedi of Bollywood Life rated four out of five, stating "although Ram-Leela seems to be set in a very situational mould, Sanjay Leela Bhansali manages to deliver the goods [...] SLB's soulful music in varied genres and styles dares to be creatively different and succeeds with panache. Undoubtedly, Ram-Leela will have big takers and is likely to grow manifold in popularity in the days to come."[13] Calling it as a "feast for music lovers", Yashika Mathur of Indo-Asian News Service summarized that "[Bhansali] adds grandeur to the album with his compositions but at the same time gives enough space to his singers to shine. Barring a few, all the songs are worth listening to."[14]

Vipin Nair of Music Aloud assigned 7.5 (out of 10) and wrote "A soundtrack that is quite comparable to Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s last, Guzaarish, in its mix. This hangover factor is concerning though."[15] Sankhayan Ghosh of The Indian Express assigned three-and-a-half out of five and wrote "Sanjay Leela Bhansali continues to embrace the traditional Hindi film music."[16] All the songs may not be instant chartbusting material or GenY party fodder, but there is solid substance here—and style. The lack of recall value in a couple of tracks—even if they all sound lovely when we are listening to them—prevents a higher rating."[17] Karthik Srinivasan of Milliblog wrote "From Saawariya and Guzaarish, this is some, limited progress for Sanjay as a composer."[18] Anand Holla of Bangalore Mirror wrote "Bhansali spans across hues and moods to give Ram-Leela his all and some more."[19]
