For You My Love/O Bandeya: This soul-stirring song from the Gurinder Chadha-directorial 'Blinded By The Light' is sure to remind you of your first love. The western arrangement blends seamlessly with the Punjabi lyrics, as singer Hriday Gattani lends his tender voice to this number.
Sunn Bhavara: This classical piece sung by Shashaa Tirupati is perhaps the most appropriate aural experience that could have complemented the signature visual treatment in a Mani Ratnam film.
Cholappenne: In what is called his 'grand comeback to Malayalam cinema', ARR lends not just music but also his vocals along with Vijay Yesudas. With nadaswaram as a primary instrument in the arrangement, this aptly fits into the story that is set against the backdrop of a wedding.
Cry Cry: This was sung by Rashid Ali during an era when he had already become the youth-favourite, having lent his vocals to yet another ARR film soundtrack of 'Jaane Tu...Yaa Jaane Na'. This feel-good song can fill you up with nostalgia in no time.
Kahaan Hoon Main: Perhaps the most underrated track of yet another underrated film, 'Highway', this song transcends you to the serene hills of Himachal. If the word 'saudade' was to have a musical expression, this would be it!
Vaan Varuvan: The track which won Shashaa Tirupati a National Award, is yet another masterpiece born out of an ARR-Mani Ratnam collaboration, 'Kaatru Veliyidai'. This, again, is a song which can make you feel the chilly breeze of the mountains everytime you listen to it, no matter where you are.
