Over the years, whenever I have needed a song to motivate and drive me to work harder than ever before, I have looked to this song from the movie, “ Unnal Mudiyum Thambi.” The reasons are two fold. Unnal Mudiyum Thambi written by Pulamaipithan.Ĭomposed by Ilayaraja and sung by S.P.Balasubramaniam. We’re on to victory, We’re on to victory,Ĥ.
#Amitabh ekla chalo re movie#
The most popular rendition of the Hindi version comes from the movie “Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro” with music by Vanraj Bhatia. This song has its origin in the West with the iconic civil rights protest song by Pete Seeger, “ We shall overcome.” The original English version has great lyrics and the shorter Hindi version captures the gist of it. Original- “We shall overcome” by Pete Seeger.

Composed by Vanraj Bhatia and sung by various. Hum Honge Kamyaab written by Girija Kumar Mathur. The simplicity of the lyrics belies the power it wields over the listener. The soaring orchestral arrangement for the song is only matched by the soothing voice of Chitra and the raw emotion of A.R.Rahman’s own. Manirathnam and A.R.Rahman weave magic with some outstanding words by Gulzar. Here is a song from the movie “ Guru” based on the life of Indian business tycoon Dhirubhai Ambani. Composed by A.R.Rahman and sung by A.R.Rahman and Chitra Amitabh Bachchan sang a version for a recent movie, Kahaani where his voice does its magic. Shreya Ghoshal has a nice version here.Ģ. An equally remarkable rendition by Kishore Kumar can be heard here. This unique Youtube video captures her singing three versions of the song over a few decades. The one I like the most is the one by popular Rabindra Sangeet singer, Suchitra Mitra. There have been many versions of the song over the years. If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,Īnd along the blood-lined track travel alone. It was originally meant to be a patriotic song but the lyrics and timeless and universal. Over the past few weeks, I have been listening (all over again) to a bunch of versions of the classic “ Ekla Chalo” by Rabindranath Tagore. Tagore, the doyen of Bengali writing and one of the key freedom fighters with the pen, wrote this song in 1905. Ekla Chalo Re written by Rabindranath Tagore. I look forward to hearing songs that I missed from readers and fans of such music.ġ. These are a handful of songs that have and continue to inspire and motivate me when I need it the most. This is by no means a comprehensive collection. To that effect, I want to present a short playlist that I am calling the Mangalyaan Playlist. This is a testament to sheer hard work and innovation. As an Indian, it makes me proud and more so as an engineer. This is a huge step for India in terms of demonstrating its engineering chops on a shoe string budget. On the 24th of September 2014, India succesfully launched its Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), Mangalyaan into Mars orbit.
