Are you in love? Were you? Would you want to be?The track ‘Tu Muskura from’ Yuvraaj asks for the same.
This amazing ballad (if i can call it) is about the girl asking for everything for a boy as long as he remains happy. Smiling. Unconditionally. As long as he gives the warmth of the sunlight to her, as long as she seeks. The solo cello at the beginning is worth dying for and the later rhythm is worth preserving. Here the music talks to you.
I found this to be an outstanding track to mix.
I wanted to treat it with utmost respect.
This track is so well sung and mixed by Rahman that it was suicidal for me to even attempt a mix, unless I get a brainwave. Which I did.
This track as I am told is composed in Raag Purvi is a song praying for love which has no boundaries of person or character.
I present to you a very special mix. I have digitially removed the music and retained only the vocals to give the fresh feel. To this I have added new drums and some guitar to give it a new tough. Ofcourse not better than the original!
This feels like a song which is totally recomposed to suit the western ballad style.
Try this and you will feel young. Let me know.

yup! this is as romantic as it can get …phenomenal mix of an awesome track…
This is one of my fav tracks! and you did total justice to it..try 'tu hi to meri dost hain too!
This mix if yours is one of the best i have heard from your stable or even others. Its very simple and equally captivating. One must listen to the original to know how much you have changed the music. What a creation. if rahman is best in composition, you are best in mixing ar rahman's tracks. Only you are giving the right amount of respect his great music.
Oh man, this is fantastic!!!!!, you recomposed the track dude and yet kept the soul of the song, you are genious man. total genious
oh god.This is fabulousness . you totally gave a new meaning to this song and it is so beautiful or shall i say as beautiful as the real thing composed by the maestro ar rahman. It is so pleasant to hear and yet to new!!
You have killed the song. Sorry I do love most of your mixes. But not this. You could have just left atleast the vocals without adding anything.
Nice attempt. The starting was good with just the vocals and the ambience of pads. The beat somewhat didn't suit. The interlude music also is not of the same feel as the song. I am listening to your other mixes now. I liked the Shivaji-JAM mix.
BTW, how did you extract just the vocals? I am interested to know about that.
