Indus, i wrote in my previous post about loving punjabi Heer songs...the song you've posted above, from Heer Ranjha, is one of them... they are all called "Heer". And all Heers are set in this tune, the words more often than not, heart wrenching, soulful, painful, like the one above...sounds most amazing in male voices...Shaukat Ali from Pak...and Gurdas Mann in India are fantastic Heer singers!
And i don't know whether you've seen this particular film the song is from - RajKumar as Ranjha and Priya Rajvansh as Heer...it's very unique...the entire film is spoken in verses!
And your last few lines above are beautiful...IPK, through it's characters and expression, acquired a life of it's own...beyond it's makers and way beyond what a tv show or story is destined for... It reached out and entered all of us, i'm squished to pulp i'll tell you that, and very happily too.
IJ and Indi 😊
Indi that red one underlined is the voice of this message through this show , this small skit was just a promo.Thnx for the video ,yes I saw this and many more.Di ko chuna issko kehte hai...
Not only Heer, saasi punu , Laila Majnoon...are also in the same line but the beauty of Heer is ,it's connected to eternal crossed barrier which I explained in my previous post.The singers without much music with their sound has indeed created such a soulful melody that you just can't stop listening it and the more you hear , the more it becomes your thirst .
IJ , not only Shaukat, and my fav Gurdas Man, there is another name Iqbal Bahu.I just love his voice in Heer...There is another person , may be you know, Amrita Pritam, she born in Pakistan but after Partition moved to New Delhi , she wrote so much about Heer and especially Waris Shah.worth reading.Her poem"Ajj Akhan Waris Shah Nun.."[today I wish I could ask Waris SHah] is something...cool cool stuff , just like my fav Rabindranauth ,all these are my fav to read whenever time permits.
Besides This Baba Fareed, Suchel Sarmast,Shiv Kumar Batalvi,and Bulleh Shah is also in the same line as I told you I am into this a lot.
You are so so right, IPK hit that target as I mentioned before , why he didn't need any explanation and she didn't because that materialistic barrier was broken in between em where they could feel , see, and talk from miles away without any boundary and that was the reason to show , otherwise this was not Sci fi show...that was the message in a new era to convey which most of the ppl just felt but couldn't grasp it.You need to see from your inner eye.
Thnx ladies for such a delving discussion.After a long time I really enjoyed this.Sorry If i made you bored...
