Industry happy with Zubeen hit

UMANAND JAISWAL

Guwahati, May 10: The music industry in Assam has hit the perfect note with a chartbuster from the latest Bollywood flick Gangster, A Love Story.
Creating waves of euphoria across the state is the fast and catchy number, Ya Ali, sung by the state's very own Zubeen Garg. The singer-composer actually sings the number on screen.
How huge is the hit and what it means to those in the music trade can be gauged by what Manik Lahoty of Sangam Music — a leading dealer of Saregama India Limited that released the film's music countrywide last month — has to say.
"This hit has come at the right time as the music trade here was going through a bad phase. It has given us reasons to smile during these piracy and election-affected times."
Trade pundits here said Ya Ali, which is lyricist Sayeed Quadri's ode to love and friendship, is also Garg's best Bollywood number till date.
But this is mainly because the singer concentrates more in his home state where he is in a league of his own.
"All the songs in the film are catchy, but the one by Zubeen is clearly its USP. It is a huge hit. Even in the theatres here his fans went berserk when the song was played and this is rare. Ya Ali has topped the charts for the past three weeks," said Manoj Saini of Maruti Music.
Big and small music outlets across the state are definitely singing the song all the way to the bank with more than 35,000 cassettes and 3,000 CDs of the Gangster track already off the shelves.
Traders, however, feel that the success could have been sweeter, but for piracy. "Had it not been for piracy, we would have sold over a lakh audio units. The song has not only helped us smile, but also established Garg in Bollywood," added Lahoty.
Suvojit Roy, the regional marketing manager of Saregama India Limited, could not agree more. At the same time, he hoped that this "phenomenal hit" would help boost the sales of Garg's maiden score as a music director in the Bollywood movie Strings. The film's track is slated to be released soon.
Even Zubeen has been bowled over by the response to Ya Ali. Though he could not be contacted, he had recently said in a TV interview that he was confident about the song doing well, but not in the manner it has across the country.
Music director Pritam had revealed in the same interview that Zubeen was so bowled over by the tune of Ya Ali that he had wanted to sing the song himself.

I just love the song and the movie and more then all this I just LOVED Shiney Ahuja in the movie.

This movie is worth watching. It gets u thinking abt the choices ppl make and what makes them come up with a decision. GREAT MOVIE!!

Best of luck to Shiney!!

Yaar,

Instead of having so many parallel threads on Zubeen, why not have a single consolidated thread where all information on him is available. There is another one I posted in justa while back ,Ithink named Zubeen Garg..why not post everything there?? It is too confusing.

But same thoughts as Adi. Why not post all these articles here in the thread below. We can then get them all at one place.😊

Zubeen Garg
