On a lighter note,regarding ARR transcending the language barrier, another reason for this is that he placed so much importance on the background music and instrument use that the lyrics of the song cld often not be understood by anyone(even a person who knew the language😉).......so obviously his songs wld transcend the language barrier.....jab kisi ko bhi words samajh nahin aa rahe hain to kya problem hai?sab barabar hain😆😆😆.........In a positive light,it was not important to understand the lyrics to enjoy his song.......so in a very positive light(😉),it meant he cld bring out the mood of the song thru the music alone(which is very good)🙂

.......I think ARR was as gud in composing songs for period movies as any body of his generation,probably better thah most...ID was another person who did very well with period movies......Anu malik(with asoka) was a disaster 😆😆......IR,RDB etc were oc excellent. R.D.B has scored for some period movies....the best among them being(in my opinion) Amar prem..classic songs each one 👏🏻.But .Ijaazat was not a period movie,nor was Sadma🙂Hridaynath Mangeshkar isa class apart and cannot even be spoekn abt in the same breath as most of the above MDs...his songs of lekin and many others(though not commercially popular) are real gems......that is asli music 😀

Just my 2 cents coz I too feel that in the recent few years ARR's music quality has gone down. I get the feeling that since he has become a big name in the west and is doing Bombay dreams and other musicals, his interest levels in Bollywood are really down.
ARR the genius which we saw in his earlier days gave phenomenal music in Roja, Bombay, Dil Se, Sapnay, Hum Se hai Muqabla, rangeela, Muthu, etc etc.YOu pick-up any song from these movies and the music was great. Then from 2000 his levels have dropped with an occasional glimpse of the past and a one off great score like RDB.He gave music in a SRK movie called - One two Ka Four, and that was atrocious music as per his standards. His music in Mangal Pandey was a big let down after the super score in Lagaan.Even his music in Guru i felt was not good and was last years most hyped score. Baring out a brilliant Barso re and a decent Bin tere Kya jeena all the other songs were not good - Jodiyan ek nahi do was a nightmare and even Maiyya Maiyya was not a good composition although with Mallika and promotion, the song did well.These days his albums have just 1 or 2 good songs and the rest are Bekar like in Jodha Akbar, the Jashne Bahara number & Azeemo Shaan are great, Khwaja is okay, rest are bad. In his earlier films all songs used to be gems.Since 2000 he has given sporadic glimpses of the past like in Saathiya, Lagaan & RDB but in between them have been albums which laced with just a couple of good compositions and some average stuff.Not what we expect from the great man.He needs to get back his focus and also decide if his interests lie Hollywood or Bollywood. ARR is like Roger Federer, in the earlier days both were way ahead and untouchable in terms of talent but off late both have maybe lost the hunger or focus and the chinks are starting to show but still their level is far better than the average jack. However as an audience, having seen their earlier brilliance, we dont want to settle for anything less than that.
