Holaaaa guys! In today's episode of Pattukkaaran podcast we're going to take a trip down memory lane and talk about one of the most favorite hindi album - Rockstar. One of the most impressive things about Rockstar was how it seamlessly blended different genres of music, from rock to sufi to classical. The album showcased the versatility of both A.R. Rahman and Mohit Chauhan, who delivered each track with utmost sincerity and emotion. Rockstar's success wasn't just limited to its music, but also to the film that it was a part of. Directed by Imtiaz Ali, the film starred Ranbir Kapoor and Nargis Fakhri in the lead roles. The film's storyline, coupled with the brilliant music, made it an instant classic and a fan favorite. To this day, Rockstar remains a fan favorite. It is an album that has stood the test of time and continues to inspire and resonate with people across generations. If you haven't listened to it yet, do yourself a favor and give it a listen. You won't regret it. But 1st, listen to my Pod. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pattukkaaran/support
