Poori Qaayaanat (Poorna), a mix of two musical styles

2017-03-22

What makes the music video of Poori Qaayaanat (film: Poorna) special is that they feature the very talented musicians and singers,featured in the video, like in a Coke Studio-ish setting. The song is a rehash of Salim Sulaiman's earlier Coke Studio production Cheene Re Mora Chain*, which was sung by Ustad Rashid Khan, and Salim Merchant. In this song, I like how a more contemporary rock voice of Vishal Dadlani and a soft classical voice of Raj Pandit has been used in this voice. In the Coke Studio version, pretty much the same musicians are featured, along with Warren Mendonsa, aka @Blackstratblues, who plays a slamming solo. Other musicians performing on Poori Qaayaanat are: Guitars - Nyzel D'lima, Sitar - Chirag Katti, Bass - Rushad Mistry, Keyboards - Salim Merchant, Jarvis Menezes, Drums - Darshan Doshi, Zen Drum - Sulaiman Merchant  

Thanks to MusicAloud review to point out the Coke Studio rendition. Had seen it but didn't connect right away.

On another personal note, here's another awesome song from Poorna, Kuchh Parbat Hilayein by Arijit Singh covered by me (guitar instruction), on my channel.
