GHAZAL’S RISING STAR, MOHAMMED VAKIL
The “Rising star” of Ghazal music, Mohammed Vakil has had his two singles released with Audio Curry. These singles will, without an element of doubt, add to the legacy of ghazal music. Mohammed Vakil is an emerging diamond in the world of India music, who is poised to carry the baton from the greats who gave ghazal music its charm. Hailing from Jaipur, from a family of classical Ghazal singers, Vakil has made rapid strides in the music industry. Fans of Ghazal music will get a taste for what the “New generation Ghazal music” has to offer.
The track titled “Khuda kare ke wo mera naseeb ho jaye, wo jitna door hai utna kareeb ho jaye”is a rather somber track, where in the singer, Vakil is expressing his loneliness and wishes to have his lover next to him. The raga “Sohni” that is employed is reminiscent of the one that was used in the film “Mughal E-Azam” which was sung by Ustad Bade Ghulam Khan Sahab. The lyrics were penned by Mohammed Saif Babar. The orchestral arrangements lend itself well to a Bollywood scene, making this track a little more versatile than an out and out ghazal track. Most importantly, Mohammed Vakil has infused this track with his inimitable style, emphasizing the fact that the ghazal tradition is alive and kicking. Add elements of Rajasthani Folk with a cross over Sufi style to this soulful track and you get a glimpse of the excellent production skills, not to mention that this track also showcases the immense talent that Mohammed Vakil possesses in rendering these ghazals, which will firmly catapult him onto the next level for all the Ghazal aficionados and musicians to appreciate.
The other track titled “Kisi nazneen se mulakat hogi, naya saal hoga nayi baat hogi”was inspired by the fond memories that Mohammed Vakil has for his maternal grandfather, Ustad Afzal Hussain. The mood of the track is a soft romantic one. With the New Year 2011 around the corner, this track builds up the anticipation to ring in the New Year. Along with the anticipation comes expectations of dreams, in particular the dream of meeting a coy girl which in Urdu translates to “Nazre-nazakat”. This dream carries with it the expectation of romance; a world filled with unbridled joy that comes with conversing with the one that “Special One”. Once again the composition comes to light with Vakil’s effervescence also coming to the fore. With the New Year around the corner, it will certainly delight fans of Mohammed Vakil and introduce him to a much wider audience.
The star power that Mohammed Vakil carries has not overwhelmed his humility who has credited this work to his two maternal uncles and renowned ghazal maestros, Ustad Ahmed Hussain and Ustad Mohammed Hussain. Mrs. Manju Narain has played a vital role in this process, whom Vakil has expressed his gratitude towards in producing these tracks. And last but not the least, Vakil has thanked the Audio Engineer, Aakash Jaitly who made these singles literally “breathe with life” with his impressive skills.
