shaheediyan Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 This is thread has been specifically created to highlight the impact that Bollywood has had on Gurus pavitar kirtan. Please, please post any kirtan you have heard or come across that you think is based on a Bollywood tune, lets make a nice collection here - a bit of fun, bit of reminisce, but with ultimate objective educating the sangat. No holds barred - Kirtan Legends, Sants, whatever - list them all! PS copy of Bhangra, Pop etc as well, anything modern based. To get us started: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSWnBBm-dUE Lol, I'm cheating - sorry, I'm using a bhajan rather than a Gur-shabd! But its too good a rip off to ignore! I love the Mirpouri Phem-ali line half-way through - talk about a personalised service! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drawrof Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Bro, I have a few deadlines right now and you've given me a second wind..... Before anyone gets offended or takes this as an attack on someone, I want everyone to know that this isn't a mockery at all. I am just drawing a parallel between a bollywood movie which is on the flip coin of what is being sung in the shabad. (good prem & nice voice paaji) (abstract being used to describe the material). I am itching to find some more 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silence Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 If we were all gurmukhs, i think we would all simply be lost in the words being sung, rather than HOW they were being sung..

shaheediyan Posted May 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Excellent start drawoF! I mean to say, good researching... "If we were all gurmukhs, i think we would all simply be lost in the words being sung, rather than HOW they were being sung.." I could just as easily say, if we were all Gurmukhs, we shouldn't be watching Bollywood films to find inspiration for our 'Akhand' Kirtan, our inspiration should come from existing original kirtan traditions like those of the sublime Bhai Avtar Singh. You are entitled to your interpretation of 'Gurmukh', but for some us, 'Gurmukh' means to face to, listen to and live in our Gurus hukum. If Gurus kirtan maryada isn't important to you, then you shouldn't waste time with specific clothing and iron utensils either. Anyway, please don't spoil this thread - its purpose is to expose exactly that which you are purposefully blind to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithar Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Here is another one ..... 1) Shabad: 2) Extra hot 7, song 1: Bulleh Shah di kaffi (http://music.pz10.com/album/7230/Extra%20Hot%2007-Various.html) <sorry this is only a sound clip ) I agree with you guys about the copying of the bollywood tunes. But this tune that Drawof has presented is a common punjabi musical tune of Punjabi folk music not specifically used only in that bullah shah song only. People in Pends sing such tunes during Prabhat pheris. But yeah, Kirtan should be sung in the Raag it was written in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteGrass Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Some rababi's have said that bandishes have been sung by different Guru's in different raags, from what they written as. Does this mean they were lying? Or does it allow some flexibility in the raag that the shabad is sung in? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
