Oh yaaro, yeh India bula liya ! thats the theme song of the Delhi 2010 Commonwealth games. The noise that Suresh Kalmadi and Co built up was so much that i was very anxious to hear it. ‘It would even beat waka waka – said Kalmadi. Finally it was launched on Aug 28th again at a gala event because money is in no short supply for the CWG organizers – they repeatedly are proving this. The launch was no short of any political gimmicks with both Haryana & Delhi CM’s throwing their support behind the messed up organizers
My expectation were belied when the song was presented and by Rahman himself. It lacked any kind of genius music that this man is so capable of. Oh yaaro, sounded like too much of hindi and mix of some pop and loud guitars, in short a convoluted song… not amusing that so far the organizing has been nothing short of confusions and corruption. I would have imagined a theme song to give some patriotic feeling to the host country at the same time convey a message of oneness, pride, motivation & bonding to the athletes above all energy !!. It should’ve contained more of music atleast.. rather than those jarry tones. Given that the launch of this song was delayed and more changes requested by the organizing committee in its first review, rahman saab should’ve put in more work.
Oh yaaro…do you know, it cost 5 crores for this theme song. This is why we call our desh mahaan
