Raj Kapoor - The Great Indian Showman

Whenever someone thinks about famous Indian showman, the first name strikes into his mind is Raj Kapoor. As a great producer, director and actor he produced a number of outstanding Indian movies which proved milestones for Indian film industry.

Ranbir Raj Kapoor (generally known as Raj Kapoor) was a great director, actor and showman. In 1935 when his age was eleven years only, he started playing roles in films. He started work as helper in "Bombay Talkies". Thereafter he moved on to assist Kidar Sharma as clapper boy. Noticing his determination, Sharma gave him a chance to play the role of hero in his film 'Neel Kamal' in 1947 opposite Madhubala. He established his own studio, R.K. Films, in 1948. Afterward he started directing films. He was the youngest film director of his age. As a director his first film was 'Aag' (1948) with a great success. In 1949 Andaaz ) (film by Mehboob Khan) and 'Barsat' (his own film) made Raj Kapoor a top star.

Barsaat was the first film of music directors Shankar - Jaikishen, lyricists Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri and the actress Nimmi. The music of the film was the big hit of the year and is still remembered. Lata Mangeshkar became top playback singer from this film. There is no doubt that Raj Kapoor had a great musical sense and feel for rhythm. He presented the highest quality of music to the audience.

Raj Kapoor was the film industry's pioneer. He made all the efforts to make movies for 'common man'. His films appealed to every section of society. He best utilized the Light & Shade at that age of Black & White cinema. He got appreciations from film fans as well as film critics also. People used to say him "Charlie Chaplin of Indian cinema".

Now
The legendary guru Bhagavan Das is known as the Wildman of Kirtan, which is an ecstatic brand of call-and-response chanting. The holy man has published three books, but Now is his first proper album of chants set to music. With Beastie Boy Mike D producing, arranging, and cowriting this album, never has chanting sounded so hip. Das's vocal mantras in ancient Sanskrit--and occasionally English--are well complimented by highly textured drum 'n' bass programming. D has also brought in live musicians, on modern and ancient instruments, to make the ever-shifting integration of ancient and modern sounds a smooth and hypnotic one. If the album's opening call to prayer isn't an obvious enough clue, this is religious music, and one can hear and feel the ecstasy in Das's voice as he chants and riffs. Interestingly, Das and D reference gospel on "Shiva Gospel" and the blues on "Shiva Shambho" with equally interesting results. This album should surprise many if they take the time to check it out. --Tad Hendrickson
