The Biggest Devotional Hits of Anuradha Paudwal in one album
Strumm Entertainment presents a brand new album by Anuradha Paudwal recreating many of the most popular works of devotional music. Anuradha Paudwal is arguably India’s most popular devotional singer. Her vast collection of mantras, bhajans, shlokas and aartis have truly made her a household name. This album, titled ‘Greatest Mantras, Shlokas & Aartis’, is a brand new recording of Anuradha Paudwal classics.
One of the highlights of the album is that for the first time, Sangeet Martand PANDIT JASRAJ and Anuradha Paudwal have sung a duet – the Krishna Mahamantra ‘Hare Krishna Hare Krishna’ which is a part of this album.
Another highlight of this album is that for the first time we have a morning Gayatri and an evening Gayatri in Anuradha Paudwal’s voice. Traditionally the ideal time of the day for Gayatri chanting is sunrise and sunset and these recordings use a morning raga and an evening raga to create the two variants.
The album contains many more tracks that Anuradha Paudwal has been known for – the Mahamrityunjay Mantra, Om Namah Shivay, Narayan dhun and Devi Aartis amongst other popular songs. Modern audio technology has significantly improved the sound of the classic devotional songs, thereby offering a clear and fresh avatar of these all-time favourites. These are brand new 2013 recordings – they have a polished, contemporary sound and are distinctly different from her older recordings. While the tunes of the classic aartis and a few others have been retained, music director Kedar Pandit creates a new soundscape for many others like the classic Gayatri Mantra, Mahamrityunjay Mantra and Krishna Mahamantra among others.
‘Greatest Mantras, Shlokas & Aartis’ is truly a complete devotion package, a must-have for you and your family.
2 CD pack. MRP: Rs. 299/-

Merck India Unveils ‘Consumer and Lifestyle Inspirations 2014-15’
· Reveals upcoming colour trends for the Printing, Plastics and Coatings industries
Mumbai, October 07, 2013 – Colour is an element as important as design; however colour trends, though reflecting the spirit of times, could change frequently. For example, silver gaining popularity worldwide, thanks to the wave of high tech products.
One of the questions that perennially plague most manufacturers and product developers is determining the defining colour in the coming year. From a developer’s perspective, ‘colour sells; but the right colour sells better’ and thus they are in a constant search for the upcoming colour and trend preferences.
Performance Materials India, a division of Merck, is a leader in effect pigments. Every year it brings together experts and undertakes extensive research to predict colours that consumers will prefer in the coming years. It today unveiled the ‘Consumer and Lifestyle Inspirations 2014-15’, a colour forecast for the printing, plastics and coatings industries in India.
Some of the trends that consumer and lifestyle inspirations highlighted are:
· Warm effect colors like matte oranges, reds and deep chocolate browns would gain prominence.
· They would be complemented by bold colours like electric / cobalt blues, purples and pinks.
· For consumer electronic appliances, silver would play a lesser role as consumers gravitate towards colours with higher chroma, effect and emotion. Individual expression takes precedence.
· Black is no longer simply monochromatic; it gets reinvented and takes on a sparkly hue.
Commenting on occasion of the unveiling, Filip Roscam, Creative Design Manager, Merck KGaA, said, “The purpose of the report is to introduce the latest global colour trends and apply them to local products. This offers customers an opportunity to predict future trends and create demand for their products. Colours help consumer express their identity and individuality; thereby equipping manufacturers to satisy their customers’ needs.”
Dr. Aniruddha Paul, Head, Regional Marketing Asia (Decorative) said, “Being a global leader in the pearlescent pigment market, Merck’s Performance Materials Division focuses on creating new demand by actively developing products and predicting colour trends. We predict trends each year for various industries such as plastics, printings and coatings, and are confident that the Indian market will benefit immensely from it.”

“LISTENERS ARE LIKING ALL THE SONGS” – ASLAM KEYI
Animals, birds and human beings, everyone loves music. And music is a very important part of our Indian Cinema and most hits are because of music. So, many musicians are coming and going; but the talented person always leaves his mark. India’s first war comedy film WAR CHHOD NA YAAR, is releasing on 11th October 2013 and there is a big buzz in the trade about the film and its music. The music is scored by debutant music director Aslam Keyi. He told about his musical journey. Excerpts.
Have you been fond of music since your childhood?
I was born in Telicherry, Kerala in the royal Muslim family of Keyi. Before my birth my father died. My grandmother brought me up and she was my first music teacher. But music has no place in a Muslim family. So, I got little support from my family. When I went to college, only then I could start my music lessons with my sister Zajala and Philip sir. Later I learnt Hindustani classical from Ustaad Javed Usmani of Bhopal. Also I schooled under O.P. Nayyarji. I visited Dubai, London and from everywhere there was something that I learned. Since my childhood I was fond of music. Now it is my profession and still I am learning.
What made you to leave home?
In my school days, I made a musical rock band named Slick-N-Toxic with my friends and we were appreciated. And very soon my friend Zubair started a second classical band AZ-1000. They become popular. Our desire was to cut a music album and we made a music album titled SYMPHONY IN A MAJOR and for this I collected funds through my band. For marketing purpose first time I came to Mumbai and I stayed in my uncle’s house in Chembur. My uncle was a music lover. He had many friends in the music circles. I met O.P. Nayyar sab through my uncle’s friend Talat Mahmood. I was already a mad fan of O.P. Nayyar sab and I visited him very often. The album did not sell but on hearing the music, O.P. Nayyar sab made me his son and he blessed me. This was a big opportunity for me. I was bolstered enough and I decided to make my career in music only. I went to Dubai, settled in a studio called Global Music Centre and formed the Dubai Station musical band. I went to London to learn recording engineering. I lived there for one and a half years and I also formed Band Events with Tiston. One day O.P. Nayyar sab said, ‘If you want to do something in Bollywood, you should be staying here.’ And then I have started to work here permanently.
Did it take you a long time to get here?
I took 6-7 years to reach here. First I joined Pritamji and Ismail Darbarji. And then I joined Sanjay Chaudharyji. Sanjay is son of legend music director Salil Chaudhary and he is a genius in background score and can handle any genre of music with utmost ease and working with him is a joyous experience. I have scored the background music of more than 20 films with him. In between I have recorded music for advertisements, slogan, jingles and also music albums. Also I scored background music for 2-3 films but now WAR CHHOD NA YAAR is my first film where all songs are composed by me and the background score is also done by me.
How ddi you land the assignment for WAR CHHOD NA YAAR?
Faraz Haider is an ad-maker. We have done more than 15 ad films together. I know that he is a very intelligent and fast-thinking person. When he decided to make this film, he approached me for the music. I have composed all nine songs but only five songs have been put into use.
Which is your favorite song of this album?
For me, all the songs are very good. I used a different rhythm pattern in Jai Jawan. When you listen, you will find Gujarati, Marathi, Punjabi, South Indian and other patterns all mixed into its music and the song is very melodious. Listeners are liking all the songs. It is a great reward for me. I hope the audience will like my work in the film and film will be a success at the box office.
