Lyricist Turaz: Composing Ek Dil Hai Ek Jaan Hai for Padmavati was a challenge


The song 'Ek Dil Hai Ek Jaan Hai' from 'Padmavati' is winning hearts all over. Lyricist Turaz, who has composed the soulful lyrics of the song talks to mid-day about his experience in composing the song. Turaz says that this particular song has been used a crucial junction in the film, which takes the story forward. "I am happy that Sanjay Leela Bhansali allowed to use poetry in songs. His films personify love and he gives full freedom to writers to express their creativity. I have also written the other song 'Ghoomar' and it was a challenge for me to write that song as well. It was out of my comfort zone, but I still infused the song with poetry. 


He further adds, "I have used some of the words that my mother used to do in childhood and some I picked some words from the people in Rajasthan when I went there for a recce. I also lament at the fact that when people do reviews of songs these days, they do not mention the writers. Gone is the era when songs were known by the name of the writers such as Anand Bakshi, Sahir Ludhianvi and Majrooh Sultanpuri"


Turaaz further said that a great song filmed on Ranveer Singh will be released soon. The song is based on celebration and Turaz is sure that it would win hearts of the audiences. The film also stars Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and will release on December 1.
