This is an amazing insight into not just ARRs early and enduring 30-year+ genius and innovation but a masterclass in a ‘how to’ analysis of a masterpiece background score… Also struck me that in the ‘staircase’ scene, Aravind Swamy’s Sufi theme contrastingly complements Manisha’s Carnatic riff. Conflicting cultures harmoniously conversing ..just mesmerising intellectuality in using music for storytelling… He’s the same to date..

@@sanchitaghosh6289 How do u know it's stalking, in the first place? Nowadays ppl are using the word 'stalking' for everything as they wish. They are not aware of the meaning of the word. If getting to know a girl is stalking, then everyone will be single forever. Girls be like " He must have the guts to come and talk to me." but then they dont want them to look at them in public or "follow" them??? Like what???? Are boys suppose to read your mind to get to know you, and to know if u like him back or not???? I dont get it...In that movie, that guy was trying to get to know her. Whenever she came across him, she didn't even say "don't follow me" or showed any sign of being uncomfortable with his presence. What does that suppose to mean? Especially when there's no much of a technology developments to access and get to know about a person..How else should he tried to confess his love??? The main reason she tried to avoid him was bcs the difference in religion and she definitely knew the consequences. Not bcs she thought he was stalking her. Oh Come on ! Mani sir has nvr had the intention to teach negative things to his audience. He just shows the reality in his movies. If that looks like he's trying to promote stalking culture to YOU, then the problem is with you, not the movie or the Creator. Ppl talked about this thing for Dil Se too.. I just can't understand their thought process. Just because it happened to us and we personally went through something like it, that doesn't mean we should look at things with a suspicious and negative mind...

[@audi88]

Its not just Bombay, you have a similar feeling when you watch Saathiya. It originates from Chalka Chalka (like the thrill of love at first sight), the 2 trains crossing scene right after the song, then it gets lost in family troubles after marriage, and then it plays back as Rani comes back to consciousness during the end, rekindling the same old feeling of first love (making you teary). That's the leitmotif genius of Rehman for you! If you are a fan of AR Rehman, you might have sensed its effect 20 years back, even when you were too small to understand why.

[@abhinav13april]

And Dil Se..

[@karmeeleon]

I mean the scores used in Saathiya are essentially same the as Alaipayuthei's score (with or two motifs being changed or rewritten) but you make a very good point. Rahman does use motifs in both Alaipauthei/Saathiya and Dil Se. In fact, it's really obvious in all A.R. Rahman and Mani Ratnam films. However, my favourite one has to be Kannathil Muthamitaal.
