The spirit of India and indeed, every
sovereign nation thrives on patriotism. Today’s world has seen many
families emigrating in search of greener pastures, yet the longing for their
home country follows them wherever they go. Patriotic songs enhance each
individual’s identity, reminding them of their roots and setting off
nostalgic chords of the heart.
These songs aim at bringing together not only Indians, but the entire global
population to join in and celebrate truth, justice and freedom. The central
focus of this album is to celebrate the spirit of independence and peace
throughout the world.
This album highlights the need for unity in diversity, perseverance when
faced with adversity, and compassion in the face of malice. To each
individual the thought of their home country brings moist eyes, fond
memories and above all the warmth of love. The songs on this CD have
been carefully chosen to bring forth and spread throughout the world, this
warmth of love and universal peace and harmony. The main
singers Rajasree & Shromona are supported by
Partho and a band of
musicians playing traditional Indian instruments ably conducted by Debashish
Saha.
