The film which stars newcomers Ehan Bhat and Edilsy Vargas, also marked Rahman's maiden stint as a scriptwriter and producer respectively.

The album composed by A. R. Rahman had been in development for five years, since 2015. The soundtrack consists of 14 songs each in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages, which also includes the film's background score as well. 99 Songs marked the first Indian soundtrack album to use Dolby Atmos technology.[2]

It is Rahman's first Hindi album after his absence to the Bollywood music scene, since Mom (2017), the last Hindi film he composed.[3] The original version of the soundtrack album was released digitally through music platforms on 20 March 2020 to widespread acclaim from critics.[4] The Tamil and Telugu versions of the soundtrack which released on 26 March and 2 April 2021 were also well received.[5][6]

Background

[edit]

According to the title 99 Songs, composer A. R. Rahman revealed that the total number of the songs in the film does not have 99 in number, but the film will present 14 original compositions for each language (Hindi, Tamil and Telugu) and features some of his instrumental score used in the background music.[7] Rahman started working on the film's soundtrack in 2015 and since then its production was delayed, until its completion on 2020; with sources stated the delay due to Rahman's commitments in other projects, and the research work for the soundtrack. Adding to this reasons is he also started composing for Shankar's 2.0 in the same year, but the album's completion took a long time before being released in November 2018.[8] Rahman had stated that the soundtrack features some international artists.[9]

Lyrics for the original Hindi version of the soundtrack have been given by Navneet Virk, Dilshaad Shabbir Shaikh, Abhay Jodhpurkar, Munna Shaukat, Mashook Rahman and Raftaar. Madhan Karky, Thamarai, Kabilan, Kalpradaa, Rakendu mouli and Ananta Sriram were brought in to write lyrics for the respective Tamil and Telugu versions of the soundtrack. During the album production in 2017, Rahman had worked with Navneet Virk for some soundtracks like OK Jaanu, Kaatru Veliyidai and Viceroy's House, with awarding the World Soundtrack Award – Public Choice, for his work in the latter.[10] Shashwat Singh, who had played a role of a playback singer for the film's lead character Ehan Bhat, is an alumnus of Rahman's KM Music Conservatory, Chennai. During the film's production stage, Singh has recorded two songs with Rahman, Singh has heard on five tracks in the film. In December 2018, guitarist Keba Jeremiah tweeted that he has worked on the film's background score.[11] In March 2018, Randy Kerber who has played for La La Land and many Hollywood films announced that he did a session for the film's score.[12]

During the promotional event for the film's soundtrack on 20 February 2020, Rahman had announced that the film's soundtrack will be mixed, mastered and produced in Dolby Atmos technology. With this, 99 Songs became the first Indian soundtrack album to use this technology, and Rahman became the first Indian artist to do so. According to Rahman, he stated that each musical chord will strike an emotional connection with the listener, which was considered as an advantage with the album being mastered in Dolby Atmos.[13] The audio rights of this film has been bought by Sony Music India, thus marking the 23rd year association of the label with Rahman.[14]

Development

[edit]

During the time of pre-production, Rahman and Vishwesh Krishnamoorthy went towards an extensive research to find the suitable sound for the film's theme, when its first screenplay draft being ready for review. At the office of YM Movies in Chennai, Rahman played a melody that was echoing between them revealing that the delicate melody was now a thunderous entity, it became the theme music for the film, which was titled "The Oracle". Rahman joined hands with the Budapest Scoring Orchestra with flautist Kareem Kamalakhar and pianist Randy Kerber to record the bit score. The director Vishwesh posted a tweet stating it as: "the first bit of music to make it out into the world".[15]

In June 2019, Rahman shared recording of the song "Humnawaa" on Instagram, which was sung by Armaan Malik and Shashaa Tirupati.[16] This was the second collaboration between Rahman, Malik and Tirupati after recording for "Mechanical Sundariye", which is the Hindi version of the original song "Endhira Logathu Sundhariye" from 2.0.[17][18] When the film's post-production began, Arijit Singh started crooning for the song "Jwalamukhi" which also have a respective female version, recorded by Poorvi Koutish.[citation needed] Koutish a student of Rahman's KM Music Conservatory, was one of the participant of the sixth edition of Indian Idol, where she bagged the titular award.[19] Besides "Jwalamukhi", Koutish had also recorded two more songs with one of them being an instrumental version.[20] Rahman also picked Sarthak Kalyani and Swagat Rathod, who contested in their YouTube show ARRived, to record the song Veere Kadh De.

The 14-song soundtrack album consists of various genres which included rock, pop, ballad, melody, devotional and folk.[1] The song "Sai Shirdi Sai" which was included in the film's track list, was earlier released as a promotional single in April 2019 in three languages (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu),[21][22] as an independent track. It is a devotional Sufi number, sung by Bela Shende.

The soundtrack received widespread critical acclaim. Pooja Darade of Koimoi rated the soundtrack album 4.5 out of 5, stating "99 Songs takes us on a never-ending trip of music with a mix of different kinds of track, which is essential in the times of remixes and lack of originality."[43] Srinivasa Ramanujam of The Hindu stated that the film music have zero fuss and fanfare. The other speciality of this 14-track album is that it puts the spotlight on two supremely-gifted vocal talents in Shashwat Singh and Bela Shende.[45] Vipin Nair of Music Aloud gave the album 4.5 out of 5 and summarized "A.R.Rahman produces a thoroughly diverse soundtrack that is the best he has given Bollywood in a long time. An album that has been a very long time coming, and ends up being totally worth the wait."[46]

Moviecrow, gave the soundtrack 4 out of 5 and started "The whopping 14 song soundtrack is a nostalgic blend of good old Rahman melodies as well as composer leaves his own touch backed by an exceptional set of singers."[47] A review by A Humming Heart concluded, "The album overall succeeds in registering coherent, nostalgic yet refreshing sounds, and is one of AR Rahman's most definitive works since 2015", and gave 9/10 to the album.[48]

Devarsi Ghosh of Scroll.in reviewed it as "a 14-song album is allowed to take a qualitative dip every now and then. There is enough in 99 Songs to live with and revisit."[49] Ghosh praised the song "O Aashiqa" in its year-ender review stating that the song "brims with deep emotion that is cooked at a low flame, unlike most contemporary Indian film music where a tune gets deep-fried between layers of harmonies".[50] Film critic Baradwaj Rangan of Film Companion South stated that "99 Songs isn’t just a movie’s soundtrack album. It’s a ‘concept album’, like the whoppers that major rock bands used to make when music was more than just something you listened to while doing the dishes."[3]

Sankhayan Ghosh of Film Companion's Mixtape 2020: Best of Music in Hindi Films and TV listed two of the composer's album along with Dil Bechara. The article listed "Rahman had been away from Hindi films for four years, but suddenly having two albums in three months is proof that good things can happen in a terrible year. 99 Songs provided much comfort in those initial months, a song for every mood. A love song (O Aashiqa) that segues, midway, to something more spiritual, a stadium-rock anthem (Nayi Nayi), a jazz number (Soja Soja), a drunk, broken reprise version of the title track, a devotional song (Sai Shirdi Sai) that works like medicine."[51]
