Welcome back to "Brothers in Music: The A R Rahman Edition" as we dive headfirst into the second half of our exploration of 1995.

In Part 2 of our journey through this iconic year, we drop you directly into the middle of our conversation—no prelude, no formalities. It’s as if you’re right there with us, experiencing the discussion in real-time.

We kick things off by diving deeper into the Rangeela soundtrack, where we explore the playful and spirited track "Kya Karein Kya Na Karein." This song, with its infectious rhythm and catchy lyrics, perfectly captures the youthful exuberance that Rahman brought to Bollywood.

Next, we move on to Muthu, the first collaboration between A R Rahman and the legendary Rajinikanth. We discuss how this partnership resulted in an explosive soundtrack that resonated with audiences. We also discuss how the Rahman-Rajini partnership evolved over the years, with largely mixed results. 

Finally, we turn our attention to Indira, one of Rahman’s most underrated albums. If you’ve never heard the songs from Indira before, you’re in for a real treat. We delve into the album’s hauntingly beautiful tracks and discuss why this soundtrack is a hidden gem in Rahman’s discography.

Joining us once again is the insightful Samvartha Sahil, whose deep knowledge and passion for Rahman’s music continue to enrich our discussion.

So, get ready for an immersive and engaging episode as we unravel the sonic treasures of 1995. This is "Brothers in Music," and the journey through A R Rahman’s musical legacy continues with Part 2 of 1995.
