29th September:- Inquilab
Zindabad. A phrase that was coined by Maulana Hasrat Mohani in 1921 and later
popularised by Shaheed-E-Azam Bhagat Singh, it became one of the rallying cries
of the Indian Independence Movement. The revolution that aimed to end British
tyranny, oppression and dominance over the subcontinent might have succeeded,
but it has taken on a newer meaning in present day Punjab. Keeping this in
view, Sahaj Music Records announces the launch of their new single, “Inquilab”.
Sung by Ravi Inder Sheen, the song aims to promote the ideology of never giving
up and is dedicated to all those people who, despite facing numerous
difficulties, have never bowed down to any kind of oppression.
Talking about this new venture, the
producers Bhanu Sharma and Ved Yadav said that currently, Punjab is undergoing
a difficult time due to a rise in drug addiction, female foeticide, Casteism,
farmer’s suicides and violence. This song is an attempt to rally the youngsters
of the state to bring forth a revolution that aims to put an end to all these
evils. If all the youngsters and the entire population in general devote their
time and energy towards following the ideology of Shaheed-E-Azam Bhagat Singh,
Punjabi Society will once again reclaim its lost glory.“We have decided to
release the song on September 28, as this is the 90th birth anniversary
of Shaheed-E-Azam Bhagat Singh. By interacting with people at places like the
Darbar Sahib and Jallianwala Bagh on Bhagat Singh’s birth anniversary, we will
try to highlight the importance of the words Inquilab Zindabad and their
significance in today’s day and age”, says the singer of the song, Ravi Inder
Sheen.
The lyrics of the song Inquilab have
been penned by Prince Dhunna and Ravi Inder Sheen. It was Prince Dhunna’s poem
`Tusi kuj hor vehnye ho’ which touched a chord with Sheen and Sahaj Music
Records. Sheen then wrote and composed it in the form of a song to give birth
to `Inquilab.’ Prince Dhunna is a poet from Patti (Tarn Taran district). In an
attempt to sensitise as many people as possible, the team will be travelling to
cities like Amritsar, Jalandhar,
Ludhiana, Barnala, Patiala, Ferozepur, Faridkot and Chandigarh to
engage in conversations with people and hear their views about today’s Punjab.
This not only will help people to think of innovative solutions to tackle
today’s problems, but will also give the producers innovative ideas to come up
with more songs on socially sensitive issues.“Since we have planned to release
one song every month, this initiative will help us in understanding the
problems faced by the people living around us”, feel the producers.
