Pancham Unmixed - R. D. Burman (2008) - (Movies To See Before You Die - Biographical / Documentary) |
Human species especially the kind residing in our part of the world, have a long tradition of recognizing the talent and capabilities of a master, only after he has left this beautiful world. A perfect example of this old ritual is the life of great R. D. Burman who ironically became hugely famous and got his due recognition for all his innovative and path-breaking works, only after his untimely demise on 4th January, 1994.

Thanks Bobby for sharing this. We grew up listening to all kinds of slighting remarks from elders whenever we said we are RDB\'s fans. The industry will never have another genius like him - so versatile, so appropriate, always. We never had a song where on the screen it\'s picturised in a bar with guitars and drums etc and you hear dholaks and tablas.

Yeah Shilaj, RDB was and remain one of those true musical genius, who will always be there for every music lover for ages to come.......... Thanks for writing in and Keep Visiting.......Cheers!

Bobby thanks, befitting review. True u are mentioning that we do not prize we have. RD was God\'s gift to us. Great that this docu has come up so the "Munni badnam" generation gets a view what music making really is.

Thanks Debanshu for you kind comment. Yes we really had so many GOD Gifted personalities in India but sadly the technology came a bit late and we couldnt film them and their work in the much required way. But ironically this makes them even more precious and immortal. Keep Visiting Cheers!. (And do search for the KISHORE KUMAR Documentary released by MOSER BAER too. If you can get it then its another not to be missed great stuff)

I\'ve always been a great fan of RD. He may have left this world, but his music will be here for ever. Credit goes also to all his team, who did a marvelous job. I\'ve seen Pancham Unmixed, it\'s very touching and for sure we have a lot to learn from the music of RD. I strongly recommend music lovers to watch this documentary. Regards

I was lucky to view this documentary at National Film Archive before it was released. I was eagerly waiting for this documentary to release after waiting for 8+ months finally it got release. I purchased this DVD and book set. It\'s worth every penny. I have seen this documentary at least 20-25 times and I still feel I should see it again!
There are so many songs we listen and sing unknowingly who is the creator! Watch this Documentary to salute R.D.

This PANCHAM UNMIXED DVD+book is extremely good and super thing to own. After it arrived it at my home, I read the coffee table book start to finish in one sitting and saw the DVD at least 8 times in 3 weeks! The way the director B-Siingh has connected the documentary keeps you tied in and the content from the great-artists is mind blowing.
