WORDS

There is a lot happening about the WORDS, said by Amir Khan, a very fine actor, about the lyrics. If you haven't read those, then you are lucky. As per him, A song is famous because of the actors and not because of the lyrics.. Ch Ch Ch

How could he forget that as per our philosophy, the whole universe was created from a word: “AKSHAR”. Meaning, that which can not be destroyed. Words are first created in the thoughts, and then take shape. Emotions flow through them. And without the given emotions, through the written words, an actor, even of the capability of Amir Khan, can not emote on screen. He would look dumb and faceless on the screen.

Many a songs, which have been in the background score of the films, have been a huge hit. Hindustani music has colour and variety, while English songs sometimes sound monotonous with similar pattern of rhythms etc. BUT.. We still keep singing and enjoying these songs, because of the lyrics. Who can forget the songs like..Its only Words, or.. I just called to say, or.. I am a woman in love.. Or Kabhie Kabhie.. or Neela Aasman..

If his knowledge about the writers is poor, then he can’t blame it on the lyricists. Even Rabindra Nath Tagore’s songs are remembered more for the words.

Please remember that WORDS are the soul, Music to them is the BODY, and actors are only the ATTIRE
