Conventionally an ode to the goddess, the gondhal here too is a celebration of Anandibai.
Majhe Mauli ’ is a gondhal song sung by Jasraj Joshi that follows the traditional percussion-heavy arrangement with an interesting shift in rhythms through the song.
The talented Aanandi Joshi and Hrishikesh Ranade lead the vocals here, and once again the chorus is wonderfully employed, cutting across the dreamy soundscape with a refrain that marks the song’s switch to classical-heavy mode. One that traverses the ragas - shuddh sarang, Saraswati and bhinna shadja. The composers take a more classical-flavoured route for ‘Īnandghana ’ that talks about the protagonist’s relationship with her husband, and we get another fabulous melody in the process. Yogesh More’s shehnai adds that auspicious touch at the right moments, and the chorus voices rendering those ovi-styled refrains seemingly layered in accordance to the call-and-response format of the genre. Ethnic percussion that keeps changing mode in each verse (in line with the tune change), I loved that every verse is set to a different melody, such a rarity these days. While the melody itself is a beautiful one (top singing job by Ketaki Mategaonkar, who has featured in the composers’ past works too, and Sharayu Date), the composers are brilliant with the arrangement.

The composers have drawn a lot of inspiration from natya sangeet, which has its roots in the same era, for the songs. It’s delivered spectacularly by Priyanka Barve - one of the many highlights ofĪnandi Gopal ’s soundtrack is its splendid assortment of singers. All of which is interestingly generated with shehnai and tabla, and made to sound like a pipe band. Waata Waata Waata Ga ’ is a cheery folk-flavoured song set to a horse-cart rhythm, punctuated by a familiar marching band tune. Given that Datar, Bhalerao and Joshi are naturally inclined towards melodic pieces, a biopic project like this is right up their alley.Īnandi Gopal is a period one, set as it is in the later 19th century (The protagonist lived between 18), it is only in one song where the retro feel is conveyed in an obvious filmi fashion. The same team is back together for the fifth time, with their most ambitious project yet, the biopic of Anandi Gopalrao Joshi who is credited with being one of the earliest Indian women with a medical degree. Time Please (2013), their debut film together. The composing trio of Hrishikesh Datar, Saurabh Bhalerao and Jasraj Joshi have had a rewarding association with director Sameer Vidwans that dates from
