After the title Veer-Zaara, it?s the music of the film that is making news. Yash Raj Films have always come up with rich and soulful music in their films and the music of Veer-Zaara is no exception, being nothing short of a classic. It brings together three of Indian Cinema?s biggest legends - the late Madan Mohan, Lata Mangeshkar and Yash Chopra together for the first time. This album is sure to give music lovers a much-awaited bouquet of timeless melodies.

With lyrics by Javed Akhtar, it features singers like Lata Mangeshkar, Udit Narayan, Sonu Nigam, Gurdas Mann, Roop Kumar Rathod and Ahmed Hussain & Mohd. Hussain. While the Audio cassette features 9 songs from the film, the Audio CD has 11 songs - including 2 additional songs, made specially for this album. These include a rare duet by Lata Mangeshkar & Jagjit Singh.

The Madan Mohan - Lata Mangeshkar combination has created history various years ago... and what's even more historic is that Lata Mangeshkar at the age of 75, has sung 9 songs composed by Madan Mohan in Veer-Zaara, thirty years after he passed away.

The music of Veer-Zaara has myriad moods. Songs to appeal to everyone - featuring two moving emotional songs, three romantic love songs, a frothy folk song, a memorable qawwali, an inspiring song in praise of the motherland as well as an exuberant youthful song.

The Audio CD of Veer-Zaara comes as a 2-CD pack, which also includes a special CD featuring the making of the songs of Veer-Zaara, from the scratch tunes in the late Madan Mohan's voice, to the final renditions as appearing in the film. It is almost as if he is presenting this CD himself and explaining the tunes to the singers and musicians. It also has special commentaries by Yash Chopra & Lata Mangeshkar. This Making CD only comes as a part of the Audio CD pack of Veer-Zaara and is a must have for all music connoisseurs.
