A bit like how “patience” (~patient) and “passion” come from the same Latin root: “pati” (suffering).

2/2 MNIK also experimented with a new lyricist, not particularly exciting imo. Javed Akhtar is certainly much more adept. I think ZNMD gets my vote! But KHNH is a good case study to see the evolution in both SEL’s music & the films, esp wrt India’s relationship to and imagination of the global.

Interesting to see how from KHNH to ZNMD the soundtrack sounds increasingly transnational. KHNH’s Pretty Woman credits Javed Akhtar as translator, and not lyricist, and thereby hangs a tale. The foreign setting itself becomes more n more like a character from KHNH to ZNMD.
