Barring the
truism, “Koyla kaala hai” (which can
be translated to, “Coal is black”), Zinda
– the track from Bhaag Milkha Bhaag –
was one of the best progressive rock numbers in a Hindi film.
The song was
three minutes and 31 seconds long. It was rendered by the debutant Siddharth
Mahadevan (the older son of Shankar, who composed the track with Ehsaan Noorani
and Loy Mendonsa).
Prasoon Joshi
penned the quasi-anthem, whose opening line went, “Zinda hai toh pyaala poora bhar le” (which can be translated to, “If
you’re alive, fill the cup to the brim.”)
