Words are not enough to describe the beauty of the Sufi fusion composition 'Khwaja Mere Khwaja' from the movie Jodhaa Akbar. A.R.Rehman has outdone himself in this one. The music of this song is Spiritual, Transient and full of humility. Rehman has used word endings to rise into beautiful crescendos - overlapping, dancing and clapping into one big whole.
The video of the song is as brilliant as the composition. The perfectly symmetrical pairs of the kawwals, their simple white dresses and their controlled movements offset the rich, multi- layered composition. Khwaja mere Khwaja is, undeniably, one of the best peices of contemporary music.
Try listening to 'Khwaja Mere Khwaja' on your headphones. You are sure to fly!

so true... in fact, every spiritual song by Rahman is a gem whether it's Al Maddath Maula, Piya Haji Ali, Zikr, Marhaba & even O Paalanhare
Yeah it is quite nice.But can you imagine real akbar joining with the musicians and shake a leg. Guess having Hritik and no dance is not value for money!
