Ganesh Vandana by Hamsar Hayat

Hamsar Hayat performance was outstanding in this Vandana

Singer Hamsar Hayat Video from Movie Tathastu



The film has only one song in form of a 'qawwali'. As per composer Vishal-Shekhar, its one of those intense 'qawwallis' that are a must watch. It is sung by sufi singer, Hamsar Hayat who is a chief qawwal at Nizamuddin mosque, New Delhi. Also it has some really gorgeous lyrics by Panchi. So be it! Tathastu is a 2006 Hindi film directed by Anubhav Sinha. The film is loosly based on Denzel Washington's, 2002 movie John Q. The film was completed in a record span of less than a month. 'Tathastu' is a Sanskrit word. It symbolizes the affirmative response by deities to their disciples' wishes. That's the reason why the tagline of the film reads - 'So Be It'. The film's highlight is a 8-minute long non-stop dialogue delivery by Sanjay Dutt in the confines of the Yerwada jail in Pune. The scene was shot using 6 cameras and had more than 2000 junior artists.
