Outlook in Rewind
10 Years Ago
At Outlook we had been toying with the idea of a special issue on Hindi film music for a while, but hesitated for several reasons. Wouldn't it mean too much italicised text in the magazine? Wouldn't the translation of song titles into English sound awkward, even comic? Just how do you translate Ramaiyya vasta vaiyya into English?
Then there was the other big question: how to pin down a song's appeal? Isn't an individual's response to a song something extremely personal and private?
