If I were there in the audience, I would have stood there and applauded the whole time because every pulse of this performance deserves a standing ovation.
I don’t understand the language, it still gives me goosebumps.
Love from Russia.
I am not from India but I cried when i listened to Rang De Basanti. I l9ve this song. Cheers
32 countries people's are celebrating for ar rahman for india....tysm true genius ar rahman
So jealous of the audience!!!!! This a true masterpiece. They never fail to amaze us . What a performance!! What coordination!! Totally awestruck 🥺🥺
Success is Rahman dreamt of studying in Berkley and years later Berkley paying tribute to AR
Oh My!!!! I am the front singer of the „GospelChor Saarbrücken“ a German Gospel Coir and we sing often african repertoire. But this „Mumbay Funk“ is ... boah...WONDERFULL!
Imagine how wonderful our planet would have been if we celebrate every culture like its our own with no differences on the bases of religion, gender, colour etc etc
This isn't just a concert.. Its the true celebration of music... Oh my god. The energy is absolutely stellar at that concert hall!
Suddenly this world became so beautiful for me....wow no words❤️
They say 'One Country, One Culture', not a single soul in any country will buy it. Diversity is what makes us Indian.
You guys don't need Coke Studio, A.R Rehman is a walking, talking Coke Studio. Love and respect from Pakistan.
made my day i saw all the 16 parts today. the best thing I listen and saw today
I remember AR rahman concert in 2010 in Bangalore. Hardly out of college and no money in pocket, me and my friend were in the cheapest ticket row and couldn't see shit. We climbed the lighting pole of palace grounds just to catch a glimpse of mastereo. HE didn't disappoint and had thoroughly good time and slept in majestic as we missed the last bus...All hardship but still worth it.
If 'Yuva Yuva' gives you goosebumps, 'Rang De Basanti' brings you to tears. This symbolises the real 'Incredible India', where people are loved, embraced and cultures are celebrated. Thank you Berklee; lots of love to Mr.Rehman and his team.
What surprises me most is that the airtel caller tune at 1:18 is also composed by AR Rahman
he is true gem of Bharat
Wow, never seen such a diverse performing group!
People from all races, ethnicities, countries performing together - United by music!
Let's bring upon world peace!!
🕊️☮️☮️☮️🕊️
Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
The crowd there are the most luckiest to have witnessed such a musical experience...it priceless
I am from Northeast India, from small town of Arunachal Pradesh. I know I am not weak but I cried at the moment of Rang De Basanti. This is so good! 🙏
Everyone has a smile on their face while performin... while playin actually. These people are having fun. Every one of these 12 episodes my hairs standing on end. Berkelee you guys are awesome to have mr. Rahman as a mentor
*Sometimes you will get tired of loving and being hurt.But that's what love is..You just need to take a break and start loving yourself first. 💗💔💝💖💙*

The fact that they all are not just performing it but also enjoying themselves, makes it much more fun to watch! ❤️❤️❤️
Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
No drinks, no parties, just give me a pass for this live music for this new year
Leaving this comment so that I will keep getting reminded, whenever someone likes, about this masterpiece.
Who is the recording engineer ? God, what crisp balance, what tonal quality & depth ! And I've never seen a funkier and better looking bunch of men & women, grooving to the beat. The Berklee Indian Ensemble are an antidote to the darkness of these times. Salut !!
Imagine the effect of music on someone who understands both tamizh and Hindi. Blissful
Aaye haye.hmaray pyaray parosi.luv your way india🇮🇳 ..frm pakistan ❤😊🇵🇰
Love from Pakistan, What a mindblowing performance
I think this music concert from "Berklee college of music" is enough to show how many musical instruments A.R.RAHMAN sir uses to render one song.
No one for sure uses so many instruments to create such versatility in one song.
He uses maximum number per song.
Class😍
OMG TAKE ME TO INDIA PLEASEEEEEE💖😍💖😍🤩
World most talented music composer is AR Rahman. Love from 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Love from Tamil Nadu, What a mindblowing performance of our Tamilan AR Rahman
Damn... no matter where the modern technology takes us....tradition will always keeps us together and reminds us of who we are.
The woman who leads the group (full red saree) is G O A L.. 🔥
Unity in diversity.. ❤️
தமிழன் என்று சொல்லடா தலை நிமிர்ந்து நில்லடா...
every Second Gosepump!! Love you AR-RAHMAN
யாதும் ஊரே யாவரும் கேளிர்... ❤️தமிழ்நாடு
ഇതിപ്പോ ന്തുട്ടാ.... പാട്ടോ ഡാൻസോ... എല്ലാരും ഒരേ പൊളി 🔥 ഓർക്കസ്ട്ര കിടു ❤️
Luckiest person are the crowd witnessing this amazing perfomance
This is not performance....This is actually celebration....wow absolutely wow
Divided by state.
Divided by language.
Divided by cultures.
Divided by dance forms.
Divided by song forms.
BUT
*UNITED BY INDIA* 🇮🇳🇮🇳❤
this is the reason i pay my internet bill
അതിമനോഹരം.... A. R. റഹ്മാൻ ഉയിർ 💖💖
The first singer is Sri Lankan. Loved the whole performance from different ethnicities. Amazing guys. Beautiful India ❤️
Every A.R Rahman fan should watch this !
I don't understand even just a word but you all have to agree with me.They are not just singing they're also enjoying themselves 👏👏👏👏👏
A.R Rahman itself is an academy ! I have not experienced such details in any music composer. Love and respect from Pakistan !
This is one of the most beautiful and lovely performances I've ever seen on UA-cam. Proud to be Indian. Btw, I am from Mizoram 😊
This school of music is gonna bring big change in the industry of music in every corner of the world. More accurate, more perfect and more tuned n synchronised with making good sound of music with anything n everything! Big Revolution 🎉🎉
If they put on this concert again, people from all over the world would see it! What I would give to have been in that audience! They are all such wonderful and talented artists.
Goosebumps..... Nothing else literally.....we r so blessed that in our childhood we have grown up listening these masterpieces from the one an only master Rehman ......
AR.ரகுமான் இசை உலகின் அரசன்🔥தமிழுக்கென ஒரு சிறப்பு மிக்க மனிதர் ஜாதி மதம் இனம் உருவங்கள் வேறுபாடின்றி அனைவரையும் இசையால் கவர்ந்திழுத்த ஒரு மனிதர்❤
Boy...that energy when they start "रंग दे बसंती" like they mean it "अब देर न कर सच मुच रंग दे"..🔥.
❤️❤️❤️
They are not just singing they are enjoying every single beat of the composition....that makes it more beautiful
How many of you wish you were live in that theatre????!!!1
Literally they r not performing or singing.., they r enjoying their life at their fullest..
I love the energy. They went all out, singing, performing , feels , vibes... Didn't leave any stone unturned.
This part killed it....What a combination of songs, beats, Music, Enthusiasm Choreography, Costumes .....never seen such a perfect act .....u guys totally deserve it....
People physically present there must have had the best day of their lives. Such a masterpiece! ❤️🧡
Foreigners celebrate India's unity....and our politicens try to divide it only for political benefit...shame on our political leaders
What a talent on the stage...the singers....the orchestra ...not only showcasing their talents but having so much fun at the same time. The joy on their faces is just beautiful and contagious. Excellent!!!
AR Rahman would be proud to see this. Such diversity, unified by music. Everyone looks so happy and seem to enjoy themselves. Lovely!
Dears all humans 🧐
This is how to do things, either this way or stay at your house.
Extraordinary, masterpiece, elegance.
Endless love and loyalty ♥️♥️
Greetings from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦♥️ 🇮🇳
The fact that music breaks all language barriers is beautiful.
Anyone in 2024
I watched this live in Boston symphony orchestra. It was brilliant!
தமிழால் பெருமை A.R.ரகுமானுக்கு...
A.R. ரகுமானால் பெருமை தமிழுக்கு....😍😍😍😍
This is called vasudaika kutumbam, it means the world is one family, only music was done this epic movement. We deserve it.
This Epic medley made me proud to be an INDIAN 🇮🇳
Did anyone see our India is more beautiful with diversity... No country have such culture different with in it.. proud to be Indian..🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳, unity in diversity.
"All my life I had the choice between hate and love. I choose love and here I am," said A.R.Rahman while accepting the oscar award, may all beings think like you rahman
The orchestration here is fantastic I think. What a big sound. And frankly I find you can make anything work with a good old funky electric bass plugging away at the back! Really gorgeous, so colourful.
Thank you Annette Philip and team for this musical treat!
This is not a concert. It is a celebration maaaaan
Oh yuva yooovaah....
What a hair raising moment!!!
Rahmaniac for how he spread the magic of life- called music.
Man, this is heart winning and brings back some great memories. I was in US for several years and came back to India now. The whole "friends of India" kind of groups are so much fun to hang out with. Kudos!
I dream the whole world will be like this, there will be diversity but still all will be united. No discrimination based on caste, race, religion, color, language.
That's me and my classmates at recess lmao.
Jokes apart, THIS WAS MAGNIFICENTLY MAGNIFYING!! What a marvellous performance. My body was involuntarily moving along the beats the entire time.
One question: When a group sings Rang de Basanthi with that much power, how on earth anyone can remain seated? You've to dance or you're insulting the energy 😍😍
We Indians divided by states and languages but when matters come to intregrity we always proved we together 😘
Divided by states, culture, language, country
.
.
United by MUSIC❤
Nothing can beat the feel of hearing his songs in TAMIL
Loads of love from your neighbor state KERALA
The enthusiasm, the love and the power when felt in singing the songs depicts in the version they have presented. Be any language or state or whatever, when presented what you love with amazing passion results in outstanding performance!
I just loved it!
all the 16 versions!! Hats off guys #Shoutout to all of you !
