Hariharan released a new album named 'Waqt Par Bolna' in a star studded launch on August 22nd. Music maestro A.R. Rahman launched the album with Hariharan. Obviously, Hariharan delighted all present with an exhilarating performance from his new album. 'Waqt Par Bolna' is a synthesis of rhythm & blues fused with Indian gayaki in contemporary style. Hariharan calls it 'Urdu Blues'. Tune in here at mastradio.com to check out the tracks. Those familiar with Hariharan's previous work with Leslie Lewis on 'Colonial Cousins' are in for a treat. It is really a well done album with all ten tracks enfused with different scores. 

“This album contains emotions, harmony and music that I believe every individual will cherish. The album has been created by musicians from various backgrounds. It is creative, different and a mix of East and West,” says Hariharan.

Shridhar Subramaniam, Managing Director, SONY BMG India, added “It has been our privilege to be associated with Hariharan and his brand new album – 'Waqt Par Bolna'. He is undoubtedly one of the most respected and versatile artists in the music fraternity today. With his new album he has created music that is awe-inspiring and spellbinding. We are sure it will leave his countless fans asking for more.”
