Composer A.R. Rahman, who scored "Slumdog Millionaire," "The Hundred-Foot Journey" and countless other movies, explores the traditional form of the raga, playing a cool, lovely set on the keyboard, joined by viola, chimes, drums and ethereal vocals. "You might not know what it means," he says, "But you can feel sublime beauty the way it's sung."
