Sukoon, the title of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's debut music album as a composer was unveiled last year. The album will finally be released on December 7 on all music streaming services and apps by Saregama Music. “Two years in the making amidst the difficult times of COVID, I found peace, quiet, and love while creating Sukoon I hope you find the same while listening”, the director said in a statement after announcing the news.
There will be nine songs on the album, and popular vocalists including Rashid Khan, Shreya Ghoshal, Armaan Malik, Papon, Pratibha Baghel, Shail Hada, and Madhubanti Bagchi will all contribute voices to them.
The managing director of Saregama India Ltd., Vikram Mehra, stated of their partnership with Bhansali on this album, “If perfection had a face, then it must be Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and once again it’s evident through his labour of love Sukoon, a collection of 9 pieces of art in collaboration with the best of the singers from the industry. Not only are we excited, but proud for this association that undoubtedly surpasses any other.”
Bhansali made the decision to pursue a career in music composition through his directing debut, Guzaarish, and he has continued in that vein throughout all of his films to date, including Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram Leela, Bajiao Mastani, Padmaavat, and Gangubai Kathiawadi.
