SDM Soundtrack
It’s one of the most buzzed-about films of the season, and a surefire Oscar contender. She’s an accomplished musician who made a commercial breakthrough with “Paper Planes,” one of the year’s biggest sleeper hits. Now, MTV has the exclusive scoop on the soundtrack that will bring M.I.A. and “Slumdog Millionaire” together for your listening enjoyment.
Renowned composer A.R. Rahman will release his critically beloved “Slumdog Millionaire” soundtrack online next week – and in stores next month – giving moviegoers the chance to take home his unique musical pastiche of what it feels like to grow up on the mean streets of Mumbai, India. In many early reviews of the recently opened Danny Boyle flick, critics (such as our own Kurt Loder) have praised the groundbreaking efforts of the music, which mixes the disparate worlds of Bollywood and hip-hop.
M.I.A.’s love for the Bollywood style had her recording inside A.R. Rahman’s studio in India, and she has referred to him as “the Indian Timbaland.” This new “Slumdog” soundtrack will make their collaboration “O…Saya” available for the first time, as well as a remix of her worldwide hit “Paper Planes.”
Other songs on the soundtrack include “Gangsta Blues” featuring hip-hop artist BlaaZe and “Jai Ho,” which closes out the film with a rousing sing-a-long that has reportedly caused some audiences to burst into applause. “The energy of the film takes you through a roller coaster,” Rahman, one of the world’s top 25 all-time selling recording artists, recently told Variety. “And that’s one of the main inspirations for the whole music.”
The “Slumdog Millionaire” soundtrack will be available online everywhere November 25th, and at finer record stores on December 23rd. here is the complete listing:
1. “O… Saya” Performed by A R Rahman & M.I.A.
2. “Riots” by A R Rahman

4. “Paper Planes” Performed by M.I.A.
5. “Paper Planes” DFA REMIX Performed by M.I.A.

i am rooting for rahman more than anyone in the world, but it seems like Jai Ho is not that much..... read on
The movie makes occasional references to Bollywood – most notably to megastar Amitabh Bachchan – and Beaufoy’s sunniness would fit in nicely with an industry where even the most serious and negative subject matter is turned into a vehicle for glossily produced song-and-dance numbers.
Even though A.R. Rahman, the most famous and lauded Bollywood composer, did the score here, Boyle resists the temptation to insert a fantasy musical number ... until the closing credit sequence, when the narrative itself is over. And, while it provides a bit of added energy, it’s far from the first rank of Bollywood production numbers.

Just had the pleasure of catching Slumdog Millionaire and hearing Rahman's background score in all its detail on my headphones. Its rich and textured and does full justice to Danny Boyle's vision of the incredibly chaotic but irrationally compassionate country we call home. It has great string work be it the Santoor or guitar (I thought I heard some VeeNa in some paces but cant be sure). As always there is great percussive work to depict the cadence of the overflowing populace and the best work is reserved for chase sequences. The BGM use is sparing but what is used is apt and augments the visuals very well.
