This is an awesome video Yashraj. One of the finest interviews / breakdowns I’ve done. Excited for the next episode . More love and power to you Yashraj

Salim is so pure at heart it reflects in his voice.

This guy Salim is the most cooperative person I have ever seen for an interview🔥

This is epic. India needs more honest, inside views into music producer's lives and their tech setup and how they "actually" do stuff. Like how they get their hands dirty. Maza aa gaya Yashraj. Thoda existential bhi laga. Ki sala you're just 3 years elder to me. Need to speed up with my career lol. 🤯🔫🔥❤️

There's a smile in Salim's eyes and the earnestness and passion while he's talking. No wonder this sincerity reflects in all his music. Big fan of Salim-Sulaiman and you too Yashraj! What a heartfelt interview Yashraj. Thanks for doing this.

You have Korean fan too 🇰🇷🇮🇳 mein intezar kar rahi hu aapka new dialogue with beats ... watched more than 100times sachi mei

What a guy yar. Listening to his songs since childhood. My favourite composer/singer from India. He's so gentle, humble and passionate about music. Inspiration for me ♥♥

Salim Merchant ❤️❤️ love his voice and how gentle he is.. one of my favourites 🤩🤩

Speechless. Salim sir talking with so much humility, gratitude, and respect towards another budding artist is highly commendable. Hats off!! Had never seen this side of Salim Sir. Well Done Yash! and Thank you!

Which is you most favourite Salim-Sulaiman album?

Salim-Sulaiman are one of the best Music Composers in our country ❤️ Wish them more success and wanna hear more songs from them 🙏

Even today when i hear "kuch kariye kuch kariye" it gives me instant goosebumps

Salim is so humble and down to earth. Damn!! He sets different benchmarks altogether. How did you not discuss about Fashion? Uska music and acting by Kangana . That combo is unforgettable 🙂

I seriously was waiting for someone to do this with all the composers and lyricists, always curious about what they had in their mind while making these great art forms. Please make more such videos. Cheers.

Salim has one of the most pure smiles I have seen on a person. Such a genuine guy and so humble! Many of his songs have been legendary!

Fantastic conversation !! There is so much peace in Salim Merchant's voice. Thank you Yashraj for bring this talk on the channel 💛💛💛

Wooow....I never realized music creation is so serious. I always thought it's something you just get it out of your heart. It's amazing how these people create music with deadline pressure and all. 💛 Huge respect for you guys Yashraj bhai....please aur bhi breakdown videos banao Pls pls

💛 we want more episodes like this.. enjoyed alot yashraj ji 😀

Haven't realized when golden 30 minutes passed. Too good boss. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 yash bhai

💛💛💛💛💛 You got it bro. Thoroughly enjoyed the episode. Salim Merchant is legendary. Not only a great musician, composer, singer, but the way he extends his support to up and coming artists, it's incredible. There are so few in the industry who are this approachable, this welcoming (just imagine, recording with them after being spotted on an Insta live) in their attitude.

I don’t know why I cried but I feel blessed with this kind of Interview and yes TR Rum Pum is my favourite too

This type of interviews gives lots of knowledge! Thank You Yashraj for this ❤️ 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

@Salim is very generous.. He is always down to earth and never fails to motivate other singers genuinely. Salim and Sonu Nigam are the best people of their fraternity.

It's magical to be a part of such a beautiful song making journey. 👑💜

Got to learn so many nuances and possibly an idea of how a thought evolves and unfolds with each passing stage. Feeling very fortunate to witness your interactive video. It was a very warm experience. Lots of virtues to learn from Salim Sir too. Thank you for this video interaction. I am taking along with me, a treasury of learnings of giving birth to good music. May Music prevail in making the world a merrier space.

This was the most amazing conversation watched after a long time....didn’t skip a sec ..loved it...plz do come up with more episodes...true conversations about music 🎶 only❤️❤️❤️

💛 just fascinated that creating music takes such technological resources too...😶

"Rab Rakha" from "Love Breakups Zindagi" was a great composition too!

What a brilliant video. Your questions and observations were on point from a musician's perspective. Looking forward to more! Bring it on

Salim is the most humble person in music industry today !

Now he feels like a web series, Everyday there's suspence and excitement for upcoming episode 😉🔥

Salim's voice is like an angel singing to you !

💛 One of the most engaging, entertaining, and enlightening interviews I ever saw! 2 genuine gems of 2 gens!! Give us more music, please!

Am not a professional but still enjoyed every second of it...Definitely want these interviews more...Oh and yeah 💛💛💛💛

He's such a humble guy, Salim sir

10:58 - This was the question which really bothers me while making music because after some reiterating and listening the song continously, people get immune to the imperfections of the song. I used to think that, this only happens with me. Thank you Salim Sir for clarifying this doubt. Thanks Yashraj Sir for making this series, It's really gonna help budding music composers and musicians to get a deeper perspective of how songs are made.....

🤩 background music of Krish is awesome EXCITEMENT CREATOR MUSIC throughout WHOLE MOVIE 🤩

💛💛 please असे episode अजुन पाहिजेत... खूपच मस्त... 💛💛

Salim Merchant is such a down to earth person 💛

Loved loved loved this Yashraj! ❤️❤️ God bless you for recording this! Salim- Suleiman is one of my favourite duos.. love their compositions, can't express how much I love them, how much I love this music, Thank you !

Amazing video! Watched it just now! Waiting for more such amazing interviews that give us an insight into the process of making music!

It's a really good initiative. We need this to create awareness about composers and composition process!!! Please create a series out of this

Can't wait for Music Breakdown with Yashraj Ft. A R Rahman💛💛💛

The best ever interview brought by you for us, the listeners. Thank you so much Yash.

This is an enriching talk , Salim is an awesome person , Salute !!!

That question, "composing a track from scratch", THAT DAMN QUESTION! God knows how many things I've tried and how many things my bandmates have tried... It's too difficult! Feels good to have the people on top certify the difficulty... THESE INTERVIEWS GIVE A LOT OF IMPORTANT INFO! Thank you for these Yashraj! Also, PLEASE do some serious music too, LOADS of us will listen to it intently! 💛💛💛💛

yashraj is really living the dream of hundreds of aspiring musicians.... And that is so inspirational

💛I'm Salim-Sulaiman's biggest fan in the world, & I'm glad you have asked to Salim sir about Ta Ra Rum Pum's background score ❤️😍 one of my favourite score ever, & noone asked it yet in any interviews... It was really best 🙏 Thanks for making this video yaar

💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛 You are my favourite KZfaqr and A Role model for me...... 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘 Keep it on Yashraj sir....

Never knew , how much hard work, trail and error goes into creating great music 🎵. Very insightful. What warm hearted person Salim sir is.

This is the stuff I would want to see. Thank you so much Yashraj for the quality content, often we forget the labour these musicians put forth, I am extremely happy to stumble upon this video!

Bhai, please make more such videos. It was so endearing to hear from Salim about the process of creating music 💛

I just can't get over the fact that how simply this interview was conducted. This is gem. Really great content. Hoping to see more from Yashraj! Beautiful !

Really love these insightful videos. You can see how enthusiastically Salim Sir was talking about his work. Just goes on to show an artist's love and respect for his art. Could you do one with Ajay and Atul sir. Even though I dont know a thing about the Marathi language, still I find their songs very soulful. They really deserve much more in the Bollywood industry I feel. 💛💛💛💛

OMG THIS IS ABSOPUTE GOLD CONTENT! and it's only the first episode!? Thank you so much!!

💛 This is amazing . So much knowledge and insight . Keep making this kind of videos. No interviewer would ask technical process questions

Salim is not just an excellent music director but alsoa great human being.

Thank you so much for doing this, Yashraj! So many iconic songs covered in half an hour... Nostalgic, educational, entertainment.. idk how many tags you can add to this video but needless to say that this was a wholesome experience. Looking forward for many, many more such episodes. And don't worry about living upto your 'meme' brand. Your non meme content has a separate fan base, keep going!
