I also have this doubt. Bankim Chandra Chatterjee's novel was on 18th century Bengal...I wonder, who composed the first ever tune for this poem ? ...or how did the tune for this poem originate ?

Pratick...I salute thee... Vande Pratickm...
What a bindaas site....Mercury go and take a look at that site.. I wonder if we can even get a copy of Vande Mataram in Gurudev's voice ! That would be the ultimate collection !

Unfortunately, I haven't found it on CD or in MP3 format.
But it is available on tape, alongwith lots of other Tagore songs in Gurudev's own voice.

Meghal,
I am practising this.
I was listening to it that prompted the question.
Vande Mataram is Sanskrit.
But I was doubful about the other parts. didnt sound like the Sanskrit I learned.
Yes its a Wonderful poem and even more wonderfully done by Lata / Hemant.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I once made a mistake, but I was wrong about it.
Quote:
Duh Meghal !
I was referring to the poem in the novel..not the song in the film..The song was adapted from the poem ( and thats a different story by itself..how the music was composed...Anil Biswas ?)
I should have renamed by topic as "digression from the original question". But still, how is the song "Vande Mataram" different from the poem itself?
Quote:
On a side note...how would u rate Vande Mataram by AR Rahman ?...
YUCK. Even though I like ARRs music, he should not have taken the liberty of tampering with masterpiece. I just can't bear the sound of ARR yelling at top of his voice. I always changed the channel when it aired on TV. Lata's sound in that song sounds too jaded and old. Give me the original Hemant Kumar masterpiece anyday.
Quote:I second that !

Me too. AR's version sounds like an adultery with original one.
