In 1988, DD, national Broadcaster of India began the telecast of this TV-series named Bharat Ek Khoj. The amazing title track was the Hindi translation of Nāsadīya Sukta नासदीय सूक्त from Rigveda (10:129) by Vasant Dev, & music by Vanraj Bhatia सृष्टि से पहले सत नहीं था. Listen!

@avtansa I remember falling in love with the word अंतरिक्ष and asking my parents to rename me so. They didn't oblige, but I still think about it sometimes. Such a great and haunting chant.

@grittygandalf आप ख़ुद रख लीजिए। एक पेन नेम की तरह। कम से कम ट्वीटर पर तो रख ही सकते हैं। 😀

@avtansa Watching this as a kid, it was the reason I took interest in Skt later on. Wonder why more Skt lit hasn't been interpreted in music this way. With the exception of dhrupad, few examples of such musical re-interpretations come to mind - much fewer matching the genius of this one.

@avtansa It was the apex of TV serial making in India. In the natural scheme of things, we should have progressed from there. Instead,things just went downhill since then.I doubt if there'll be anything like it ever again. I remember Salim Ghouse in it...still the best Krishna till date.

@avtansa @drsureshpant बचपन में दूरदर्शन पर देखे गए कुछ प्रभावोत्पादक एवम् स्मरणीय धारावाहिकों में से एक है "भारत एक खोज"। वैदिक मंत्र (नासदीय सुक्त) आधारित इसका प्रारंभिक संगीत, सूत्रधार स्वर्गीय श्री ओमपुरी जी की दमदार आवाज कभी भी विस्मृत नहीं हो सकती। सर्वकालिक महान प्रस्तुति। प्रणाम।

@avtansa आज भी नासदीय सूक्त का वो उच्चारण सुन रोंगटे खड़े हो जाते हैं। कहीं सम्पूर्ण वेदपाठ मिल जाये उसी लय में, तो जीवन स्वारथ हो जाये। एक निम्न कोटि की किताब को क्या उत्कृष्ट स्वरूप दिया था - भारत : एक खोज की टीम ने।
