Guzaarish | Hindi Movie Songs



Despite a minimal instrumental backing, Sanjay Leela Bhansali proves his arranging acumen in the ambient title song. The harmonica, the violin have all been perfectly placed to make the song instantly addictive. Also helping it on its way is the rendition by KK and Shail Hada. That said, one cannot ignore the resemblance to tracks from some of his older movies, particularlyHDDCS’s title song. Sau Gram Zindagi is a very 90s-sounding ghazal-based tune given a modern orchestral packaging, and coming inKunal Ganjawala’s voice it works quite well. Shail Hada reappears with Rakesh Pandit to deliver the poem-like Tera Zikr. Though the poem-line rules out an attractive tune for the song per se, SLB kind of makes it up with the arrangement. And wonderful singing by the vocalists, especially Rakesh.

And then things start going wrong. In Saiba, Bhansali’s attempt to fuse the Latino sound with Vibhavari Joshi’s semiclassical vocals falls flat. Somehow they don’t seem to meld well. KK’s Jaane Kiskesounds quite a bit like the title song in its general feel, but lacks the quality the latter has in orchestration. The only thing that keeps the track going is KK’s reliability. The composer bounces back with the next track, Udi, where the Arabic elements in arrangement make for a wonderful listen coupled with Sunidhi’s exuberance.

In Keh Na Sakoon SLB once again returns to the orchestral melancholic theme of arrangement and ends up being one too many in that line. Shail Hada does a good job behind the microphone but that is not enough to prop this one up. Chaand Ki Katori is an excellent display of Harshdeep Kaur’s vocal brilliance and it is her singing for major part that makes the song enjoyable. Daayein Baayein sounds like a mellow version ofSaawariya’s title song and works in a similar manner, KK doing the honors for a third time. Dhundhli Dhundhli is credited to Shankar Mahadevan who sounds strangely different in this one. Apart from that I found nothing very interesting about the track, the orchestral arrangement getting way too tedious by now.

A decent debut as composer from Sanjay Leela Bhansali which would have been much better had he cut down on the number of songs, especially the similar-genre ones. But that was the case with Saawariya too. One would have expected SLB to learn from his past mistakes. Hope he’s done that at least on the movie front.

ANTAGONISTIC! Indian films have been benevolent to suave natured 'protagonists' but its darker and parallel versions ('antagonistic' or 'anti-hero') have not been justified by many. After delivering out back-to-back socially relevant cinematic treats, genius like Mani Ratnam is all set for the countdown that pitches the hottest pair of Abhsishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai in the lead roles. As expected from the long-list of musical successes of the past, its old compatriot A.R Rahman along with experienced Gulzar to deliver out the devilish tones for this horrifying love saga. The conglomerate of Mani Ratnam and A.R Rahman stared off with bang with ROJA (1992) that was successfully followed by equally successful albums like BOMBAY (1995), DIL SE (1998), SAATHIYA (2002), YUVA (2004) and GURU (2006). Expectations are huge and so are the credits of this much-awaited musical releases that features favorites of maestro's in the credits. Touted to be one of biggest releases of year 2010, this one promises something innovative as well as experimental in its packaging. Can the music of RAAVAN be as enterprising and challenging as one expects? Let's get straight into its musical facts...!

Ghastly in mood 'n' iconic in narration, A.R Rahman pelts out innovative spell of 'African tribal rhythms and sounds' to exude out the characteristics of lead character in 'Beera'. Gulzar's hot-headed narration is facsimile to his earlier penned 'Omkara' (OMKARA), depicting out 'ten' different facades, moods and phases of 'Beera'. Rahman's creative genius creates different drum sounds in varied pitches and timbres mixing well with prolong synth sounds in flows of electronic dance music. Vijay Prakash and Mustafa Kutaone's gruffly voices range from aggressive to cheerful moods while additional vocals by Keerti Sagathia adds to the gory situational needs. To give it tribal folklore appeal, there are rigorous spells of howling choral sounds in loud pitches to deliver out festive feel in the backdrop. 'Beera' adds to the listing of another valued experimental mode track that unravels new genre (tribal music) and creates hysterical feel about the on-screen happenings. Mani Ratnam's unmatched cinematic zeal will be out there to justify Rahman's genius and will be creating 'word-of-publicity' for the flick.

Tread-milling the path of emotionally volatile tracks like 'Satrangi Re' (DIL SE -1998 ), the next track titled 'Behene De' carries typical Rahman's stamp in its belligerent arrangements, sounds and beats. The highlight of the track is the progressive phili-harmonic orchestral displays at the concluding interludes, emoting out the turbulent phases in love-chemistry. Karthik's likable voice in softer tones has penetrative excruciation that carries out with varied sounds and rhythms with affable support of Mohammad Irfan as back-up vocalist. Rahman plays defined 'conductor' in maintaining equilibrium between subtle toned sounds (soft violin notes, lighter wind chimes and soft-drumming) in initial phases and aggressive orchestral displays in the latter half. Despite carrying situational song appeal, Gulzar's wordings ('Arrey aankh se boondh gira koi, Chingari ka tukda jala koi, Umeed ko aag laga zara, Sehra ki pyaas bujha zara...) metaphors the communicable painful ire of disheartened lover in simple verses. For all Rahman's fans, this one is listening pleasure that adds to the momentum of the album.

Aggression unlimited! The devilish tones of 'Raavan' get louder with daunting melodic metaphors of thumping drumming and shriller percussive moves in 'Thok De Killi'. It's Sukhwinder Singh along with Gulzar's wordings at the helm of affairs and the feel is violently antagonistic in nature. Like previous tracks, this one is too loaded with heavy-duty impulsive sounds and rhythms that give it an intrinsically theatrical appeal.
In 'Chhaya Chhaya' (DIL SE -1998), Gulzar introduced 'Bulleh Shah's poetry' base of Sufism that later became trend. It carries forward in 'Ranjha Ranjha', folksy sound number with outset of Punjabi folklore of 'Heer-Ranjha' in its earthen sounding lyrical works. Rahman's relives the euphoric feel of tracks like 'Ni Main Samajh Gayi' and 'Taal Se Taal Mila' (TAAL -1999) with gyrating seductive touches of 'Mayya Mayya' (GURU -2006). Javed Ali sings his heart out along with deep-throated Rekha Bhardwaj while there is added feminine oomph in Anuradha Sriram added vocals. Well suited for grungy forest locations, it bears out skirmish loving charms in its sluggishly roguish tones that are matched with instrumental zeal.

Reena Bhardwaj's soother tones in 'Yeh Rishta' (MEENAXI - A TALE OF THREE CITIES -2004) was blessing to ears. It was A.R Rahman's magic that created prodigy out of her and the magical touches relives again as she shimmers out in her svelte tones in 'Khilli Re'. It works on classical Indian musical base (preferably 'thumri' singing) with mesmerizing flute notes, lighter tabla and 'ghungroo' sounds that are mixed well with enthused chorals. Reena's vocals are the brightest of the lot and so is her immaculate command over modulations and variations in varied emotional singing moods. Unlike the haunting antagonistic feel of the flick, it serenades out soothing musical charms and spells out lighter romantic moments in its sappy packaging.

The last outing comes out for grand opulence for big screen with loud streams of drumming, ear-splitting percussions and folksy singing, mixing together to create commotion of affairs in 'Kata Kata'. Rahman's gets the pack of coarsely voiced singers (Kunal Ganjawala, Ila Arun and Sapna Awasthi) to sing out the tribal-festive feel soundtrack. It's complex and intricate in its formation as tribal instruments, howling chorals and rustic-flavored folksy wordings collage together to give it glitzy multihued splendor. This peculiarly sounded track brings out celebratory feel of 'Rukmini Rukmini' (ROJA -1992) with majestic lavish touches of 'Azeem-o-Shaan Shehenshah' (JODHA AKBAR -2007). Mani Ratnam's experience and intellect is likely to be making this one as everlasting silver screen feast for viewers.

RAAVAN is devilishly experimental and creatively likable album. It's none other than the maestro A.R Rahman himself who can dare to this big challenges of glorifying the ultimate devil ('Raavan') and still delivering out the needful. Despite its intrinsically gruesome and horrifying outlook, the soundtracks fit well in to the situational mood with quality singing and composing. One can expect huge likings for tracks like 'Beera Beera', 'Behene De' and 'Ranjha Ranjha' while rest of them will rise up high with flick's promotions and success. The combo of Mani Ratnam and A.R Rahman had been magical in the past and so will be the future with this music launch. Stay tuned to your radio stations to hear and listen more about these soundtracks...

Break Ke Baad | Hindi Movie Songs






Break Ke Baad

Music Directors: Vishal Dadlani and Shekhar Ravj
Lyricists: Vishal Dadlani and Prasoon Joshi
Singers: Vishal Dadlani, Alyssa Mendonsa, Neeraj Shridhar, Shekhar Ravjiani, Sunidhi Chauhan, Caralisa Monteiro, Mikey Mccleary and Nikhil D'Souza
Vishal and Shekhar know the pulse of youth and so their music is usually young, hip and zippy. Repeating the trend, the composer duo has rendered some interesting and upbeat songs that are bound to be liked by music lovers, especially the young generation.

The album boasts of eight tracks, including one remix and one acoustic version.

It sets the mood with its first track Adhoore, which is already making waves among listeners. Crooned by Vishal and Alyssa Mendonsa, the peppy, foot-tapping love song that describes the two main characters in the film is quite interesting and entertaining. A good start to the soundtrack.

The song also has a remix version, which is faster in pace.

The next is Ajab leher that has Neeraj Shridhar, Shekhar Ravjiani and Vishal behind the mike. The upbeat song that talks about one's neighbour makes good use of the saxophone, which is quite appealing. It's catchy and has the potential to become a favourite.

Next is a soft song, Dhoop ke makaan, sung by Shekhar Ravjiani, Sunidhi Chauhan, Caralisa and Mikey Mcclearyu. The track is quite melodious even though the music is subdued and the focus is on vocals and lyrics. A decent number.

The song also has an acoustic version, which is more appealing. It has a raw feel that gives it an edge over the original.

Then there is Dooriyan hain zaroori, a song that talks about the concept of space in a relationship. With rock influences, the song attracts attention. It is catchy and has spunk, which helps it stand tall among the other tracks.

The soundtrack also offers an English song, which is situational. "Don't worry about me" is likeable but, because of the language, might not enjoy mass appeal. Nevertheless, a good hear.

Finally, there is Main jiyoonga that starts with a bang. With piano as its predominant instrument, it generates quite a lot of interest. A good way to end the album.

On the whole, Break Ke Baad offers a robust mix of songs that are hummable and will be enjoyed by a majority of people.

Lafangey Parindey Movie Reviews

For the most part, Lafangey Parindey trundles along at a fair clip, although it never turns into anything more than a predictable ride. On the way, there is much bump and grind, and flying fists and bloodied noses too. But behind it all is a wholesome human tale that celebrates the doggedness of those that are down and but not out.

Film: Lafangey Parindey
Music Director: R. Anandh
Lyricist: Swanand Kirkire
Singers: Ronit Sarkar, Mohit Chauhan, Shail Hada, Anushka Manchanda, Shilpa Rao and Suraj Jagan

The music of the film is simple, easy to understand, yet different. The album boasts of six originals and one remix version.

It starts with Ronit Sarkar singing the title track. The song begins with very middle eastern music, but soon other instruments can be heard. Later it acquires a rock touch and makes it an interesting song for the youngsters. The track, about a group of free spirited people, is already on air and is being appreciated.

Lafangey ParindeNext in line is a light romantic number Man lafanga
that begins with the sounds of an acoustic guitar. Mohit Chauhan's voice suits this breezy, enchanting and free flowing song. It is melodious with less orchestration and instantly strikes a chord with the listener.

The song also has a club mix, which is not so appealing.

Things pep up a little with Dhatad tatad, a song about life crooned by Shail Hada and Anushka Manchanda. It has strong orchestration and heavy distortion, but fails to create a mark.

Then there is Nain parindey that has Shilpa Rao behind the mike. The song actually grows on you with its great composition, sedate melody and impressive vocals.

Rang daalein thrives on western beats and has a rock touch. Sung by Suraj Jagan, it is spunky and totally entertaining.

Finally, the album offers an instrumental track Born to fly that is intense and slow in the beginning dominated by a piano and picks up tempo after a few minutes.

On the whole Anandh has made a comeback with an entertaining album.

Chance Pe Dance Songs




Expecting too much from a soundtrack that provides a mixed bag at best is a dangerous move. But then again, is that our fault as listeners? We simply have to expect, expect, and keep expecting. While some expectations are fulfilled, some simply aren’t. The soundtrack of Ken Ghosh's latest movie, Chance pe Dance falls into the unfulfilled category where all we get is a few good dance numbers alongside some poor ones as well. And considering the music composer is Adnan Sami, who does a lot of hard work in his compositions, this album turns out to be nothing but sheer dis
appointment!

The opening track, “Pe… Pe… Pepein” sets the right kind of mood for the rest of the album due to it’s high tempo, electrifying beats and the sound arrangements by Eric Pillai (no wonder the song sounds Pritam-esque as Eric Pillai is used for almost all Pritam albums for sound mixing and arrangements). The chartbusting combo of Neeraj Sridhar and Saleem Shehzada has been repeated after “Aahun Aahun” from Love Aaj Kal to give this number yet another mind-blowing feel. The Pe… Pe… Pepein shenai has been repeated from Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’s “Oh By God” (another Pritam track). Despite all the Pritam-ized elements, one cannot help but shake your body to this one. One helluva number, it also features Hard Kaur as backing vocalist, giving the right urban/bhangra touch to make it the perfect Pritam number. Wait, this is composed by Adnan Sami right? So why am I getting confused? Because Adnan Sami has ripped the style, sound arrangement – what the heck, he’s even taken Pritam’s regular sound arranger and mixer to make it sound so frighteningly similar it could be termed a copy. And considering Adnan Sami has a typical trademark in his own compositions (not seen here I might add!), it might be a very unpleasant surprise to some ardent fans of his music. But considering all that, it still is an addictive number that has potential to go right up the charts. If only Sami had experimented with his music more than take the tried-and-tested route of success!

Next comes the most publicized song of the lot, and this is also arguably the best in the whole album.“Pump It Up” , as the track is called, is not really a rock track but has a solid dance feel to it. And with Vishal Dadlani behind the mic, what can go wrong? His excellent, husky, upbeat voice sparkles on the extremely powerful beats and the electronic guitar pads, which make an excellent combo. One of Adnan Sami’s most accomplished works till date, this one shows he has it all in him to do anything he wants! Lyrics by Irfan Siddiqui are nothing to speak about, but really set the tone for the whole song as a package. The added Na…Na…Na’s actually give the track an excellent groove. The percussions and the synth samples blow the listener off and make him/her dance. Mainly a dance number, this can actually be called the unofficial theme song of the album due to the whole ‘feel’ of dance and freedom of expression captured in this whole song.

DJ A-Myth’s “Pump it Up Remix” is efficient but I personally still feel the original leaves a better impact.

Next comes a romantic track, “Pal Mein Hi” , which is an utter wash out, simply because it lacks soul. It tries to be as urbanely romantic as possible to attract the listeners, but fails miserably thereby resorting to a ho-hum track only. Shreya Ghoshal’ singing is efficient, though she is relegated to the dubious position of being an almost-backing-vocalist in this one. Unfortunately, Soham Charkraborty doesn’t put his heart into his singing, which is audible. He sounds like Shaan at times. The lyrics are okay, but the packaging as a whole is a clear thumbs down. Average at best.

Kunal Ganjawala makes a spirited attempt to raise the mediocre bound techno-driven track“One More Dance” to a passable level and he succeeds to some extent. However, the track is more or less situational in nature and should find ample support with exceedingly impressive visuals. The sound arrangement is impressive, but the punch is missing, which is certainly something that shouldn’t happen in such a dance-oriented album. The lyrics are nothing to talk about. Period.

And the singer returns yet again to prove himself in a retro styled track called “Yaba Daba Yahoo” . This one stands out as a decent situational track that actually makes you feel weirdly happy! Just like “Gori Gori” (Main Hoon Naa) made us do that small twist-jig we do when we hear such tracks, this track gives you the same effect. Kunal Ganjawala is in his best form here and you feel like letting your hair down and taking to the dance floor! The lyrics are more ‘happy’ in nature and you’ll have that grin on your face while listening to the song. All in all, this is a delicious respite from the disappointment of the previous songs. One can only hope for the rest of the album.

But – oh no! “Rishta Hai Mera” brings it all down again. The music is good in patches but the choice of singers is questionable. In fact, Tulsi Kumar doesn’t really gel well with the proceedings of the song. And she doesn’t impress either, in all honesty. Shaan, on the other hand does impress, but Tulsi neutralizes the effect Shaan brings for the song. This is plain 90s stuff that tries hard to be modern but fails.

The last original track, “Just Do It” should be accused of a short timeline, because it’s amazingly well composed (this one by Sandeep Shirodkar), well-arranged, and well-mixed. The lyrics are hilarious, and the listener will be able to visualize the proceedings on screen for this. Amitabh Bhattacharya has this incredibly creative mind to churn out such wacky lyrics (something he did for most of Dev.D). The beats are amazing, and you need good speakers or headphones to enjoy the bass in them. Simply enjoyable. How I wish it could have been longer! Too short for it’s own good.

The album ends with “Pe…Pe…Pepein…” (Duet) , which for some reason introduces Tulsi Kumar into an already decent song. Since she brings no benefits, you end up wishing they didn't make a second version featuring her in this one! Where is the charm of Tulsi Kumar that was so inevitably present in “Akele Tanha” from Darling? I request her to choose her genres wisely the next time round.

Ken Ghosh has been a music video director for as long as I know. Remember Baba Sehgal’sThanda Thanda Paani? Ah yes, he’s a successful music video director from those wee days. And considering that, he should really have a stronger sense and taste of music than what he portrays here. Whilst the music from his previous movies, Ishq Vishk and Fida (both by Anu Malik), made me feel that he really understood the music he put into his movies, this effort puts me into doubt!

To put it bluntly, he (and the team behind the music) could NOT have taken the music of a movie such as Chance Pe Dance (with music itself a heavy influence) so lightly as demonstrated here. Also, this being a Shahid Kapoor movie (and Shahid Kapoor movies usually boast of some amazing music) disappointed me immensely. Adnan Sami, who impressed me in the past with his music for Lucky and Shaurya disappoints here. It seems Ken Ghosh’s choice of music director for such a movie has proven to be the wrong one especially given Pritam’s record. Not that Adnan Sami is a bad composer, but he is clearly best suited to different genres not dance/urban!

Overall, Chance Pe Dance is a disappointing album that could and should have been so much better.
