  • Aao Wish Karein

    EXPECTATIONS Since Aao Wish Karein gives the perception of a romantic entertainer; one does expect music to play a reasonably important role in the film. Also, since composers Ankur Tewari and Xulfi had come up with a couple of tracks worth humming in Ek Chalis Ki Last Local, one expects a certain quality from their soundtrack of Aao Wish Karein. MUSIC Beginning of Aao Wish Karein is surprising though with 'Sabse Peeche Hum Khade' kick starting the proceedings. This is the same song that...

  • Kurbaan

    EXPECTATIONS There are good, though not huge expectations from the music of Kurbaan. Good, because there are names like Karan Johar, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor associated with the film. Not huge, because the film doesn't belong to a quintessential romantic genre in the true sense, something which could possibly lend a 'safe' feel to the soundtrack. With the film having a background of terrorism to it, there is a certain restriction that happens to the commercial viability of the...

  • Fruit & Nut

    EXPECTATIONS Nil. Main reason being that the title by itself is such inconsequential and doesn't give any hint whatsoever of what the film is all about. The same holds true for the music (composed by Sangeet Haldipur and Siddharth Haldipur with lyrics by Saajan Aggarwal) as well that has silently arrived on the stands. MUSIC 'Heeriye', 'jaaniye' and stuff alike is heard in 'bhangra' track 'Bhangda Paale - Moovam 2 Da Groovam' which as inconsequential as the title...

  • Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani

    EXPECTATIONS Now this one does sound like a promising album. First and foremost names like Pritam and Irshad Kamil are good enough to result in a quality album. Case in point being Love Aaj Kal and Jab We Met where the composer-lyricist 'jodi' has already succeeded in creating magic. Secondly, the film is a romcom in the offering with heart-throbs like Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif being paired opposite each other for the first time. Thirdly, the film is a TIPS production and it would be...

  • Shaabash! You Can Do It

    EXPECTATIONS Film's title - Shaabash! You Can Do It. Music: Santokh Singh Dhaliwal. Producer: Unknown. Director: Unknown. Actors: Unknown. Promotion: Zilch. Hype: Zero. Expectations: Rock bottom. MUSIC Lyricist Kumaar writes the title track 'You Can Do It Shaabash' which is nothing better than an ad jingle. In fact from the very start till the finish, the track carries a jingle feel to it, whether in terms of theme, music or rendition by Soham Chakravorty. The pace too seems to have been...

  • Jail

    EXPECTATIONS There are limited expectations from the music of Jail. Reasons being that a) the movie's genre doesn't quite warrant popular music in the offering and b) Barring Fashion, Madhur Bhandarkar's films (though belonging to a league of their own) haven't quite relied upon the music. Yes, one does come across an occasional song or two from movies like a Page 3 or a Corporate that manage to make a mark. However, it has never been the case of music helping the film succeed. This...

  • Aladin

    EXPECTATIONS It all started six years back when the music of Jhankaar Beats was released. This was the soundtrack that brought together film maker Sujoy Ghosh with composers Vishal and Shekhar who have never looked back ever since then. In fact such has been the benchmark set by the composer duo in Jhankaar Beats that each and every album of theirs is expected to throw at least one 'Tu Aashiqui Hai' or a 'Suno Naa'. They did come up with some good music for Sujoy's next film Home...
