  • Aloo Chaat

    EXPECTATIONS One expects a decent soundtrack from Aloo Chaat mainly because the film's title conveys an impression of a young-n-spicy love story that has ample scope for music. Moreover, director Robby Grewal had ensured that his last film MP3 - Mera Pehla Pehla Pyaar had some nice feel good music and hence one knows for sure that it won't be a step down with Aloo Chaat. Moreover, with youngsters like Aftab Shivdasani and Aamna Shariff being roped in for a film, there are expectations of...
  • Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!

    2 years back when Khosla Ka Ghosla had released, not many had a clue of what exactly the film was all about. To everyone's pleasant surprise, the film went on to become a success and a new director was introduced - Dibakar Banerjee. Spinning a tale revolving around middle class people, he now comes up with Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! (OLLO) which is backed by UTV, the company which had also taken over Khosla Ka Ghosla. Title song 'Oye Lucky' is a kind of number which will sooner or later find...
  • Dev D

    EXPECTATIONS You don't really know what to expect from Dev D. Considering the subject (the eternal story of Devdas), you know that it has to be a musical in the offering. Looking at the inlay card, you find as many as 18 tracks being listed (yes, that's right, and we are not talking about the remix versions here). However, knowing the director, Anurag Kashyap, you are left wondering what to expect. After all each of his three films so far, No Smoking, Black Friday and Paanch (it's music...
  • Life in a... Metro

    Ever since the film Metro [now rechristened Life In A...Metro] was conceptualized, it has been in news for multiple reasons. a) It comes in the wake of Anurag Basu's critically and commercially acclaimed film Gangster, b) It has Basu joining hands with country's one of the top film making houses UTV Motion Pictures, c) Last but not the least a lot is expected from composer Pritam who has delivered Gangster with Basu and together the duo has promised a new sound in Metro by making a rock band...
  • Slumdog Millionaire

    EXPECTATIONS In the past A.R. Rahman has worked on international collaborations but other than the fact that his soundtracks make big news, they haven't been known much amongst the Indian audience. This is the first time ever that one is hearing a lot about this project of his because a) it has been set in India, b) all the actors in the film are Indians, c) the film is getting a mainstream release and d) there are awards and more awards that are coming the way of not just the film but also the...
  • Kya Love Story Hai

    Will Pritam be able score a Hat Trick after being Just Married in real life and proclaim - Kya Love Story Hai? One very much believes so because the composer has been the most consistent and versatile in the year gone by. With two delightful soundtracks in the form of Just Married and Hat Trick, it is hard to imagine him not doing too well, especially in a film like Kya Love Story Hai which belongs to a genre that allows him to be young, hip and cool. With lyrics by Shabbir Ahmed and debutant Lovely...
  • The Train

    This album is special and reasons are aplenty. Let's begin with the best of the lot before moving on to the others. First and foremost The Train marks the debut of Mithoon as a sole composer for an entire album. Before this soundtrack, the young lad has been coming up with consistently good results for his rearranged tracks 'Woh Lamhe' [Zeher] and 'Aadat' [Kalyug] , a superhit 'Tere Bin' [Bas Ek Pal] followed by equally popular tracks in 'Anwar' ['Maula Mere'...
  • Raaz - The Mystery Continues

    EXPECTATIONS Any follower of Bollywood, especially when it comes to good music, would certainly know by heart the entire catalogue that Vishesh Films has created in last two decades. And now when Bhatt brothers are ready to strike again with Raaz - The Mystery Continues (which is not a sequel to Raaz and mainly extends the horror-n-mystery genre forward), their music is in news once again. Write your own music review of Raaz - The Mystery Continues Would it impress yet again, just like majority of...
  • Fashion

    Fashion is the biggest project for Madhur Bhandarkar. Majority of his films have been low budget affairs (no, we are not counting Aan - Men At Work), whether it is Trishakti, Chandni Bar, Satta or Traffic Signal. Page 3 and Corporate saw the bar being raised when it came to money being spent on projects but Fashion jumps all bars when it comes to budget being set for a Bhandarkar film. The film has been mounted on a lavish scale, boasts of top-line actors (Priyanka Chopra, Kangana) and even sees...
  • Rock On!!

    Let's directly get to the point. Mid-way through Rock On!!, you end up rubbing your eyes (and also your ears) in disbelief. And by the time one is through the 9 song ordeal of Rock On!!, you start wondering whether it indeed had Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy at their spirited best when they were composing for this film which marks the debut of Farhan Akhtar as a director. Rock On also marks the debut of Farhan Akhtar as a singer who is heard in as many as 5 tracks. First to come is 'Socha Hai' which...
  • Ek Chalis Ki Last Local

    It is exciting times for Bollywood with plot driven films coming up with great regularity in practically every month. One such film is Ek Chalis Ki Last Local, the debut film of writer-director Sanjay Khanduri. Gearing up for release at just the right time after being in the making for around 1 and a half years, the film tells the story through the eyes of Abhay Deol who has his world changing around him in a matter of hours as he becomes richer by 2.5 crores in 2.5 hours. A Quartet Film that is...
  • Love Aaj Kal

    EXPECTATIONS Huge. Very huge in fact are the expectations from the soundtrack of Love Aaj Kal. And why not? First and foremost it's the return of Jab We Met team of director Imtiaz Ali, composer Pritam and lyricist Irshad Kamil. Now that's a reason huge enough. Moreover, with Saif Ali Khan playing the twin role of an actor and producer, one can be rest assured that Love Aaj Kal would be a zero compromise project both from the film and music front. No wonder, Love Aaj Kal is not just the hottest...
  • Big Brother

    A Sunny Deol film doesn't quite make one look forward to its music. Especially so when a film is an actioner with a title like 'Big Brother' and has been in the making for years. First film for which Priyanka Chopra shot before making her debut as a lead actor in 'Andaz', 'Big Brother' was earlier titled 'Deodhar Gandhi' and has Guddu Dhanoa at the helm. He is the same director who has delivered two successful films 'Ziddi' and 'Salakhen' with Deol...
  • Jumbo

    EXPECTATIONS This album may have gone unnoticed if not for the presence of a certain Akshay Kumar who has kick started the promotion of Jumbo with a promotional music video 'Everything Gonna Be Alright'. It is entirely due to this music video that one indeed looks forward to what exactly is in store in the soundtrack of this animation film which has a Thai origin to it. Though Bollywood hasn't really experienced even a remotely good soundtrack in the recent times when it comes to animation...
  • Ru Ba Ru

    First thing that strikes about the soundtrack of Ru Ba Ru is that it comprises of as many as 12 songs and that too all being originals with not a single remix version. Phew! Now that's something new in the current times when even a hardcore musical like Karzzzz is coming with only 9 songs (though there are 10 remix versions to boast). This makes one wonder about what exactly does the music of Ru Ba Ru have to offer? With 'Speed Of Sound', Satyadev Burman and Sameeruddin contributing to...
