Main Aur Mrs Khanna - Music Review

Read more! Cast :: Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Sohail Khan, Bappi Lahiri, Preity Zinta.

Few seconds into the song 'Don't Say Alvida' and you know for sure that Sajid-Wajid have a super hit in hand in the form of 'Don't Say Alvida’ title track. Belonging to old school of music which has a timeless quality to it and has more often than not always worked, 'Don't Say Alvida' is a modern-day Bollywood love song. Coming close to the kind of music that one has heard in Salman's films like Har Dil Jo Pyaar Karega and Chori Chori Chupke Chupke, 'Don't Say Alvida' has Sonu Nigam at his best. The singer is heard in lesser number these days but when he sung a marvelous track like 'Don't Say Alvida', no one mind fo the quality. Shreya Ghoshal joins a little later in the day while Suzanne D'Mello is primarily a backup vocalist here. Still, they do make their presence felt in this Junaid Wasi written song that also appears in a well done 'remix' version and also a 90 seconds slow-n-sad version (a Shreya Ghoshal solo).

Now it's time to get into a 'Kajraare' (Bunty Aur Babli) mode with Sunidhi Chauhan bringing on 'Happening'. Even though the title gives an intuition of an English number in the offering, 'Happening' is mainly a catchy term that plays throughout this 'qawalli' which is written by Jalees Sherwani. Picturised on Preity Zinta ( she an important role to play in the film), 'Happening' is a foot tapping number that takes just a couple of listening to register with the listener. A good number which has been created for the masses and yet doesn't turn vulgar at all, 'Happening' is fun, foot tapping and quite enjoyable for its duration.

From love, romance and dance, mood of the album becomes serious with 'Rabba'. With Rahat Fateh Ali Khan at the helm of affairs, one do expect the kind of outing that 'Rabba' would provide. A slow moving soulful track that does has a quiet feel to it in spite of a sad theme, 'Rabba' is situational and yet effective.

The opening few seconds of 'Tum Ne Socha' do remind of the sound of 'Soniyo' (Raaz - the Mystery Continues) . However all similarity ends quite soon and Sajid-Wajid create a tune that does make you appreciate it during the first listening itself. One is assured that Wajid is taking his job quite seriously as a singer, courtesy his rendition of 'Tum Ne Socha' where he is indeed good. 'Tum Ne Socha' is a very pleasant sounding duet with Shreya Ghoshal joining Wajid behind the mike. A beautiful contemporary song that has been written by Arun Bhairav.

The album ends with a fun of ‘dhol beats' of 'Mrs. Khanna' being straight out of 'Pretty Woman' (Kal Ho Na Ho). A fun track that is picturised on Sohail Khan and Kareena Kapoor, 'Mrs. Khanna' has a good rhythm to it which is straight out of the David Dhawan school of music. Heavy on orchestra, something that goes perfectly well with the genre of the song, 'Mrs. Khanna' is entertaining and should be a riot on screen if picturised well. Written by Jalees Sherwani and Suzanne, the number has Shaan and Sunidhi Chauhan as the prime singers with Bappi Lahiri, Neuman Pinto and Suzanne D'Mello also chipping in.

Do Knot Disturb - Music Review

Read more! Cast :: Govinda, Ritesh Deshmukh, Sushmita Sen, Lara Dutta, Sohail Khan, Ranvir Shorey, Rajpal Yadav, Himani Shivpuri, Rituparna Sengupta, Manoj Pahwa.

Nadeem-Shravan the hit duo of 90’s whao created Super hit songs for movie like “Aashiqui”, "Saajan", "Deewana", "Raja Hindustani", "Pardes" and "Dhadkan" are now returning with the music of "Do Knot Disturb".

To make it stylish and attractive, the duo composers have shifted from their trademark style. But barring two songs, most numbers are ordinary and have nothing new to offer

The film, which stars Govinda, Lara Dutta, Riteish Deshmukh and Sushmita Sen, is releasing on October 2. Its soundtrack has six original tracks.


The album opens with a pace number "Zulfaen khol khal ke", which is sung by Sonu Niigaam and Anuradha Sharma. If the beats are given a miss, the song sounds decades old. The lyrics are average. A very disappointing start, In short.

"Don't ever leave me". Shaan and Shreya Ghoshal have sung the fast-paced number. The lyrics give an feeling that it's a moving song, but somehow the song fails to make an impact on the listener. The English words in the lyrics seem forced and uncalled for. "Don't ever leave me" doesn't have the potential to stand out in spite of two talented singers.

First hit number of album is "Mere naal". The song, which has vocals by KK, Jigar Saraiya, Shreya Ghoshal and Nitika Kanwar, has a power-packed start with a strong musical arrangement. It is soaked in Punjabi flavour and will be liked by many.

"Bebo" is next song in this album. Even though the lyrics are unimpressive, the song succeeds in catching the attention of the listener. Sung by Neeraj Sridhar and Anushka Manchanda, it is sure to be a hit at the DJ consoles. Free flowing and full of attitude, "Bebo" is worth a listen and a dance.

"Beautiful woman" by Sridhar again, along with Sowmya Raoh. The song is quite boring and slow-paced.

Finally, there is the title track "Do knot disturb" sung by T.K. Karthik and Anushka. A lot of beats but nothing extraordinary.

Overall, the album offers nothing great. The songs are average and will not linger on for long.

Wanted - Music Review

Read more! Cast :: Salman Khan, Ayesha Takia, Mahesh Manjrekar, Asseem Merchant, Sajid Nadiadwala, Vinod Khanna.

Composer duo Sajid-Wajid are well known for producing music that is high on beats. They have stuck to their signature style in there album of "Wanted" too, but the music is not much inspiring enough as it lacks some freshness.

Directed by southern dancing star Prabhu Deva and produced by Boney Kapoor, the film's album has seven originals songs and five remixes.

"Dil leke", The two talented and successful singer Shaan and Shreya Ghoshal have sung this song with pleasure. This is romantic number and both duo has done there best. The song doesn't entail too many electronic beats and the lyrics are average, but the track does have some potential.

The song also has a remixed version, but the original is much better.

"Ishq Vishq", which has western beats in abundance. Sung by Kamaal Khan, Sunidhi Chauhan and Suzanne D'Mello, it is a so-so track, the lyrics being mediocre.

This song too has a remix version.

"Jalwa", which has a long prelude with the 'dhol' taking precedence. The number raises expectations in the beginning but falls flat soon after. The quality of music and lyrics are disappointing. Even though there are touches of hip-hop, it is not fresh enough. The number is sung by composer Wajid along with Earl.

A remix version is thrown in for this track as well.

"Le le mazaa le" has an Arabic feel and brings back memories of the hit song "Mayya mayya" from the film "Guru", but it might not go on to become a chartbuster. "Le le mazaa" is sung by Suzanne D'Mello, Soumya Raoh, Hrishikesh Kamerkar and Nikita Nigam.

Wajid gets behind the mike yet again along with Amrita Kak for "Love me, love me". With monotonous lyrics and no innovation in music, the track isn't likely to hold the listener's interest for too long.

The remix version of the track is no good either.

"Most Wanted", which is sung by Salman Khan. More than a song, this is a narration and a collection of several dialogues from the film.

"Tose pyaar karte hain", a Bhojpuri styled fast-paced number. Wajid and Sunidhi Chauhan have given their vocals for the song. Like others, this number has nothing extraordinary to boast about.

On the whole, the album disappoints. One expected more from the otherwise talented Sajid-Wajid.

Wake Up Sid - Music Review

Read more! Cast :: Ranbir Kapoor, Konkona Sen Sharma, Anupam Kher, Supriya Pathak, Namit Das, Shikha Talsania, Rahul Khanna.

"Wake Up Sid" is an album upon which many tracks sound the same and leave a listener wanting something more.

"Wake Up Sid" staring young heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor and the sensational Konkona Sen Sharma. The film follows Siddharth Mehra aka Sid (Ranbir Kapoor) as he lives his life doing nothing. He's fresh out of college and just wants to chill. In true Bollywood fashion boy meets girl, in this case Konkona and the story unfolds from there.

The Movie has 6 soundtracks, one which is a remix. From one track to the next, the entire vibe on the album is melodious, cool, even a tad lazy. The music composition is quite impressive and the songs would sound great performed with a live band. However, the track lacks a fun upbeat number, and a classic Bollywood love ballad.

Amongst all the male vocalists we hear Kavita Seth only one on song, 'Iktara.' This adds a lot to the album as Kavita's powerful and soulful voice helps describe the emotion we can only imagine the film hopes to relay.

As for the other 4 songs and their mellowness, we turned to 'Wake Up Sid! (Club Mix)' for something inspiring to only find it has been sped up just a little. The album is one that seems can only be fully appreciated when heard in the film as they tell us a story.

In the past when we have heard the word remix we have gotten upbeat, techno, club tracks. Having heard the first 5 songs on the "Wake Up Sid" soundtrack and wanting something different and fun we could only hope that the remix would add that spice. Unfortunately the remix sounds nothing like the traditional ones we have heard and seems pretty pointless.

"Wake Up Sid" seems incomplete with just 5 tracks, it is not a soundtrack that can stand alone, rather is more of a compliment to its film. With Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy as the producers and Javed Akthar as the lyricist we expected one dance number or one classic Bollywood number for when the hero and heroine meet.. We guess the album does reflect Sid's attitude in the movie, but the album does seem to fall flat. The album will appeal to all those who enjoy listening to bands and chill music. It may be an album you enjoy listening to as you cruise down the freeway, but we think you can just pass up the album altogether.

Dil Bole Hadippa - Music Review

Read more! Cast :: Shahid Kapoor, Rani Mukherjee,
Poonam Dhillon, Anupam Kher, Dalip Tahil, Rakhi Sawant, Sherlyn Chopra, Vrajesh Hirjee.

Pritam Chakraborty now is not a new name in Indian/bollywood music world. He has already directed some most famous movie’s music - Love Aaj Kal, Life Partner, New York, Love Khichdi and now Dil Bole Hadippa. Dil Bole Hadippa movie is based on fun and entertainment of love and romance. As a lyricist of Dil Bole Hadippa, Jaideep Sahni has also tried to put some great musical tune.

“Discowale Khisko” is the first song of movie. The song is the most important of the movie and has taken maximum time. It is meaningful song on rhythmic lyrics. The song establishes “Desi” music rather than “Disco” music. It shows the proud of “Desi” music and ignores English music and dance. Great music with the combination of Punjabi Bhangara.

“Ishq Hi Rab Hai” is the second song of movie. The song begins with slow-paced background music but soon it appears with vocal tune music. It is mix-up of Punjabi song and music. Music of the song is tuning in background. It is cultural song of Punjab. Music and is very sweet but not vocal.

“Bhangra Bistar” is also a Punjabi song. It is real Punjabi Bhangra song on a Punjabi Bhangra music. The song begins with echo music which is in background. It is a situational song of Punjabi culture. This is lively song which put the traditional music of Punjab.

“Gym Shim” is rap song of Dil Bole Hadippa music which establishes also true Indian music. There are some English words in the song but music is fully dedicated to Indian, Punjabi Bhangra. It is rap song in spite of, there is all about Punjabi Bhangra music.

“Disco Khisko (Remix)” is Remix song of Dil Bole Hadippa music. The song is not much different from its original “Discowale Khisko”. Yes, there is some fast music from its original song.

“Hadippa (Remix)” song of Dil Bole Hadippa music is situational song. The song establishes the meaning of Hadippa.

“Hadippa” is last song of movie. It is original song of “Hadippa (Remix)”. Music is similar in both songs. Yes, there is slow-motion music in original song.

Overall, all the music and songs of Dil Bole Hadippa are enthusiastic to Punjabi Bhangra and Punjabi culture. There are remix song also in Dil Bole Hadippa music but all are dedicated to “Indian Desi” fun and entertainment.

There is no hesitation about the success of Dil Bole Hadippa music in spite of, Punjabi Bhangra, rap and music in all songs. They have been self-possessed very uniquely on the rhythmic lyrics and tunes.

Love Khichdi - Movie Review

Read more! Cast :: Randeep Hooda,Riya Sen,Divya Dutta,Rituparna Sengupta,Sonali Kulkarni,Kalpana Pandit,Jessy Randhawa,Saurabh Shukla,Sada.

In movie, Randeep Hooda meets seven different women/girls in his life and after the introduction of each one of them, it is clear who would be the one he would want to settle down with. However, this is not a point of discussion here. The point here is the entire journey that the protagonists take that leads to intolerance in the viewers towards the latter half.

To credit the writer-director though, he doesn't make Randeep look, act and behave like one cool stud Casanova who would sweep women off their feet. Yes, the man here does feel that he is capable of doing so but in the end, there is nothing heroic about him as he just comes across as a regular good looking man in his mid-20s.

So whether it is a much married Punjabi neighbour (Divya Dutta), a pencil thin model (Jesse Randhawa), a globe-trotting entrepreneur (Kalpana Pandit) or even his voluptuous maid (Sonali Kulkarni), he has the hots for each of one them.

Yes, he does come close to falling in love with a woman (Rituparna Sengupta) and eventually does find true love as well (in Sadaa Sayed). The only female that he avoids though is the mini skirt-wearing schoolgirl Riya Sen.

The thinks that make “Love Khichdi” interesting at junctures is the entire 'talking to the camera' narrative that the director applies. Proving the adage 'Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus', the film shows what a man and a woman would think about the same situation.

However, a couple of tracks don't work at all. The one with Rituparna Sengupta bores every time it appears in the narrative while the one with Kalpana Pandit could have been totally chopped off.

Jesse's track lasts just one scene though one wouldn't have minded seeing more of Riya Sen. As for Sonali Kulkarni, she is there mainly to get some talk heavy portions around men and their qualities.

The track that gets the most laughs is the one with Divya Dutta. She is the life of the movie for the first half of the film as she sparkles in each of the scenes that she appears.

The film though eventually boils down to be the show reel for the lead couple - Randeep and Sadaa. Sadaa gets maximum footage out of the seven women and does complete justice to her part in her debut Bollywood venture. She is beautiful, confident and her experience in films down south shows. "Love Khichdi" is bound to get her noticed.

As for Randeep, he can rest assured that despite of the film's fate at the box office, he would be seen in a new light from here on. He doesn't have the usual 'stud boy' role in the film and still manages to shine in most of his scenes.

Daddy Cool - Movie Review

Read more! Cast :: Sunil Shetty, Aarti Chhabria, Aashish Chaudhary, Tulip Joshi, Aaftab Shivdasani, Javed Jaffrey, Kim Sharma, Sophie Choudry, Rajpal Yadav, Chunky Pandey, Suhasini Mulay, Vijay Patkar, Prem Chopra, Vrajesh Hirjee.

The remake may not necessarily be as exciting as the original ones. That's what you recognize when you watch the Hindi version of DEATH AT A FUNERAL called DADDY COOL. Sadly, DADDY COOL is just not cool. There are plenty of reasons why..

First, this supposedly laugh riot fails to tickle your funny bone, excepting in a scene or two.

Second, the concept is more suited for a play. Setting an entire film on one location, with the story taking place in a span of a few hours, is not too electrifying.

DADDY COOL tries so hard to make you laugh, but falls flat on its face. The adverse part is, comedy in Hindi movies is now relegated to making faces on camera and that's what most actors in DADDY COOL do.

Another thing that goes against the film is its humour. It's stupid and rough. In this film, men roam around either in shirts, showing off their underpants [Chunky Pandey] or stand on a roof with just underclothes [Aftab Shivdasani] or tell people to remove their underclothes so that they can relieve themselves in a toilet [Prem Chopra asks Jaaved Jaffery to do so].

It is not understandable that what kind of comedy is this?

Chaos erupts during the funeral of Douglas [Sharat Saxena] when the grieved mourners are struck by drugs, romance, envy and a outrageous secret, all of which befall the family and friends.

Director K Murali Mohan Rao has directed several attractive films in the past, but what's this? Sure, DADDY COOL has a few entertaining moments, like the one when Rajpal Yadav reveals the secret [that Sharat Saxena was gay and Rajpal and he were lovers], but the remaining sub-plots fail to cut ice. Adding multiple sub-plots is fine as long as each sub-plot has something interesting to say, but that is what missing in the movie. Even the end is so bizarre, with members of this detached family suddenly professing love for one another.

There's just one song [Raghav Sachar] at the start [a tuneful number] and one towards the end. Dialogues are strictly okay.

With a weak screenplay on hand, there's not much the actors can do. The ones who try hard and manage are Suniel Shetty, Jaaved Jaffery, Sophie Choudry, Chunky Pandey and Prem Chopra.

On the whole, DADDY COOL fails to deliver what it promises - laughter and entertainment.
