A lot is being said and written about three Bollywood journalists turning directors but they are quite different from each other. Kunal Kohli ('Hum Tum', 'Mujhse Dosti Karogi') was very lucky to get a break with Yash Raj and was more into 'partisan' box-office and reviews due to which he had leave Zee (‘Chalo Cinema') and later Star Plus (‘Hello Cinema'). Khalid Mohammed who has directed 'Fiza' and 'Tehzeeb' is more into Bollywood reviews in the print media and is still active.
'Kuch Meetha Ho Jaye' director Samar Khan is not as lucky as Kunal or Khalid but still gets a 'Shemaroo' production and is a former TV journalist for Star Plus and was more into news and interviews for them. Lets check out the music of his directorial debut venture.
The first track 'Bhool Jayenge Hum' has some decent lyrics by Sameer ' Bhool jayenge hum saari duniya ke gham, Ek pal, Do Ghadhi, Tum milo to Sanam‘. It's soft romantic though routine Reshammiya romantic duet. Udit and Shreya vibe well and sound good together. There is also a ditto space filler of ‘Bhool Jayenge Hum'.
The title track 'Kuch Meetha Ho Jaye' has some different lyrics by Sameer, 'Yun rootho na tum, Mehbooba, Hans do to chain aa jaye, Haan kuch meetha ho jaye. It's a very soothing to ear type of song, which is an absolute delight. Himesh proves why he is so much in circulation these days, especially for melodious compositions. The intermingling of the classical instruments like 'sitar' and flute is wonderful and sound quite soothing. It's a song to perk up a depressed mood. There is a just a hint of Himesh's 'O Jaana' from his super hit album 'Tere Naam'. Some good vocals by Sonu, Shreya and Jayesh Gandhi.
