A Still from 'Barsaat' |
Next we have 'Mushkil' with Abhijeet and Alka. She starts off effortlessly with "Ye jo dil hai, Kisi pe aa jaaye to, Mushkil hai." The song is a light love ballad and pleasing to the ears. We must say, Nadeem-Shravan have this (along with Sameer) knack of creating songs, which are not only pleasant but also easy to sing/hum. No wonder they are lapped up by the masses. Although a word about Abhijeet, he makes it too sweet, in fact saccharine sweet. One fails to understand why N-S opted for him.
Next we have "Pyaar Aaya", which is a leisurely paced, soft romantic yesteryear type duet, featuring Sonu and Alka. It is quite unlike any N-S number, with heavy influences of '1942 - A love Story ' (in fact the beginning is quite reminiscent of the "Ek Ladki Ko Dekha"). The song has some nice yet simple lyrics like, "Pyaar aaya, Aur zyada, Pyaar aaya, Dekha jini baar tumko." Alka and Sonu do a good job in this decent track but once again one misses Sanu in a song tailor-made for him, as the song could have been better!
The only track where the melodious Alka is missing is "Nakhre" and justifiably so. Alisha Chinoy, more famous for her sexy, passionate numbers, modulates her voice to give that 'haughty, high and mighty touch' required for this track (picturized on Bipasha). The situational, fast paced dance number, a combination of Indian, Western (rap), Bhangra and 'Nakhre' rocks. This is one track that will be enjoyed by the female audience. Check out the 'liberated female lyrics: "Haath utha ke zara gol ghoom ja, Phoolon wala gajra joode mein saja, Mere sang mundiye nach ke dikha, Shaadi jo kiya hai tune, To ab nakhre bhi utha." This is one of the top tracks of 'Barsaat'. |
