A Still from 'Barsaat' |
Sapna Awasthi and Nadeem-Shravan ruled India with "Pardesi Pardesi" ('Raja Hindustani') and this time the two come together again for "Chori Chori Ladi Akhiyaan." The track also has Udit Narayan and Alka Yagnik. Sapna begins in her 'nasal-folk' voice "Na samjhe nayan ki bhasha, Maaro sajan harjaee, Raama duhai, Samajh gaye hain saare log lugai." Then the present melody queen Alka takes over and is immediately joined by Udit.
It is a typically Indian song, with traditional 'Hindustani' arrangements (complete with dholak, tabla and sarangi). N-S are in top form and the track should turn out to be extremely popular with the masses, if picturized properly in the movie. Once again we have Alka in "Aaja Aaja" as she calls out to the 'piya', "Aaja aaja piya ab to aaja, Dekh to kaisi haalat hui hai." Alka lifts an average song that has the arrangements similar to that used for a 'qawwali'. It is a song of pain, separation and 'intezar' (wait).
Violin, flute and piano sounds highlight the pain and the hurt in Alka's solo "Maine Tumse Pyaar Bahut Kiya". The simple lyrics by Sameer are the highlight of the song - "Maine tumse pyaar bahut kiya, Mera tumse pyaar ab nahin, Tera aetbaar bahut kiya, Tera aetbaar ab nahin." The lyrics are such that they are easily identifiable by anyone and everyone. |
