A Still from 'Bluff Master' |
'The Gateway Theme' commences with Riteish animatedly mouthing dialogues in Amitabh's ('Agneepath')style. Like most theme instrumentals, this one too has good orchestral support (provided by Sameeruddin). The Philharmonic Orchestra (Schubert style) has a soothing effect and will be appreciated by the lover's of English classical music.
We then encounter the 'Do Aur Do Paanch Remix'. The original 'Do Aur Do Paanch' starred Abhishek's dad Amitabh along with Shashi Kapoor. Interesting to note here that the theme of the two movies is the same (both are con movies) and may be that is why it appears as a remixed version with the usual upped tempo and beats.
The album finally comes to a close with 'Come Fishing'/Bluff Master! Theme'. It has nothing new to offer except for a mixture of many dialogues by the main protagonists of the movie and with both soft and heavy musical accompaniments.
On the whole, 'Bluff Master!' is more like a sibling of the abundantly available remixed albums out today. Like us, you may believe that old classics (especially from the 50s and 60s) should not be tampered with. Yes, "Right Here, Right Now" is the saving grace and might be a strong enough reason go ahead and buy 'Bluff Master!'. After hearing the whole album (especially after the melodious 'Kuch Naa Kaho'), we feel that Rohit has done a good con job and we feel bluffed!
