A Still from 'Gangster' |
Soft synthesized music, along with a beautiful harmonica piece, mark the beginning of the nice, pleasing to the ears romantic number, "Lamha Lamha". Abhijeet is good in his solo version. But to keep up with the fresh lot of talented singers, he should innovate a bit now and go in for new styles, otherwise he will fade away like some of the other once big names. The chorus in this composition too has been well used.
The basic arrangement of the other version of " Lamha Lamha" is on similar lines to the first one, except that Sunidhi gives able company to Abhijeet.
Next up is the rock based Sufi-styled composition "Ya Ali", sung by Zubeen, who hails from Assam. Though the tune is based on a Middle Eastern composition, what makes this track unique is the excellent use of violin and 'rubab', synthesized 'been' and bagpipes like sounds. It is basically a 'tasawwuf' song, (sung in the praise of the almighty, as akin to the beloved), that ends with Pritam's very own 'Dhoom' signature tune. The lyrics are situational, yet classy. Zubeen has done a good job, though not great, as his voice lacks the depth and feelings needed for this very intense composition. |
