Another Bhangra pop 'U&I', sung by our very own Sonu Nigam follows next. And this one too features thrice; twice as remixes. But when compared to the rocking first track 'Shake It', it is good but not in the same league. Mayur Puri has given some very innovative and happening lyrics. Sonu is a bit off colour and so is not at his innovative best. Quite a nice composition, more of the type that will find patronage with the Overseas (specially U.K) bhangra lovers.
The next version 'U&I-Dil Se Mile Dil' is definitely much peppier than than the first one, as the composer Pritam himself joins the much in demand KK. And of course the result is terrific, as both complement each other to the hilt and raise the slightly bland bhangra pop number to a level which is highly enjoyable by one and all.
"Let's Do Balle Balle-U&I" has Labh Janjua (who is now a familiar name , having sung for many hindi films ,the recent being Pritam's 'Pyaar Ke Side Effects') and Rana Mazumdar making the listners go "Balle Balle". Labh Janjua's Punjabi lyrics are easy to understand and quite nice. All in all a decent job.
Next in line is 'Jat Yamla', Pritam's tribute to 'Garam-Dharam' or 'He-Man', Dharmendra, with Sunny Deol emulating his dad's dance steps so perfectly (in the promos) that we are bound to feel nostalgic. The beauty of this happy-go-lucky cum comaraderie (between Sunny and Viveik) number is that, despite the fact that Western arrangements (specially bagpipe) dominating, the earthy/rustic beauty comes out strong. Himachali folk music is present in parts as the movie has been extensively shot in the beautiful locales of the hill state (Manali & Leh). Good to hear Sonu Nigam in peak form and at his innovative best, modulating his vocals to perfection to suit that of Sunny. Shreya Ghoshal joins him briefly. To sum it up, a number that will be loved by all, specially Sunny fans.
