Aap Kaa Surroor |
'Tere Bina' commences with a slightly mysterious sounding, church-like chorus, as Himesh's blockbuster mukhda - ,Ae huzoor, Tera tera tera surroor, is followed by the superb theme music of the movie. When the mukhda of 'Tera Surroor' begins, we instantly draw our own conclusion that it is the number from his music album that rocketed Himesh to the top bracket, smacking the faces of all his detractors when this album hit an all time high. But 'Tere Bina' is a typical 'missing-the–sweetheart' but still a cute number. Himesh sings and speaks with feeling when he says the famous couplet by Gulzar (but half), ,Kabhi kisi ko muqammal jahan nahin milta,, and we complete it ,Kabhi zameen to kabhi asmaan nahih milta.,
The 'Tere Bina - Remix' can be given a listen, even though it's the usual upped tempo and beats, complete with a female background chorus.
Coming to 'Tere Bina - Unplugged', apart from the use of the theme music, there is a hint of guitar strumming in the background and only Himesh's sharp vocals rule in this brief version.
,Tu hai jaise rab di meher (you are a blessing from the Almighty), Kya jeena, Jeena kya, Tere Baghair, Jeena mera kya, Tere baghair., These lovely romantic lyrics by Sameer commence this petal-soft, solo love song 'Kya Jeena' by Himesh.
It can be termed as quite a unique number. The semi-classical inclusions rendered by the talented Jayesh Gandhi, along with the use of Indian musical instruments like the tabla, veena, sitar, dafli and beads, all combine to lend it that lovable classical touch. Himesh demonstrates that he can sing even without the support of too much music in the background, though once again his bad diction (bagair) spoils the beautiful song. The Himesh and Jayesh 'jugalbandi' is good and all these succeed in making this a good composition, which will find appreciation.
Jayesh's semi-classical renditions are sharper, more effective and the musical arrangements are well done and not cacophonous, and as a result the 'Kya Jeena - Remix' by Akbar Sami is a job well done.
