High string base guitar, accompanied by the usual rap and reggae commence 'Mehbooba-Remix' by D.J. A-Myth, who has definitely worked hard to give that extra zing and flavour to the number. The original 'Mehbooba' tune has been put to good use, as in the original and so is Panchamda's nasal crooning. But can someone tell us what Bachchan's mindblasting 'Kabhi Kabhi Mere Dil Mein Khyal Aata Hai' is doing here? Isn't it a 'Sholay' remake? Or, is it just an attempt to cash in on India's megastar?
'Ruk Ja' is supposed to be the 'Koi Haseena Jab Rooth Jati Hai' counterpart in this RGV's 'Sholay' remake, but when we see the song, it's more familiar to the Aamir-Urmila number from Ramu's only super hit, 'Rangeela', 'Yaaron Sun Lo Zara', by A.R Rahman. The setting, the choreography and the carefree tapori style reminds us of the above mentioned track. Vinod Rathod is a misfit in these types of numbers, as his vocals are base. Maybe he is Devgan's voice in the film. Lyrics by Sajid-Farhad is run of the mill. In brief, Amar Mohile disappoints.
If Vinod Rathod was a misfit in the above track, he sure makes amends with the next one, 'Dum', as it is more up his alley. An inspirational, aggressive RGV-ish style track with some good situational lyrics by Sharim Momin, which literally translated states "Have guts, show it!". It's a tension-filled track that does set the adrenalin pumping and will definitely be used in the background, as the lead protagonists set forth to fight the main villain. |
