Way back in 1999, director E. Niwas, an assistant to Ramgopal Varma, made many sit up with his hard-hitting, 'Shool'. "Dilwalon Ke Dil Ka Qarar Lootne" from 'Shool' still remains as one of the highlight item numbers of Shilpa Shetty's career. He then shifted gears and switched to a totally different genre, comedy, with his next offering 'Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega' (2001), and who can forget the lovable tapori number, "Aslam Bhai" from that movie.
Unfortunately, both the movies failed to do much at the box-office. But E. Niwas need not worry, as this time he has the lucky composer, Pritam, who enjoys an almost hundred percent success ratio at the ticket window. Be it the superhit 'Bhool Bhilaiyaa' and 'Jab we Met', or even movies like 'Dhol' and 'Goal' turned out to be above average fares. And apart from Pritam, E.Niwas has India's first true rockstar in the form of Himesh to lend a helping hand, in the music department. So lets see what the latest offering, 'My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves', which is a product of the prestigious Red Chilli Banner, (now procured by Sahara One Motion Pictures) has in store for us music lovers.
Guest composer, Himesh Reshammiya starts proceedings with "Tum Mile", a breezy and youthful love song. Himesh's fans were disappointed with his last work in WELCOME as both his compositions, "Kola Laka Vellary" and "Insha Allah" failed to lift their spirits. But they need not worry, as Himesh has not lost any of his magical touch. This is proved once again, as "Tum Mile" is vinatage Himesh. The Himesh we loved and adored in 'Tere Naam' and 'Kyunki'. This song may not rank amongst the above mentioned numbers, but is definitely a very classy piece of work. Sunidhi and K.K. fit in perfectly with the mood of the song with their amazing voice modulations. The background chorus and very light musical arrangements, consisting of a touch of plates, nice guitaring etc. serve to enhance the romantic feel of the song.
Dispersed vocals, lovely synthesized music announces the start of "Tum Mile-Remix". Amit Das needs to be commended for the deft handling of the remix and not traversing down the beaten path. As a result the original flavour remains intact and new musical addendum adds to the charm. |
