If you cannot get over Reshma's 'Lambi Judai', wait till you hear the queen of folk numbers, Richa Sharma rendering her version of Kamran Ahmed's 'Judaai'. Though tune wise the version is the same as the male version, but the lyrics are different. More Punjabi has been used here. Richa's prowess is her easy rendition of high notes that have been utilized well, as she gives a fine demonstration of her skills. This was missing in the male version.
Kamran's heart wrenching 'O Rabba' and unidentified female vocals whispering "Something in the air, Something in the sound," commences the 'Lambi Judai-Kilogram Mix'. As it's a remixed version, the pace has been enhanced to give it that club touch and English lyrics have been used to make it more up market and of course the synthesizer too has been abundantly used. A nice job all the same.
A lovely oriental rhythm, a throwback to Gangster, commences the light, soft romantic track, 'Zara Sa'. A trademark Pritam composition, which has the capabilities of striking a chord with the romantics at heart, has been sung to perfection by K.K., Pritam's favourite. The ease with which he renders the song is amazing, as he simulates the wonderful feelings of love with his superlative singing. Pritam's makes him croon "Wo, O, O, O", Ganjawala style (just like he did earlier with other singers) and it has become a rage among the youth, like Kishore Da's yodeling. The rhythm is nice, smooth, almost flowing and the arrangements with light guitar and soft percussion instruments has been widely used.
String sounds commence the 'Zara Sa-Power Ballad' and it's a ballad alright with K.K.'s vocals sounding loud and clear against minimum musical addendums in the background. There is a strong hint of rock and even K.K's singing takes on a rockish touch in the version. Only the chorus with the crooning remain. |
