Instead of going for a fresh tune, Anand Raj Anand revisits his favourite tune, 'Dil De Diya Hai' (Masti) for the next number, 'Jeevein Bulliyaan Pe'. The problem is that Anand has done this quite a few times. Here, even the antara is the same, as he rehashes his old tune completely. However, he does an excellent job as a singer. The background music arrangements create the sad, haunting atmosphere needed for the serious situation.
Kailash Kher's heartfelt rabba commences, 'Zamana Se Keh do'. It is a sad, situational track that will be picturised as a stage performance track. The song is high on emotional content; a tragic love song, which later gets converted into another fast-paced dance track. Yet, too much of the synthesizer, drums and plate sounds create a cacophonous environment. One wishes that ARA stuck to the basics and made Kailash do what he is best at - singing Sufi rock. The song at the start indeed was shaping up like that, so were the lyrics, but somehow the song changed tracks, maybe because Mimoh plays a dancing star in the film.
There are two numbers composed by Bappa Lahiri, son of Bappi Lahiri. Let us see if he has inherited his father's talent or not. The first number is 'Marhaba', a routine dance track. The rhythm is inspired by Anu Malik's number from Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega, 'Aisa Pehli Baar'. It is a stage performance oriented number. Is it the same Debojit Saha winner of the talent hunt singing here? Maybe, but the singer is definitely not in his elements. He tries too many voice modulations and innovations but fails to lift this dull track. The lyrics too are crappy. Just imagine "Marhaba, Yeh rab mera rooth gay. Dil mera sheeshe sa toot gaya." Indeed funny, why use Arabic words just for the heck of it? |
