One intense love number gives way to another, but 'Dhoom Tere Ishq Ki' is class apart. First of all, it is Himesh's original melody (superb raga based), along with traditional Indian instruments have been prominently used, and Himesh's rendition is top class. Lovely santoor, sitar, flute and tabla provide the perfect backdrop for this masterpiece. A superb fusion of "Sufi" and semi-classical, the song is delight in this era of hip-hop and rock. There is a brief mention (intentionally) of Rafi saab's immortal love ballad from Karz 'Darde Dil' (Himesh's favourite) too - "Aur thodi der mein hum juda ho jayeinge". All compliments to Sameer who dared to take up the challenge and create totally new (albeit on a similar track) lyrics and made the number a mesmerizing one.
Nice combo of sitar and guitar strumming along with rap commence 'Sisak Sisak Ke', a situational, most probably a stage performance number. The melody itself is no great shakes (inspired from 'Koi Shehri Babu') but the background musical arrangements have been tastefully done. The nice rhythm (guitar strumming sounding like 'ektara') in the background and Himesh's singing (rock like in part) are the USP of the track.
'Sisak Sisak Ke-Club and Lounge Mix' is another remix that Akbar has spent time on. The ample use of saxophone (which finds a mention even in the rap portions) and some great drumming makes it worth hearing.
Violin, tabla and Himesh's well loved (hated by some too!) nasal crooning, a la 'Aashiq Banaya Apne', commence 'Tere Bin Chain Na Aave', another number that has the trademark Himesh stamped all over it. The number is inspired in the beginning by the super hit 'Dil Kya Kare' (Julie). Sameer's lyrics deserve credit in this intense love duet. Tulsi Kumar is screechy in parts, although the number has Himesh written all over it.
The 'Tere Bin Chain Na Aave-Club and Lounge Mix' is a space filler, though it does not test anyone's patience and is an average effort by Akbar Sami. |
