Music composer, old warhorse, Ravindra Jain resurrected a rather down and out Rajshri Production banner with some soul touching and traditional music in their super hit, Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao starrer, 'Vivah'. Obviously the music to the follow up project, 'Ek Vivaah... Aisa Bhi' is expected to be on the same lines as their previous hit album. And, naturally the banner has once again chosen their lucky mascot, Ravindra Jain to provide music and lyrics for the project. However, we must add here that it's not the talented director Sooraj Barjatya at the helm of affairs but an outside director, Kaushik Ghatak, who has been assigned the task of direction. So, lets check out in detail the latest offering from this prestigious banner.

Some lovely sitar strings sounds commence 'Mujhme Zinda Hai Woh', a pleasant sounding romantic composition with a nice melodic feel to it. The song appears twice in the album , the second is merely an extension of the first number. Shaan and Shreya Ghoshal come together in a number that has an old world charm written all over it, with its superb lyrics and lovely traditional instruments. Shreya's semi-classical touch to the song lend class to it and Shaan with his youthful exuberance is superb as always. Ravindra Jain proves that age is no barrier when it comes to romance as the poetry that he has penned for the number is delightfully simple yet appealing. "Mujhme zinda hai woh, Usme zinda hoon main, Meri duniya hai woh, Uski duniya hoon main".

'Dekhe Akele Humne Solah Mele' is once again pure, pristine number with the classical Indian raga as its backdrop. A pining for the beloved number, Ravindra Jain-Rajshri style the composition has a very rustic feel to it, reminiscent of the 'Saawan Ko Aane Do' and 'Chitchor' days. Shreya gets to render a number which makes maximum use of her singing prowess and she delivers, no doubt. Its targeted at the Hindi heartland audience and that is where it will work.
