Ek Vivaah... Aisa Bhi |
To bring the album to a close we have another Rafi Saab style romantic track, 'Neend Mein Hai'. In fact the musical arrangements, lyrics all take us back to the Rajendra Kumar era where light romantic tracks ruled the hearts. Though the chaste Urdu lyrics takes one by surprise here. The reason being that the whole album is full of Hindi and at times quite difficult to comprehend .Anyway, the song serves as a nice deviation and diversion for those romantic at hearts who miss the songs of the bygone era.
To sum up, let us return to how we started- Ravindra Jain and the resurrection of Rajshri banner through 'Vivah'! Just about two years back while reviewing the music of 'Vivah' we had predicted ( http://www.bollyvista.com/article/a/31/7096/4/ ) – "Sooraj is basically trying to target his traditional Rajshri fan base and he succeeds in that. His target audience will love 'Vivah', though reviewers may not. However, the overall success of the album will obviously depend on the outcome of the movie. If that happens, Rajshri will be back on track, after their recent debacles." And that is exactly how it went! However in case of 'Ek Vivaah... Aisa Bhi', one feels that the traditional bit has been overdone, musically. It will restrict the appeal of the melodious album to pockets. The lack of promos too do not augur well for the film. Unless and until Rajshri pull up their sock, the audio as well as the film may just miss the bus this time around, especially as there is no Shahid-Amrita pair also!
