The two handsome Punjabi jats, Punjab da puttar, Sunny Deol and his younger brother, Bobby Deol come together to create another 'dhamaal' on-screen (after Apne) with the typical bhangra pop 'Makhna'. The number may sound familiar as the tune is based on a popular 'bhangra' based Punjabi folk tune In fact, the start is reminiscent of Sajid Wajid's 'Aaja Soniye' (Mujhse Shaadi Karogi) and this rollicking rhythm continues to be the backbone of the track. The boisterous fun number, which is romantically inclined in the beginning, takes the shape of a patriotic song with Sukhwinder going all out as he bells out 'Mera Bharat Mahaan Hai'. The signature tune of 'Rang De Basanti' (which too was Punjabi folk inspired) has also been used intelligently by the composers. Sukhwinder dominates the track with his earthy, robust full of feelings vocals and Soumya Raoh lends oomph with her pop, angelized accent. The number is sure to set the dance floor ablaze and will have the public dancing in the aisles in Punjab and adjoining places.
'Makhana–Killer Mix' is not exactly a remix that one could kill for, as the tune is too fast paced and does no good to the superb original.
All North Indian dialect prevails as the raunchy item number 'Badmash Launde' unfolds and one is simply aghast as the composer, Monty (of Saawariya fame) has shamelessly lifted Geeta Dutt's evergreen, classic, "Piya Aiso Jiya Mein" (Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam) and turned it into a rather cheap dance track. And he does not stop at that, as with the 'antara' he tries to unsuccessfully recreate the magic of Vishal Bhardwaj's chartbuster, 'Beedi' (Omkara). Shail Hada ( pop singer), Parthiv Gohil and Rekha Rao are entrusted with the task of delivering the track and they are just about okay. The composition is a good concept gone horribly wrong because of the inspirations.
'Badmash Launde-Blasted Mix' is the usual all pace, heightened rhythm remix that one is used to in these days of remix culture. |
